Can't use Laravel's Authentification

Question

I'm trying to configure the laravel's auth to fit with my db. But whatever I do, override properties like protected $table='my_table'; or public function username() { return 'email_user'} in LoginController, it ignore everything. Does anyone know how to parameter the auth of laravel with different database ?

Here is what I changed in LoginController:

public function username()
{
    return 'email_user';
}

And in the User model :

protected $table = "pays";
protected $primaryKey = "id_user";

public function getAuthPassword() { 
    return $this->password_user; 
}

/**
 * The attributes that are mass assignable.
 *
 * @var array
 */
protected $fillable = [
    'name_user', 'surname_user', 'email_user', 'password_user', 'sex_user', 'birth_user', 'address_user', 
    'city_user', 'pc_user', 'phone_user', 'pic_user', 'status_user', 'license_user', 'urssaf_user', 
    'remember_token', 'created_at', 'updated_at',
];

EDIT : config/auth.php :

<?php

return [

'defaults' => [
    'guard' => 'web',
    'passwords' => 'users',
],

'guards' => [
    'web' => [
        'driver' => 'session',
        'provider' => 'users',
    ],

    'api' => [
        'driver' => 'token',
        'provider' => 'users',
    ],
],


'providers' => [
    'users' => [
        'driver' => 'eloquent',
        'model' => App\User::class,
    ],

    // 'users' => [
    //     'driver' => 'database',
    //     'table' => 'users',
    // ],
],




'passwords' => [
    'users' => [
        'provider' => 'users',
        'table' => 'password_resets',
        'expire' => 60,
    ],
],

]; LoginController :

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth;

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller; use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\AuthenticatesUsers;

class LoginController extends Controller { /* |-------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Login Controller |-------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | This controller handles authenticating users for the application and | redirecting them to your home screen. The controller uses a trait | to conveniently provide its functionality to your applications. | */

use AuthenticatesUsers;

/**
 * Where to redirect users after login.
 *
 * @var string
 */
protected $redirectTo = '/home';

/**
 * Create a new controller instance.
 *
 * @return void
 */
public function __construct()
{
    $this->middleware('guest')->except('logout');
}

public function username()
{
    return 'email_user';
}
}

In your login form keep password field with name=password:

<input type="text" name="email_user">

<input type="password" name="password">
