If I try this is a class with static methods:
public static function chkLog($role)
{
$userrole = $this->getRequest()->getSession()->read('userrole');
return $userrole;
/// more code
Even tried:
public static function chkLog($role)
{
$userrole = Session::read('userrole');
return $userrole;
/// more code
In laravel I can:
public static function userRole($role = null)
{
$userrole = Auth::user()->role;
$checkrole = explode(',', $userrole);
if (in_array($role, $checkrole)) {
return $role;
}
return false;
}
usage
public function scopegetPets($query, $petsearch = '')
{
$petsearch = $petsearch . "%";
$query = Pet::where('petname', 'like', $petsearch);
if (ChkAuth::userRole('admin') === false) {
$userid = Auth::user()->id;
$query->where('ownerid', '=', $userid);
}
$results = $query->orderBy('petname', 'asc')->paginate(5);
return $results;
}
But in cakephp to call statically I had to write this:
public static function __callStatic($method, $params)
{
$instance = ChkAuth::class;
$c = new $instance;
return $c->$method(...array_values($params));
}
In order to call this:
public function userRole($role = null)
{
$userrole = $this->getRequest()->getSession()->read('userrole');
$checkrole = explode(',', $userrole);
if (in_array($role, $checkrole)) {
return $role;
}
return false;
// more
And usage:
public function getPets($offset = "", $rowsperpage = "", $petsearch = "")
{
$pagingQuery = "LIMIT {$offset}, {$rowsperpage}";
$petsearch = $petsearch . "%";
if (Auth::chkRole('admin') === true) {
return DB::select("SELECT * FROM " . PREFIX . "pets " . $pagingQuery);
}
$authid = Auth::authId();
return DB::select("SELECT * FROM " . PREFIX . "pets WHERE ownerid = :authid " . $pagingQuery, ["authid" => $authid]);
}
So basically I am trying to figure out how to use session in cake php inside a static method.
Note the __callStatic works, but as a work a round.
CakePHP's Router
class includes a static function to return the request object. The request object includes a function to return the session. So:
Router::getRequest()->session()
or, as of version 3.5:
Router::getRequest()->getSession()
