Question

I am doing an authentication module using Zend_Auth in Zend Framework. After successful authentication I am storing users data using getStorage();

Example :

In method _process I have written like this :

if ($result->isValid()) {                        
    $user = $adapter->getResultRowObject();             
    $auth->getStorage()->write($user);
    return true;
}

print_r($user) showing the result :

stdClass Object ( [id] => 1 [username] => admin [password] => cb3aefbdffbc81588f3d43c394428b16d4346b44 [salt] => ce8d96d579d389e783f95b3772785783ea1a9854 [role] => administrator [date_created] => 2012-12-29 11:04:40) 

Now, I want to display Logout link if user successfully logged in.

LoggedInAs.php

    class Zend_View_Helper_LoggedInAs extends Zend_View_Helper_Abstract {

    public function loggedInAs() {
        $auth = Zend_Auth::getInstance();
        if ($auth->hasIdentity()) {
            $username = $auth->getIdentity()->username;
            $logoutUrl = $this->view->url(array('controller' => 'auth',
                'action' => 'logout'), null, true);
            return 'Welcome ' . $username . '. <a href="' . $logoutUrl . '">Logout</a>';
        }

        $request = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->getRequest();
        $controller = $request->getControllerName();
        $action = $request->getActionName();
        if ($controller == 'auth' && $action == 'index') {
            return '';
        }
        $loginUrl = $this->view->url(array('controller' => 'login', 'action' => 'index'));
        return '<a href="' . $loginUrl . '">Login</a>';
    }

}

But its not calling the method hasIdentity thats why its not going to the if block and

print_r($auth) showing output like this:

Zend_Auth Object ( [_storage:protected] => )

Bootstrap.php

protected function _initSession() {
    Zend_Session::start();
    if (!Zend_Registry::isRegistered('session')) {
        $session = new Zend_Session_Namespace('userIdentity');
        Zend_Registry::set('session', $session);
    }
}

Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

have you added session$myNamespace = new Zend_Session_Namespace(); to the action where you are writing $auth->getStorage()->write($user);,it should be the first line probably

Example #1 Modifying the Session Namespace

Zend_Auth_Storage_Session uses a session namespace of 'Zend_Auth'. This namespace may be overridden by passing a different value to the constructor of Zend_Auth_Storage_Session, and this value is internally passed along to the constructor of Zend_Session_Namespace. This should occur before authentication is attempted, since Zend_Auth::authenticate() performs the automatic storage of the identity.

// Use 'someNamespace' instead of 'Zend_Auth'
$auth->setStorage(new Zend_Auth_Storage_Session('userIdentity'));
$result = $auth->authenticate($authAdapter);
