NAME
CatalystX::SimpleLogin::Controller::Login - Configurable login controller
SYNOPSIS
# For simple useage exmple, see CatalystX::SimpleLogin, this is a
# full config example
__PACKAGE__->config(
'Controller::Login' => {
traits => [
'WithRedirect', # Optional, enables redirect-back feature
'-RenderAsTTTemplate', # Optional, allows you to use your own template
],
actions => {
login => { # Also optional
PathPart => ['theloginpage'], # Change login action to /theloginpage
},
},
},
);See CatalystX::SimpleLogin::Form::Login for configuring the form.
DESCRIPTION
Controller base class which exists to have login roles composed onto it for the login and logout actions.
ATTRIBUTES
login_form_class
A class attribute containing the class of the form to be initialised. One can override it in a derived class with the class of a new form, possibly subclassing CatalystX::SimpleLogin::Form::Login. For example:
package MyApp::Controller::Login;
use Moose;
extends('CatalystX::SimpleLogin::Controller::Login');
has '+login_form_class' => (
default => "MyApp::Form::Login",
);
1;login_form_class_roles
An attribute containing an array reference of roles to be consumed by the form. One can override it in a similar way to login_form_class:
package MyApp::Controller::Login;
use Moose;
extends('CatalystX::SimpleLogin::Controller::Login');
has '+login_form_class_roles' => (
default => sub { [qw(MyApp::FormRole::Foo MyApp::FormRole::Bar)] },
);
1;METHODS
BUILD
Cause form instance to be built at application startup.
do_post_login_redirect
This method does a post-login redirect. TODO for BOBTFISH - should it even be public? If it does need to be public, then document it because the Pod coverage test failed.
login
Login action.
login_redirect
Redirect to the login action.
login_GET
Displays the login form
login_POST
Processes a submitted login form, and if correct, logs the user in and redirects
not_required
A stub action that is anchored at the root of the site ("/") and does not require registration (hence the name).
redirect_after_login_uri
If you are using WithRedirect (i.e. by default), then this method is overridden to redirect the user back to the page they initially hit which required authentication.
Note that even if the original URI was a post, then the redirect back will only be a GET.
If you choose NOT to compose the WithRedirect trait, then you can set the uri users are redirected to with the redirect_after_login_uri config key, or by overriding the redirect_after_login_uri method in your own login controller if you need custom logic.
render_login_form
Renders the login form. By default it just calls the form's render method. If you want to do something different, like rendering the form with a template through your view, this is the place to hook into.
required
A stub action that is anchored at the root of the site ("/") and does require registration (hence the name).
remember_me
An action that is called to deal with whether the remember me flag has been set or not. If it has been it extends the session expiry time.
This is only called if there was a successful login so if you want a hook into that part of the process this is a good place to hook into.
It is also obviously a good place to hook into if you want to change the behaviour of the remember me flag.
