Usage

Once the extension is installed, simply modify your backend configuration as follows:

return [
    'components' => [
        ...
        // Replace default user component:
        'user' => [
            'identityClass' => 'infoweb\user\models\User',
            'enableAutoLogin' => true,
        ],
        // Add to views
        'view' => [
            'theme' => [
                'pathMap' => [
					...
                    '@dektrium/user/views' => '@infoweb/user/views'
                ]
            ]
        ],
    ],
    ...
    'modules' => [
        'user' => [
            'class' => 'dektrium\user\Module',
            'enableUnconfirmedLogin' => true,
            'confirmWithin' => 21600,
            'cost' => 12,
            'admins' => ['infoweb', 'admin'],
            'modelMap' => [
                'User' => 'infoweb\user\models\User',
                'UserSearch' => 'infoweb\user\models\UserSearch',
                'Profile' => 'infoweb\user\models\Profile',
            ],
            'controllerMap' => [
                'admin' => 'infoweb\user\controllers\AdminController',
                'settings' => 'infoweb\user\controllers\SettingsController',
                'security' => 'infoweb\user\controllers\SecurityController',
            ],
            'modules' => [
                // Register the custom module as a submodule
                'infoweb-user' => [
                    'class' => 'infoweb\user\Module'
                ]
            ]
        ],
    ],
    ...
    'as access' => [
        'class' => 'infoweb\user\components\AccessControl',
        'user' => 'infoweb\user\models\WebUser',
        'allowActions' => [
            'user/recovery/*',
            'user/security/logout',
            'user/registration/*'
        ],
    ],
];

To use the module, execute yii migration

yii migrate/up --migrationPath=@vendor/infoweb-internet-solutions/yii2-cms-user/migrations
yii migrate/up --migrationPath=@vendor/dektrium/yii2-user/migrations

Separate frontend and backend user

If you want to use separate sessions for users of the frontend and backend application, a couple of configurations have to be updated.

1. Bootstrap the session component in backend/config/main.php

   'bootstrap' => ['session'...],

2. Set the identityCookie of the user component and update the request and session components in backend/config/main.php

   'components' => [
       ...
       'user' => [
           ...          
           'identityCookie' => [
               'name' => '_backendIdentity',
               'path' => '/admin',
               'httpOnly' => true,
           ],
       ],
       ...
       'request' => [
            'class' => 'common\components\Request',
            'web'=> '/backend/web',
            'adminUrl' => '/admin',
            'csrfParam' => '_backendCSRF',
        ],
        'session' => [
            'name' => 'PHPSESSID',
            'cookieParams' => [
                'httpOnly' => true,
                'path' => '/admin',
            ],
        ],
        ...
   ]

3. Bootstrap the session component in frontend/config/main.php

   'bootstrap' => ['session'...],

4. Update the user, request and session components in frontend/config/main.php

   ...
   'user' => [
       'identityClass' => 'infoweb\user\models\frontend\User',
       'enableAutoLogin' => true,
       'identityCookie' => [
           'name' => '_frontendIdentity',
           'path' => '/',
           'httpOnly' => true,
       ],
   ],
   'request'=>[
       'class' => 'common\components\Request',
       'web' => '/frontend/web',
       'csrfParam' => '_frontendCSRF',
   ],
   'session' => [
       'name' => 'PHPFRONTSESSID',
       'cookieParams' => [
           'httpOnly' => true,
           'path' => '/',
       ],
   ],
   ...

5. At this point you can implement the models/frontend/LoginForm.php and models/frontend/SignupForm.php models and create views and controller actions for them.

6. Some sort of access control has to be implemented in your frontend controllers to determine which actions are allowed for a frontend user. This can be done through a rbac role of by implementing an access filter as a behavior.

public function behaviors()
{
    return [
        'access' => [
            'class' => AccessControl::className(),
            'rules' => [                    
                // Login and signup pages are accessible for guests
                [
                    'actions' => ['login','signup', 'request-password-reset'],
                    'allow' => true,
                    'roles' => ['?','@'],
                ],
                // Logout page is accessible for authenticated users
                [
                    'actions' => ['logout'],
                    'allow' => true,
                    'roles' => ['@'],
                ],
                // These actions are accessible for authenticated users
                [
                    'actions' => [...],
                    'allow' => true,
                    'roles' => ['@'],
                ],
				...
            ],
            // If access is denied, redirect to the login page
            'denyCallback' => function ($rule, $action) {
                $this->redirect(['/'])->send();
            }
        ],
        'verbs' => [
            'class' => VerbFilter::className(),
            'actions' => [
                'logout' => ['post'],
            ],
        ],
    ];
