Login with Kohana auth module - what am I doing wrong?
- by keithjgrant
I'm trying to login with the following controller action, but my login attempt keeps failing (I get the 'invalid username and/or password' message). What am I doing wrong? I also tried the other method given in the examples in the auth documentation, Auth::instance()->login($user->username, $form->password);, but I get the same result. Kohana version is 2.3.4.
public function login() {
$auth = Auth::instance();
if ($auth->logged_in()) {
url::redirect('/account/summary');
}
$view = new View('login');
$view->username = '';
$view->password = '';
$post = $this->input->post();
$form = new Validation($post);
$form->pre_filter('trim', 'username')
->pre_filter('trim', 'password')
->add_rules('username', 'required');
$failed = false;
if (!empty($post) && $form->validate()) {
$login = array(
'username' => $form->username,
'password' => $form->password,
);
if (ORM::factory('user')->login($login)) {
url::redirect('/accounts/summary');
} else {
$view->username = $form->username;
$view->message = in_array('required', $form->errors()) ?
'Username and password are required.' :
'Invalid username and/or password.';
}
}
$view->render(true);
}
