pails-auth

An authentication and authorization plugin for pails loosely based on UserPie (userpie.com). At this point it's a near-complete rewrite.

Dependencies

• pails
• pails/activerecord
• pails/actionmailer

We recommend using composer to get the dependencies. Furthermore, we recommend not installing the dependencies for pails-auth directly, but listing pails-auth as a dependency in your pails application's composer.json file.

Installation

In the root of a pails app, run

composer require pails/auth

Configuration

Inside any controller where you want to make use of the authentication/authorization methods, use the PailsAuthentication trait.

class DefaultController extends Pails\Controller
{
	use PailsAuthentication;
}

You can then use the before actions require_login or require_anonymous:

$before_actions = array(
	'require_login' => array('except' => array('index', 'about', 'contact'))
);

Two utility methods, is_logged_in and current_user, are also provided.

Support

pails-auth is a core plugin maintained and supported by Brian Parks.
