[5.3] What is the purpose of "resetNotifier" in "SendsPasswordResetEmails" trait

[ElfSundae]

• Laravel Version: 5.3.9

There is a method resetNotifier in the SendsPasswordResetEmails trait, but it is not called at all. Maybe we should remove it, or add a parameter in PasswordBroker::sendResetLink just like PasswordBroker::reset does.

From the PHPDoc, I guess this method would be used to return a notification like this:

/**
 * Get the Closure which is used to build the password reset notification.
 *
 * @return \Closure
 */
protected function resetNotifier()
{
    return function ($token) {
        return new ResetPasswordNotification($token);
    };
}

Am I right? Then what notification instance will be used if the notifiable object implemented CanResetPassword trait?

You're right, this method is not used and should be deleted. Removed in #15446

To use a custom Notification you need to overwrite the sendPasswordResetNotification in your User model, this method is coming from the Illuminate\Auth\Passwords\CanResetPassword trait.
