jezek: AuthComponent is very simple :D |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:10 |
jaredhoyt |
and add Auth->authorize = 'controller' to your beforeFilter() |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:10 |
jezek |
i don't really knoe how to use it, but i guess i'll learn |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:10 |
jezek |
ok |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:09 |
jezek |
well not user yet |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:09 |
jaredhoyt |
jezek: if it's just admin and users, the above is the best solution ^^ |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:09 |
jezek |
admin and user |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:09 |
TommyO |
like: AppController::isAuthorized() { if ($this->params['admin'] andand !$this->Auth->user('admin')) { return false; }} |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:09 |
jaredhoyt |
multiple levels, or just admin and user |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:09 |
jezek |
no different levels |

how do i go about performing ajax operations (loading content via ajax) when the page loads? I am implementing content (such as a photo album) that is ajax updateable, i thought i could just load it via ajax when the page originally loads |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:08 |
jaredhoyt |
jezek: is it simple access control... or are there different levels of users |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:08 |
jaredhoyt |
jezek: why not let AuthComponent take care of some of this |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:08 |
jezek |
admin routing |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:08 |
jezek |
and i need a login form, etc.. |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:08 |
jaredhoyt |
are you using admin routing or just protecting certain controllers or actions |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:08 |
jezek |
... |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:07 |
TommyO |
jezek: yes. like: if ($this->params['admin']) |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:07 |
jezek |
well i have quite a few functions |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:07 |
jaredhoyt |
jezek: is that all you're doing, there's probalby a simpler way than this =P |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:07 |
jezek |
i want to be able to protect my admin area |
| # |

in a component, but the method in the component that uses the model is called from AppController's beforeFilter |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:06 |
TommyO |
this is in a component or beforeFilter? |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:06 |
jaredhoyt |
it's warned against in the manual, but shows you how |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:06 |
jaredhoyt |
dunno, he's wanting to use a model in a component |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:06 |
TommyO |
sounds like a design flaw |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:06 |
jaredhoyt |
components don't normal hold models, so i didn't see the harm :) |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:05 |
TommyO |
why? what's the purpose? |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:05 |
TommyO |
that is dangerous |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:05 |
TommyO |
and use it right away |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:05 |
jaredhoyt |
TommyO: he's wanting to be able to use it class-wide though w/o having to instantiate it everytime |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:05 |
TommyO |
$User = instead of $this->User = |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:05 |
TommyO |
don't assign it to a class value like that as it will interfere with the controller's expectation of that member |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:04 |
jaredhoyt |
i haven't tried calling the method from a normal controller's beforeFilter... just a controller's method |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:04 |
jaredhoyt |
well actually i take that back |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:04 |
jezek |
mm |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:04 |
jaredhoyt |
if you do it in a normal controller's beforeFilter(), it is |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:04 |
jaredhoyt |
TommyO: right, his problem is... if you do $this->User = ClassRegistry::init('User'); in Component::startup() and call the method that uses $this->User in AppController::beforeFilter ... the User model isn't loaded |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:03 |
TommyO |
jezek: ^^ this applies to you too :) |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:03 |
TommyO |
or to turn it off, like $this->Component->enabled = false; |
| # |
Aug 9th 2008, 18:02 |
TommyO |
*you do |
