Okay first of all i am working with Yii 2 basic NOT the advanced version.
Okay i have made it so that my log in functionality works from pulling data from database as apposed to the users being hard coded. I then show in my index view a gridview of all the admins in my database with their id. I have tried to create a create page where an admin can create another admin.
I did manage to get this working however for the life of me i can not find out what i have done to make this functionality stop working.
Models\User.php
<?php
namespace app\models;
use yii\base\NotSupportedException;
use yii\db\ActiveRecord;
use yii\web\IdentityInterface;
use yii\data\ActiveDataProvider;
/**
* User model
*
* @property integer $id
* @property string $username
* @property string $authkey
* @property string $password
* @property string $accessToken
*/
class User extends ActiveRecord implements IdentityInterface
{
/**
* @inheritdoc
*/
public static function tableName()
{
return 'Users';
}
public function rules(){
return [
[['username','password'], 'required']
];
}
public static function findAdmins(){
$query = self::find();
$dataProvider = new ActiveDataProvider([
'query' => $query,
]);
return $dataProvider;
}
/**
* @inheritdoc
*/
public static function findIdentity($id)
{
return static::findOne(['id' => $id]);
}
/**
* @inheritdoc
*/
public static function findIdentityByAccessToken($token, $type = null)
{
throw new NotSupportedException('"findIdentityByAccessToken" is not implemented.');
}
/**
* Finds user by username
*
* @param string $username
* @return static|null
*/
public static function findByUsername($username)
{
return static::findOne(['username' => $username]);
}
/**
* @inheritdoc
*/
public function getId()
{
return $this->id;
}
/**
* @inheritdoc
*/
public function getAuthKey()
{
return static::findOne('AuthKey');
}
/**
* @inheritdoc
*/
public function validateAuthKey($authKey)
{
return static::findOne(['AuthKey' => $authKey]);
}
/**
* Validates password
*
* @param string $password password to validate
* @return boolean if password provided is valid for current user
*/
public function validatePassword($password)
{
return $this->password === $password;
}
}
Views\admin\index.php
<?php
use yii\helpers\Html;
use yii\grid\GridView;
/* @var $this yii\web\View */
$this->title = 'Admins';
$this->params['breadcrumbs'][] = $this->title;
?>
<div class="site-about">
<h1><?= Html::encode($this->title) ?></h1>
<p>
<?= Html::a('Create Admin', ['create'], ['class' => 'btn btn-success']);?>
</p>
<?php
if(isset($user_id)){
print_r($user_id);
}
?>
<?= GridView::widget([
'dataProvider' => $dataProvider,
'columns' => [
'id',
'username',
'password',
['class' => 'yii\grid\ActionColumn'],
],
]); ?>
</div>
So this works and connects to my database fine. It displays the correct columns etc..
Now i will show you the two views which are not working, A create.php which renders _form.php
views\admin\create.php:
<?php
use yii\helpers\Html;
/* @var $this yii\web\View */
$this->title = 'Create Admin';
$this->params['breadcrumbs'][] = ['label' => 'admin', 'url' => ['index']];
$this->params['breadcrumbs'][] = $this->title;
if(isset($username)){
print_r($username);
echo '</br>';
print_r($password);
}
?>
<div class="site-about">
<h1><?= Html::encode($this->title) ?></h1>
<?= $this->render('_form',[
'model' => $model
]);
?>
</div>
views\admin_form.php:
<?php
use yii\helpers\Html;
use yii\widgets\ActiveForm;
/* @var $model app\models\Users */
/* @var $form yii\widgets\ActiveForm */
?>
<div class="admin-form">
<?php $form = ActiveForm::begin(); ?>
<?= $form->field($model, 'username')->textInput(); ?>
<?= $form->field($model, 'password')->textInput(); ?>
<div class="form-group">
<?= Html::submitButton('create', ['class' => 'btn btn-success']) ?>
</div>
<?php ActiveForm::end(); ?>
</div>
Now finally my controller:
controllers\AdminController.php:
<?php
namespace app\controllers;
use Yii;
use yii\web\Controller;
use yii\filters\VerbFilter;
use yii\filters\AccessControl;
use app\models\User;
class AdminController extends Controller
{
public function behaviors()
{
return [
'verbs' => [
'class' => VerbFilter::className(),
'actions' => [
'delete' => ['post'],
],
],
];
}
public function actions()
{
return [
'error' => [
'class' => 'yii\web\ErrorAction',
],
'captcha' => [
'class' => 'yii\captcha\CaptchaAction',
'fixedVerifyCode' => YII_ENV_TEST ? 'testme' : null,
],
];
}
public function actionIndex()
{
$searchModel = new User;
$dataProvider = $searchModel->findAdmins();
return $this->render('index',[
'dataProvider' => $dataProvider
]);
}
public function actionCreate(){
$model = new User;
$request = Yii::$app->request;
$post = $request->post();
$username = "usernameStandard";
$password = "passwordStandard";
if($model->load(Yii::$app->request->post())){
$username = $post['User']['username'];
$password = $post['User']['password'];
}
return $this->render('create',[
'model' => $model,
'username' => $username,
'password' => $password
]);
}
}
Okay then so when i try and do this, i fill in the form from create.php(with rendered _form.php). and when i hit create button. I print_r() the post results to make sure that is fine and it does render the page again with the post results. However it does not create a new user in my database.
Really stuck here can anyone help?
