Yesterday we have try to build a simple application based on symfony, now we’ll try to make those apps more usable what we have left now is user management
the sequence if users want to make a movie reviews is
- user login to the apps
- user pick which movie he / she want to review
- he / she put some review on it
- he can see the reviews.
in the previous sample, we’ve only build the CRUD application, which base of almost every application. To make it simple, we will use a plugin for symfony called sfGuardPlugin. It’s a plugin to ease the pain of user management and save a lot of our time.
first of all you’ve to download the plugin sfGuardPlugin
and follow the instruction found in http://trac.symfony-project.com/attachment/wiki/sfGuardPlugin/
if you succeeded installed the plugin, you should see the login screen when you trying to access your module.
but the page is a plain one, let’s try to change it a little bit first of all you have to create a folder called sfGuardAuth in your module folder, the module folder it self is on the apps/samples
inside of the sfGuardAuth, create a new folder named templates. Now fire up your favorite editor and create a new PHP file, we have to name it signinSuccess.php and secureSuccess.php
let’s create it like this
<?php
echo form_error('username');
echo "
";
echo label_for('username', __('username:'));
echo "";
echo input_tag('username', $sf_data->get('sf_params')->get('username'));
echo "
";
?>
<?php
echo form_error('password');
echo "
";
echo label_for('password', __('password:'));
echo "";
echo input_password_tag('password');
echo "
";
?>
<?php
echo submit_tag(__('Sign in'));
echo "";
echo link_to(__('Forgot your password?'), '@sf_guard_password', array('id' => 'sf_guard_auth_forgot_password'))
?>
that’s for the login page, now what we want is user pick the movie and then give their review of the movie.
