Is there a better way to custom Shield login form?

Hello everyone,

I am implementing Shield, and I would like to customize the login form.

Following the documentation I started to add and update the router in Routes.php file:

PHP Code:

$routes->get('login', '\App\Controllers\Auth\LoginController::loginView');
$routes->post('login', '\App\Controllers\Auth\LoginController::loginAction'); 


PHP Code:

service('auth')->routes($routes, ['except' => ['login']]); 


Then I added the custom controller in App/Controllers/Auth/LoginController.php with the following namespace:

PHP Code:

namespace App\Controllers\Auth; 


Here is the body of my custom LoginController controller:

PHP Code:

<?php

namespace App\Controllers\Auth;

use CodeIgniter\Shield\Controllers\LoginController as ShieldLogin;
use CodeIgniter\Shield\Authentication\Authenticators\Session;
use CodeIgniter\HTTP\RedirectResponse;

class LoginController extends ShieldLogin
{
    public function loginView()
    {
        // Same code of the parent method
    }

    public function loginAction(): RedirectResponse
    {
        // Same code of the parent method
    }
} 


Everything works fine. I have the default form as expected for my tests.

So my question is the following:
Is there another way to only custom the form appearance without override the loginAction post method?

Thank you!
