Filters and $_POST (or $request post vars) - Kaosweaver - 07-27-2021
I want to automatically add variables to each incoming POST, so I thought filters would be helpful, however, I can't see a way to get to the POST vars in the filter class
PHP Code:
class Filters extends BaseConfig
{
public $aliases = [
'csrf' => CSRF::class,
'toolbar' => DebugToolbar::class,
'honeypot' => Honeypot::class,
'postfilter' => PostFilter::class
];
public $globals = [
'before' => [
// 'honeypot',
// 'csrf',
],
'after' => [
'toolbar',
// 'honeypot',
],
];
public $methods = [
'post' => ['postfilter']
];
public $filters = [];
}
the PostFilters class:
PHP Code:
class PostFilter implements FilterInterface
{
public function before(RequestInterface $request, $arguments = null)
{
$_POST['Maint_Userid'] = "plugh";
$_POST['Create_Userid'] = "plugh";
return $request;
}
public function after(RequestInterface $request, ResponseInterface $response, $arguments = null)
{
// Do something here
}
}
I've also tried:
PHP Code:
public function before(RequestInterface $request, $arguments = null)
{
$post_request = \Config\Services::request();
$post_request->Maint_Userid = "plugh";
$post_request->Create_Userid = "plugh";
return $request;
}
PHP Code:
public function before(RequestInterface $request, $arguments = null)
{
$request['Maint_Userid'] = "plugh";
$request['Create_Userid'] = "plugh";
return $request;
}
It is adding the varaibles to the RequestInterface $request (from log_messages, I see this). Even the direct $_POST didn't add it to the post vars in the controller.
Where should I be doing this (or how do I make the filters see the $_POST vars and add to them)?
Thanks.

Try using $_REQUEST['Maint_Userid']... or whatever the form/post variable's name it is you want to access from inside the Filter.
Code:
public function before(RequestInterface $request, $arguments = null)
{
$maint_Userid = $_REQUEST['Maint_Userid'];
$create_Userid = $_REQUEST['Create_Userid'];

That would get me the values in the POST. I'm looking to *add* values to the POST for processing (as in, for each POST, I want to add the user's ID for both the create and maint fields)

you need api ctl other ctl extend from it after log in call $userId

you dont need add data to post request

RE: Filters and $_POST (or $request post vars) - Kaosweaver - 08-10-2021
Actually, I've sorted out the issue that I needed to sort out. I really didn't need the vars as part of the POST, I needed them to be automatically filled in when I submitted my records for insert or update to the database, so, the database beforeInsert and beforeUpdate fixed the issue (in the model):
PHP Code:
namespace App\Models;
use CodeIgniter\Model;
class EmployeeCOIModel extends OurModel
{
protected $DBGroup = 'db_group1';
protected $table = 'Employee_COI';
protected $allowedFields = [
// our fields go here
'Maint_Userid',
'Maint_Date',
'Create_Userid',
'Create_Date'
];
protected $beforeInsert = ['setInsertFields'];
protected $beforeUpdate = ['setUpdateFields'];
protected $returnType = 'App\Entities\EmployeeCOI';
protected function setInsertFields(array $data)
{
if (!isset($data['data']['Create_Userid'])) {
helper("user");
$request = \Config\Services::request();
$current_user = get_user($request->getServer('AUTH_USER'));
$data['data']['Create_Userid'] = get_username($current_user);
$data['data']['Maint_Userid'] = get_username($current_user);
}
return $data;
}
protected function setUpdateFields(array $data)
{
if (!isset($data['data']['Maint_Userid'])) {
helper("user");
$request = \Config\Services::request();
$current_user = get_user($request->getServer('AUTH_USER'));
$data['data']['Maint_Userid'] = get_username($current_user);
}
return $data;
}
}
