Struggling with Route::resource() and 'auth' Middleware

Here is a working example for Controller middleware:

use Illuminate\Routing\Controller;

class AwesomeController extends Controller {

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->middleware('csrf');
        $this->middleware('auth', ['only' => 'update'])
    }

}

Same thing happening with me

@domioanna

Is it just me who can't seem to assign the 'auth' middleware to a Route::resource()?

$router->group(['middleware' => 'your.middleware'], function($router)
{
  $router->resource('resource', 'resourceController');
});

Seems to me that he is also using Laravel 4 like as me. And thats why the issue came. You may also follow this post: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28393231/auth-middleware-with-routeresource/28399352 with a solution here: http://laravel.com/docs/4.2/security#protecting-routes
