It seems that Laravel 5 by default applies the CSRF filter to all non-get requests. This is OK for a form POST, but might be a problem to an API that POSTs DELETEs etc.
Simple Question:
How can I set a POST route with no CSRF protection?

Go to app/Http/Middleware/VerifyCsrfToken.php
and then enter your routes(for which you want to disable csrf token) in the $except array.
for example:
class VerifyCsrfToken extends BaseVerifier
{
protected $except = [
'/register'
];
}
You can exclude URIs from CSRF by simply adding them to the $except
property of the VerifyCsrfToken
middleware (app/Http/Middleware/VerifyCsrfToken.php):
<?php
namespace App\Http\Middleware;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Http\Middleware\VerifyCsrfToken as BaseVerifier;
class VerifyCsrfToken extends BaseVerifier
{
/**
* The URIs that should be excluded from CSRF verification.
*
* @var array
*/
protected $except = [
'api/*',
];
}

My hack to the problem:
CSRF is now a "middleware" registered globally in App\Http\Kernel.php
. Removing it will default to no CSRF protection (Laravel4 behavior).
To enable it in a route:
Create a short-hand key in your app/Providers/RouteServiceProvider.php :
protected $middleware = [
// ....
'csrf' => 'Illuminate\Foundation\Http\Middleware\VerifyCsrfToken',
];
You can now enable it to any Route:
$router->post('url', ['middleware' => 'csrf', function() {
...
}]);
Not the most elegant solution IMO...
just listen to this. Just before 30 minute i was facing this same problem. Now it solved. just try this.
Goto App -> HTTP-> Kernel
open the kernel file.
there you can see : \App\Http\Middleware\VerifyCsrfToken::class,
just disable this particular code using //
Thatz it! This will work!
So that you can remove the middleware from the API calling (if you want so..)
