如何在Drupal 8中获取当前用户对象?

I am proficient in Drupal 7 where I get the current user object from global $user, but how do I get it in Drupal 8 ?

Please use following code to get the current user object in Drupal 8: $user = \Drupal::currentUser();

$user = \Drupal::currentUser();

To get the current userID you can use :

$user = User::load(\Drupal::currentUser()->id());

One liner way to get a full drupal user object for the current active user :

$account = \Drupal\user\Entity\User::load(\Drupal::currentUser()->id());

Why not just Drupal::currentUser() ? Because most of the time it won't be sufficient as you'll need a fully loaded user object while it's not :
