How to logout and redirect to login page using Laravel 5.4?

Question

In your web.php (routes):

add:

Route::get('logout', '\App\Http\Controllers\Auth\LoginController@logout');

In your LoginController.php

add:

public function logout(Request $request) {
  Auth::logout();
  return redirect('/login');
}

Also, in the top of LoginController.php, after namespace

add:

use Auth;

Now, you are able to logout using yourdomain.com/logout URL or if you have created logout button, add href to /logout
