How do I manually send a password reset request in Laravel 5.2?

I would like to manually send a password reset request to a specific user (not the one currently logged in) from within a controller. I did some digging around in the Laravel code and it seems like I should be calling postEmail(Request $request) in ResetsPasswords, but I can't seem to figure out how to get access to the right PasswordController instance to call it.

At least since Laravel 8 (and still valid on Laravel 11):

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Password;

Password::sendResetLink(['email' => $email_of_the_user]);

Use this code for send password reset link. here i am API Route for this.

  $this->validate($request, [
        'user_id'    => 'required|int',
    ]);

    $user =  User::find($request->user_id);
    if( $user )
    {
        $credentials = ['email' => $user->email];
        $response = Password::sendResetLink($credentials, function (Message $message) {
            $message->subject($this->getEmailSubject());
        });

        switch ($response) {
            case Password::RESET_LINK_SENT:
                return response()->json([
                    'status'        => 'success',
                    'message' => 'Password reset link send into mail.',
                    'data' =>''], 201);
            case Password::INVALID_USER:
                return response()->json([
                    'status'        => 'failed',
                    'message' =>   'Unable to send password reset link.'
                ], 401);
        }  
    }
    return response()->json([
        'status'        => 'failed',
        'message' =>   'user detail not found!'
    ], 401);

for Web View :

$response = Password::sendResetLink($credentials, function (Message $message) {
            $message->subject($this->getEmailSubject());
        });

       switch ($response) {
            case Password::RESET_LINK_SENT:
                return redirect()->back()->with('status', trans($response));
            case Password::INVALID_USER:
                return redirect()->back()->withErrors(['email' => trans($response)]);
        }

The easiest way:

    $token = Str::random(60);
    $user = User::where('email', request()->input('email'))->first();
    $user->sendPasswordResetNotification($token);

@Doc's bottom

And if you want to edit your e-mail manually:

    php artisan vendor:publish

select "11" gives you:

/resources/views/vendor/notifications/email.blade.php

Thanks to Mariusz Kurman, I only added token to his answer. this works just fine:

$user = User::where('email', request()->input('email'))->first();
$token = Password::getRepository()->create($user);
$user->sendPasswordResetNotification($token);

Complete control for Laravel 5.5:

    $user = User::where('email', request()->input('email'))->first();
    $token = Password::getRepository()->create($user);

    Mail::send(['text' => 'emails.password'], ['token' => $token], function (Message $message) use ($user) {
        $message->subject(config('app.name') . ' Password Reset Link');
        $message->to($user->email);
    });

Why not just something like this for your controller:

<?php

namespace Illuminate\Foundation\Auth;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Mail\Message;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Password;

class YourController extends Controller
{
    public function sendEmail()
    {
        $credentials = ['email' => $email_address];
        $response = Password::sendResetLink($credentials, function (Message $message) {
            $message->subject($this->getEmailSubject());
        });

        switch ($response) {
            case Password::RESET_LINK_SENT:
                return redirect()->back()->with('status', trans($response));
            case Password::INVALID_USER:
                return redirect()->back()->withErrors(['email' => trans($response)]);
        }
    }
}

You don't really explain the context of how you want to send this, so adjust accordingly.
