# May 17th 2021, 17:38 kevin.pfeifer yes
# May 17th 2021, 17:38 kushan ok, if you login and try to access another controller, your canAccess() should return false
# May 17th 2021, 17:37 kevin.pfeifer i also commented out the ```$this->Authorization->skipAuthorization();``` at the start of my login function
# May 17th 2021, 17:37 kevin.pfeifer ``` public function canAccess( $identity, ServerRequest $request ) { if( $request->getParam( 'controller' ) === 'Users' andand $request->getParam( 'action' ) === 'login' ) { return true; } return false; }```
# May 17th 2021, 17:37 kushan would you be able to share?
# May 17th 2021, 17:37 kushan what's in your canAccess()?
# May 17th 2021, 17:36 kevin.pfeifer where my default page is users controller and login action
# May 17th 2021, 17:36 kevin.pfeifer well it works for me
# May 17th 2021, 17:36 kushan whenever canAccess() returns false, the exception is thrown.
# May 17th 2021, 17:31 kevin.pfeifer let me try that too
# May 17th 2021, 17:30 kushan Yeah, I have that added. Auth and authorisation is working. I've wanted to try Request Authorization Middleware. So, I tried to follow the docs, but no luck :)
# May 17th 2021, 17:28 kevin.pfeifer as for authorization you need to call ```$this->Authorization->skipAuthorization();``` at the start of that function
# May 17th 2021, 17:28 kevin.pfeifer for authentication
# May 17th 2021, 17:28 kevin.pfeifer if you want to allow specific functions in controllers to be accessed as a not logged in user use ``` public function beforeFilter( \Cake\Event\EventInterface $event ) { parent::beforeFilter( $event ); // Configure the login action to not require authentication, preventing // the infinite redirect loop issue $this->Authentication->addUnauthenticatedActions( [ 'login' ] ); }``` inside the controller
# May 17th 2021, 17:25 kushan yeah :)
# May 17th 2021, 17:24 slackebot <kushan>
# May 17th 2021, 17:24 kushan @kevin.pfeifer it's coming from https://book.cakephp.org/authorization/2/en/request-authorization-middleware.html#using-it
# May 17th 2021, 17:23 kushan @neon1024 This is not easy to explain. I've been through this it wasn't easy tbh. Please see the attached pics from my codebase. This is how I'm using.
# May 17th 2021, 17:22 kevin.pfeifer that is the vendor code throwing the exception but what code causes that?
# May 17th 2021, 17:15 kushan has anybody managed to get RequestAuthorizationMiddleware? I tried the following, but when user is not logged in I keep getting Authorization\Exception\ForbiddenException https://book.cakephp.org/authorization/2/en/request-authorization-middleware.html
# May 17th 2021, 16:31 kevin.pfeifer but there are also Table Policies which can be used to filter Queries so only "allowed" data is being shown in queries
# May 17th 2021, 16:30 kevin.pfeifer in this example there is only an Entity Policy where you call `$this->Authorization->authorize($article);` on whatever entity you try to perform an action on
# May 17th 2021, 16:26 kevin.pfeifer so like the one explained here? https://book.cakephp.org/4/en/tutorials-and-examples/cms/authorization.html
# May 17th 2021, 16:23 neon1024 The pattern hasn’t clicked in my brain yet
# May 17th 2021, 16:22 neon1024 Anyone have an example app demonstrating Authorize policies? Maybe a Cake workshop project?
# May 17th 2021, 16:09 kevin.pfeifer sorry but i haven't doven into that area that deep ,:)
# May 17th 2021, 16:07 neon1024 Or should I be loading the controller instance and looking for the actions configured for the AuthenticationComponent?
# May 17th 2021, 16:07 ovidiu.marinoiu but this one returns missing controller
# May 17th 2021, 16:07 ovidiu.marinoiu the name of the plugin is PaperLayout
# May 17th 2021, 16:07 neon1024 Is it right that actions which require no authentication still require authorization?! Seems confusing to me
# May 17th 2021, 16:06 ovidiu.marinoiu I was hoping this will work
# May 17th 2021, 16:06 ovidiu.marinoiu ```echo $this->Html->meta ( 'favicon.ico', 'paper-layout/favicon.ico', array ('type' => 'icon') );```
# May 17th 2021, 16:06 kevin.pfeifer or hardcode it without using the helper function :man-shrugging:
# May 17th 2021, 16:05 kevin.pfeifer if you can create symlinks i would just load the "default" webroot/favicon.ico and symlink that to your plugins favicon.ico
# May 17th 2021, 16:05 kevin.pfeifer puh
# May 17th 2021, 16:01 ovidiu.marinoiu If I have my favicon in the webroot of the plugin, is there a way to link to it in meta()?
# May 17th 2021, 15:57 ovidiu.marinoiu thanks!

# May 17th 2021, 15:54 ovidiu.marinoiu Hi! How do I use assets from the webroot of a plugin?
# May 17th 2021, 15:53 neon1024 I use an auth finder which returns loads of data and after login it’s all deeleted from the session :(
# May 17th 2021, 15:49 neon1024 Strange when it denys a request it deletes the user data from the session
