Auth::user() returns null value

0

I'm working on username authentication. I thought my LoginController is working perfectly.But when i go to the page and do login.The page will be stay on login page.I checked my code,when i use dd(Auth::user()) in my HomeController. it always return null value.

i read some discussion on stackoverflow.People said i have to use this in the loginController's constructor.

$this->middleare(function($request,$next){
    $this->user=Auth::user();
    return $next($request)
})

but it doesn't work in my project.

I'm sure the only reason why my login page cannot redirect to the next page is because the Auth::user() have null value.But i don't know how to fix that.

can someone help me??

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->middleware('guest')->except('logout');

    protected function authenticated(Request $request)
    {
        if (Auth::attempt(['username' => $request['username'], 'password' => $request['password']])) {

            return redirect('/');
        }
    }
    public function username()
