Zendamf Authentication

Hi,

I posted this on stack overflow and have not had much of a response so I thought I would try it here:


I am trying to get zendamf working with my codeigniter installation. I want to ensure that the user has logged on before allowing them to make any requests to any of the services. I have the following piece of code in my construct for the Testservice.php file.

Code:

function __construct()
    {
        parent::__construct();



            if(isset($this->session->userdata['user_id']))
            {
                log_message('error','not logged in');
                return 'Not Logged in';
                exit;
            }
            else
            {
                log_message('error','logged in');
            }
        }

And this for my test function

Code:

public function getMessage()
{
        return 'getmessage';
    }

When i make a call to the service I get the string 'getmessage' returned irrespective of being logged in or not. I can see the log messages been written for the login check but it I want it to send me the text specifed in the return for each of the conditions.

Any ideas

Thanks in advance

JaChNo,
I believe you are getting that because your if statement returns false.

Trying changing it to

Code:

IF ($this->session->userdata['user_id']!==FALSE) {
}

well spotted it seems you have found my deliberate mistake. here is the correct code. i still get the issue.

Code:

if(isset($this->session->userdata['user_id']))
            {

                log_message('error','logged in');
                return'logged in';
                exit;
            }
            else
            {
                log_message('error','not logged in');
                return 'Not Logged in';
                exit;
            }

it seems that once it hits the exit it carries on to the function? but i thought that exit should then make it stop running anything else.

JaChNo,
The reason this is not exiting the script is because you have return statements. The return will exit the function, not the script. Try this.

Code:

IF ($this->session->userdata['user_id']===FALSE) {
    log_message('error','logged in');
    // return 'logged in'; #Removed because this will exit the function
    exit;
}
ELSE {
    log_message('error','not logged in');
    // return 'Not Logged in'; #Removed because this will exit the function
    exit;

}
