Block routes by IP

(inspired on Laravel Firewall)

Laravel 5.x, 6.x, 7.x and 8.x

1. To install through composer, run the following command from terminal:

   $ composer require skydiver/laravel-route-blocker

2. Publish the config file:

   Run the following command to publish the package config file:

   $ php artisan vendor:publish --tag=LaravelRouteBlocker

'providers' => [
    ...
    Skydiver\LaravelRouteBlocker\LaravelRouteBlockerServiceProvider::class,
]

1. Register middlewares in app/Http/Kernel.php on $routeMiddleware array:

       'blacklist' => \Skydiver\LaravelRouteBlocker\Middleware\BlacklistMiddleware::class,
       'whitelist' => \Skydiver\LaravelRouteBlocker\Middleware\WhitelistMiddleware::class,
   

• Blacklist allows all traffic except matching rules.
• Whitelist blocks all traffic except matching rules.
• You can register both or just a single middleware.

2. Create a config group on config/laravel-route-blocker.php and insert your allowed/blocked IPs:

       'whitelist' => [
           'my_group' => [
               '127.0.0.1',
               '192.168.17.0',
               '10.0.1.*'
           ],
           'another_group' => [
               '8.8.8.*'
           ],
       ],
       'blacklist' => [
           'blocked_ips' => [
               '127.0.0.1',
               '192.168.100.0',
           ],
           'blocked_ips2' => [
               '8.8.8.8',
           ],
       ],
   

   • You can create as many blacklist/whitelists groups as you wish and protect differents set of routes with differents IPs

   Also, you can configure to throw an HTTP status code or redirect to a custom URL:

   'redirect_to'      => '',   // URL TO REDIRECT IF BLOCKED (LEAVE BLANK TO THROW STATUS)
   'response_status'  => 403,  // STATUS CODE (403, 404 ...)
   'response_message' => ''    // MESSAGE (COMBINED WITH STATUS CODE)
   

3. Put your protected routes inside a group and specify the whitelist parameter:

       // Only IPs matched on "my_group" will be allowed to access route
       Route::group(['middleware' => 'whitelist:my_group'], function() {
   
           Route::get('/demo', function () {
               return "DEMO";
           });
   
       });
   
       // Only IPs matched on "my_group" will be blocked to access route
       Route::group(['middleware' => 'blacklist:blocked_ips'], function() {
   
           Route::get('/private', function () {
               return "Private Page";
           });
   
       });
   

• To get a list of current IPs groups run:

      $ php artisan route:blocks:groups
  

      +-----------------+--------------+-----------+
      | Group           | IP           | Type      |
      +-----------------+--------------+-----------+
      | allowed_group_1 | 127.0.0.1    | whitelist |
      | allowed_group_1 | 127.0.0.2    | whitelist |
      | allowed_group_1 | 192.168.17.0 | whitelist |
      | allowed_group_1 | 10.0.0.*     | whitelist |
      | allowed_group_2 | 8.8.8.8      | whitelist |
      | allowed_group_2 | 8.8.8.*      | whitelist |
      | allowed_group_2 | 8.8.4.4      | whitelist |
      | blocked_ips_1   | 127.0.0.1    | blacklist |
      | blocked_ips_1   | 127.0.0.2    | blacklist |
      | blocked_ips_1   | 192.168.17.0 | blacklist |
      | blocked_ips_1   | 10.0.0.*     | blacklist |
      | blocked_ips_2   | 8.8.8.8      | blacklist |
      | blocked_ips_2   | 8.8.8.*      | blacklist |
      | blocked_ips_2   | 8.8.4.4      | blacklist |
      +-----------------+--------------+-----------+
  

To manually run test suite:

vendor/bin/phpunit --verbose
