Logout Event

So, maybe you should check on the "new login" if you have a logged in user and log him out manually - and flush the session in this particular case ?

Is the event now called 'Illuminate\Auth\Events\Logout' ?

I shouldn't have to, it should work... maybe the listener is wrong? I tried to dump some variable on the auth.logout and it didn't trigger.

the last event class is correct, there is a list of some changed event names in the docs, https://laravel.com/docs/5.2/upgrade , do a ctr+f and for events and there is table. I like the class name set up better then the dot notation, mainly because of how it looks...

So how would I trigger an event on logout now?

If you are using an auth driver registered with laravel, the event is fired for you, then you just have to listen for it. if it is not being fired for you then you could create you on event and then fire it inside the controller method that handles your logout route.

if you are just listening for that event auth event I would write a listener, App\Listeners\UserLoggedOut, then in App\Providers\EventServiceProvider you should see an array, listen. Register your listener in that array, if it were named the same as the example I gave, you could register the listener like below. A listener has to have a handle method which will be called when the even is fired. if you want to listen for all User Auth events you can create an event subscriber class that has methods like onLogout, onLogin, etc.

Reading through the examples in the docs really helped me understand the event system.

     */
    protected $listen = [
        'Illuminate\Auth\Events\Logout' => [
            'App\Listeners\UserLoggedOut',
        ],
    ];
