Converting plain password to Laravel encrypted password

I have a table called "users" where I have username and password from my users.

The passwords are in plain text. Now I've created a new site with Laravel 5.4 and Auth.

So if a user wants to loggin into my site I need to convert my password plain text to the new password encrypted.

How can I get the "salt" from my Auth and also a tools to get the encrypted password from my plain password and "salt". The reason is because I created a new column in my users table so I want to put there the password encrypted using a query.

Thanks for helping!
