How to send the password reset link via email using queue in laravel 5

Question

I am using the ResetsPasswords trait by laravel to implement password reset. What I would like to achieve is to send the email using queue. Digging through the code I found

This is where the Laravel container comes to the rescue. If you don't like the functionality of a core component then you can go ahead and override it fairly painlessly.

First things first you will need to create your own PasswordBroker:

namespace App\Auth\Passwords;

use Illuminate\Auth\Passwords\PasswordBroker as IlluminatePasswordBroker;

class PasswordBroker extends IlluminatePasswordBroker
{

    public function emailResetLink()
    {
        $view = $this->emailView;

        return $this->mailer->queue($view, compact('token', 'user'), function ($m) use ($user, $token, $callback) {
            $m->to($user->getEmailForPasswordReset());
            if (! is_null($callback)) {
                call_user_func($callback, $m, $user, $token);
            }
        });
    }

}

Change your namespace to whatever you want if you want to place it elsewhere in your app.

Since the service provider registering the service is a deferred service provider you will need to create your own provider to replace it. Probably the easiest way to do this is extend Illuminate\Auth\Passwords\PasswordResetServiceProvider with something like the following:

namespace App\Providers;

use App\Auth\Passwords\PasswordBroker;

class PasswordResetServiceProvider extends \Illuminate\Auth\Passwords\PasswordResetServiceProvider
{

    protected function registerPasswordBroker()
    {
        $this->app->singleton('auth.password', function ($app) {
            $tokens = $app['auth.password.tokens'];

            $users = $app['auth']->driver()->getProvider();

            $view = $app['config']['auth.password.email'];

            return new PasswordBroker(
                $tokens, $users, $app['mailer'], $view
            );
        });
    }

}

Finally in your config/app.php file remove Illuminate\Auth\Passwords\PasswordResetServiceProvider::class and add App\Providers\PasswordResetServiceProvider::class to your 'providers' array.

Laravel will now use your implementation of the PasswordBroker rather than the stock framework one and you don't have to worry about modifying framework code.
