Laravel Helper Function: decrypt

decrypt($value)

The decrypt helper function can be used to decrypt a given $value. The function resolves the configured Illuminate\Contracts\Encryption\Encrypter implementation from the Service Container and then calls the decrypt method on the Encrypter instance.

Assuming a variable $encryptedValue exists and contains a previously encrypted value the following examples are all equivalent:

 1<?php
 2 
 3use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Crypt;
 4 
 5$encryptedValue = '...';
 6 
 7// Encrypt using the Crypt facade:
 8Crypt::decrypt($encryptedValue);
 9 
10// Encrypt using the encrypt helper:
11decrypt($encryptedValue);
