This library is meant to be a fairly expansive encryption replacement to Laravel's built in methods. The goals is that by default it will replace the encryption and the hashing mechanisms of Laravel with compatible methods powered by Simple API Security.
First thing you need to do is install the components you want to replace in Laravel in your app.cfg file from your config directory.
In app.cfg replace Illuminate\Encryption\EncryptionServiceProvider::class with SimpleAPISecurity\Laravel\Providers\EncryptionProvider::class.
In app.cfg replace Illuminate\Hashing\HashServiceProvider::class with SimpleAPISecurity\Laravel\Providers\HashProvider::class.
