• Integrated with mysqltcs
• Use an already established database connection (mysqltcs connection)
• ApiKey support
• Enabled user support
• Salt support (more security)
• Expendable

Use

The examples are not implemented yet, although you can see how to use the library looking the tests, _(*17)

Firt use

You have to import the sql structure tests/usersManagement.sql, _(*18)

Simple example

<?php
require_once(__DIR__."/vendor/autoload.php"); //composer autoload
$db = require(__DIR__."/config.php"); //mysql connection data as array
use it\thecsea\mysqltcs\Mysqltcs;
use it\thecsea\users_management\UsersManagement;
use it\thecsea\users_management\User;
$connection = new Mysqltcs($db['host'],  $db['user'], $db['psw'], $db['db']); //myslqtcs connection
$usersManagement = new UsersManagement($connection, $db['tables']['users'], "salt"); //environment
$user = User::newUser($usersManagement, "t", "tt@hhh.it", "gggg"); //new user, already inserted in db
$user2 = User::getUserByLogin($usersManagement, "tt@hhh.it", "gggg"); //LOGIN get user checking password
$users = $usersManagement->getUsers(); //get list of users
print_r($users[0]->getUserInfo()); //print user info (associative matrix) 
?>

N.B. config.php is a file that contains the mysql connection data as array., _(*19)

N.B. you have to include composer autoload to use the library, _(*20)

How it works

This library is fully object oriented so you have tostring, equals (user), clone and so on, _(*21)

Exception

• UsersManagementException thrown on logic error (for example wrong password)
• Mysqltcsexception thrown on mysql error (for example db permission problem)

Methods and documentation

The user contains other useful method, you can see how to use method looking the phpdoc, _(*23)

Salt

This library has support to salt, for more security, you can specify it via construct or via setter, or you can ignore it and use the default salt "thecsea", _(*24)

Extra features

This library include extra features like apiKey string and enabled flag for each user, you can use these information as you want, this class provide only the insert and update methods for these information, _(*25)

N.B. this class create an unique apiKey for each user (default behavior), _(*26)

Db access
