Logic Exception

Having finally figured out how to use FOSUserBundle in my project, I decided to keep track of all logins next. The implementation turned out to be a breeze thanks to Symfony2's security listener mechanism. As usual, the first step is to create a MongoDB document for this purpose. This is a very simple document that contains a user's id, session id, IP address, and login date. src/Acme/UserBundle/Document/LoginHistory.php namespace Acme\UserBundle\Document; class LoginHistory { protected $id; protected $userId; protected $sessionId; protected $ip; protected $createdAt; /** * Get id * * @return custom_id $id */ public function getId() { return $this->id; } /** * Set userId * * @param int $userId */ public function setUserId($userId) { $this->userId = $userId; } /** * Get userId * * @return int $userId */ public function getUserId...

Overview A couple of days ago, I realized I needed to add some new functionality to the login process. Specifically, I needed to track all previous login attempts. Not knowing anything about the new Symfony2 SecurityBundle, I had to go through the underlying code to understand what was going on. In the process, I think got a basic idea about how the new SecurityBundle interacts with FOSUserBundle. Configuration I have a basic security configuration as illustrated below. app/config/security.yml security: encoders: Symfony\Component\Security\Core\User\User: plaintext role_hierarchy: ROLE_ADMIN: ROLE_USER ROLE_SUPER_ADMIN: ROLE_ADMIN providers: fos_userbundle: id: fos_user.user_manager firewalls: main: pattern: .* form_login: provider: fos_userbundle check_path: /user/login_check login_path: /user/login lo...

It's been a while I have not added an entry to my blog. I have been busy playing with Symfony 2, MongoDB, and FOSUserBundle for a while now so here is a tutorial to integrate Symfony 2, MongoDB, and FOSUserBundle. Objectives * Install DoctrineMongoDBBundle * Install FOSUserBundle * Create user model ** Utilize groups ** Add additional properties to user model * Create customized registration form and handler At this point I am going to assume that you have a running Symfony 2 and MongoDB installation in place already and a basic understanding of how to configure Symfony 2 services. I will also exclude view related steps from this tutorial. Setting Up DoctrineMongoDBBundle Add the following to your deps file: [doctrine-mongodb] git=http://github.com/doctrine/mongodb.git [doctrine-mongodb-odm] git=http://github.com/doctrine/mongodb-odm.git [DoctrineMongoDBBundle] git=http://github.com/symfony/DoctrineMongoDBBundle.git target=/bundles/Symfony/Bundle/Doctrin...
