hi all,
I am developing an application using YII. I have an issue in my app now.
I have an external url and I need to login ( I have username & password) and fetch details into my yii app. How can I do.Any options available in yii ?
Please help
Thanks
Anil
Hi Anil,
External URL means you are pointing at a API based login or some other ?
Thanks
It’s an API.I need to login and the url will check these credentials and will give results in xml & Json
Hi Anil,
Make use of the following interface
\yii\web\IdentityInterface
And rewrite the functions findIdentity($id), findByUsername($username), findIdentityByAccessToken($token,$type) based on your API call and make sure to decode the JSON into array formate.
May be
<?php
namespace app\models;
class User extends \yii\base\Object implements \yii\web\IdentityInterface {
public $id;
public $username;
public $password;
public $authKey;
public $accessToken;
private static $users = [
'100' => [
'id' => '100',
'username' => 'admin',
'password' => 'admin',
'authKey' => 'test100key',
'accessToken' => '100-token',
],
'101' => [
'id' => '101',
'username' => 'demo',
'password' => 'demo',
'authKey' => 'test101key',
'accessToken' => '101-token',
],
];
/**
* @inheritdoc
*/
public static function findIdentity($id) {
return isset(self::$users[$id]) ? new static(self::$users[$id]) : null; // Your API call based on id search
}
/**
* @inheritdoc
*/
public static function findIdentityByAccessToken($token, $type = null) {
foreach (self::$users as $user) {
if ($user['accessToken'] === $token) {
return new static($user);
}
}
return null;
}
/**
* Finds user by username
*
* @param string $username
* @return static|null
*/
public static function findByUsername($username) {
foreach (self::$users as $user) {
if (strcasecmp($user['username'], $username) === 0) {
return new static($user); //Your API search by username
}
}
return null;
}
/**
* @inheritdoc
*/
public function getId() {
return $this->id;
}
/**
* @inheritdoc
*/
public function getAuthKey() {
return $this->authKey;
}
/**
* @inheritdoc
*/
public function validateAuthKey($authKey) {
return $this->authKey === $authKey;
}
/**
* Validates password
*
* @param string $password password to validate
* @return bool if password provided is valid for current user
*/
public function validatePassword($password) {
return $this->password === $password;
}
}
