Sharing a users table (or some kind of SSO) with Laravel 4

ashikai

Hello!
Out of all the forum software I've used, Flarum is by far my favorite, so I'm really hoping what I'm asking is possible.
I have a Laravel app that's built on Laravel 4 instead of 5, and I would really like to use Flarum as my forum software for it. Ideally, I'd like to be able to have users register/login via the L4 app and have that auto-sign them into Flaurm (like a SSO)... but I haven't seen anything on this forum that suggests this can be done by any means other than using Passport which requires Laravel 5... and I'm just really not up for upgrading this L4 project right now (I know I'll have to eventually).

Is there a way to get Flaurm and my L4 app to either share my current users table or work with some kind of SSO?
(I'm not hopeful, but it never hurts to ask)
Thanks in advance for your help!

This isn't what you want?

It's like the second post on the main extension page ?

0E800 I did see that, but not until long after I posted this. Still wasn't sure it would work with L4, but I'll be giving it a try!
Thank you for your patience!

I have a L4 project that I can test with as well. Cannot commit to a time table but I think it would benefit the community to have something like this documented / tutorial.

You should consider upgrading to Laravel 5. There's a bunch of new features! You'd be better off in the long run by upgrading to Laravel 5 before trying to implement this new feature.
