How do I customize the context.php in vendor folder?

Post by bar_on » 30 Oct 2024, 08:24

In vendor/aimeos/aimeos-core/src/MShop/Context.php, there is a function about retrieving user,

Code: Select all

public function user() : ?string
	{
		if( $this->user instanceof \Closure )
		{
			$fcn = $this->user;
			$this->user = $fcn();
		}


		return $this->user;
	}
I want it to return auth()->id() instead, is there anyway I can override the file just like the usual manager for models, or is there other ways of configuring the authentication?

Version:
"aimeos/aimeos-laravel": "~2023.10",
"php": "^8.1.0",

No, that won't work and will result in errors whenever $context->user() is called because you would return an unexpected value. Instead, use

Code: Select all

$context->user()->getId()

Thanks for the reply.

I couldn't get the customer get self jsonapi to work (ie. returning everything null when logged in), except changing the user function (in context.php of vendor folder) to return the laravel auth user id instead. I'm using laravel passport for user auth. Hence I'd like to know:

1. If there is any setup I can do to override the context.php file (just like overriding the model manager through custom extension), and
2. If there is anything wrong with laravel passport compatibility with the library.

From another post I read that the user function works if Auth::id() returns the correct user id.
However, Laravel by default uses guard 'web' instead of 'api'. If I change the default guard to api, the aimeos backend wouldn't login. How do I configure aimeos to use guard 'api' instead? (ie. auth('api')->id() instead of Auth::id())

No, and the approach is wrong. Try to find out why the customer item isn't loaded here:

We haven't used Passport for authentication up to now but there should be no principle problem.
