I've recently inherited a project from a Laravel developer to look at. Unfortunately, when I migrate and seed the user table, the password ciphering is not working, as follows:

```
public function run()
{
    DB::table('users')->insert([
        'email' => 'admin@site.co.uk',
        'first_name' => 'Site',
        'last_name' => 'Admin',
        'username' => 'admin',
        'password' => 'localhostPassword'
    ]);
}

```

When I run `php artisan migrate --seed` the password field is the string literal as above, and when I try to sign in it tells me that my password credentials are incorrect.

As I'm not an Artisan Laravel developer I'm not sure where to start, but I'm expecting the password field to be hashed like this `$2y$10$u/FcKFPKsgRs8whJZ6ODAO90qllmGjqROnkmuQnxcpynG6WaIbX8e`, which is what is generated when I use the register form in the current code base.
