An authentication and authorization plugin for pails loosely based on UserPie (userpie.com). At this point it's a near-complete rewrite., _(*1)

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., _(*2)

Installation

In the root of a pails app, run, _(*3)

composer require pails/auth

Configuration

Inside any controller where you want to make use of the authentication/authorization methods, use the PailsAuthentication trait., _(*4)

class DefaultController extends Pails\Controller
{
    use PailsAuthentication;
}

You can then use the before actions require_login or require_anonymous:, _(*5)

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

Two utility methods, is_logged_in and current_user, are also provided., _(*6)

pails-auth is a core plugin maintained and supported by Brian Parks., _(*7)
