OVERVIEW

This extension provides user model based on user information gathered in configuration file instead of traditional database table. It may be useful in the case of one or few users in web application.

INSTALLATION

Either run

php composer.phar require vkabachenko/phpuser "dev-master"

or add

"vkabachenko/phpuser": "dev-master"

to the require section of your composer.json

SETUP

Prepare your console controller, say UserController as follows:

class UserController extends \yii\console\Controller
{

    public function actions()
    {
        return [
            'add' => [
                'class' => 'vkabachenko\phpuser\AddUserAction',
                'pathAlias' => '@common'
            ],
        ];
    }
}

Property pathAlias depends on where user configuration file would be. In that case in @common/config/users.php.

Run the controller's action in console

Run

php yii user/add

and enter username and password for the user. Appropriate data would be stored in configuration file users.php.

Merge user's data as application parameter

Merge users.php file with other parameters files. For example in @common/config/main.php

$params = array_merge(
    require(__DIR__ . '/params.php'),
    require(__DIR__ . '/params-local.php'),
...........................................,
    require(__DIR__ . '/users.php')
);

Use class vkabachenko\phpuser\User.php in application

Now you can use model vkabachenko\phpuser\User.php for identifying user throughout the application: in identityClass at the components/user config section, in login action and so on.
