Laravel 5.3 determine redirection based on factors

I realize that I can change where my user is directed after login by changing 

    protected $redirectTo = '/home';

in the LoginController.php

However, I want to check if there are any items in a shopping cart and if so, direct the user to the checkout page. I may also check to see if they have purchased a service that is active and direct them to the dashboard, then anyone else to the homepage.

Anyone know how to apply some logic to the redirection?

You can override sendLoginResponse() method in app\Http\Controllers\Auth\LoginController.php to perform the check and redirect to whatever route you want.

Original sendLoginResponse() method is in vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\AuthenticatesUsers.php. Copy-paste it to LoginController.php and then work with it. Do not change anything in an original trait.
