Determining user access level.

Verikon

Hi guys,

Really enjoying looking at the great work in this forum.

I'm writing a simple "links of interest" panel where if the current user is an admin the view will enable a simple CRUD interface for links.

I need to be able to determine the userID in order to query whether or not a user is an admin. The structure below would suggest that I cannot access the userID.

Whats the methodology for this? I know this is probably a noobie question.

            [Database] => Gdn_Database Object
                (
                    [ClassName] => Gdn_Database
                    [_CurrentResultSet:Gdn_Database:private] => Gdn_DataSet Object
                        (
                            [Connection] => PDO Object
                                (
                                )

                            [_Cursor:Gdn_DataSet:private] => -1
                            [_DatasetType:protected] => object
                            [_EOF:protected] => 
                            [_PDOStatement:Gdn_DataSet:private] => 
                            [_Result:protected] => Array
                                (
                                    [0] => stdClass Object
                                        (
                                            [UserID] => 1

Of course.

Being an instance of gdn, that gives me access to the Session/User attribute. I should of PHPdoc'd this before asking stupid questions.

Sorry guys

class myPluginClass extends Gdn_Module{

  public function getAdminExample(){

    $session = gdn::Session();
    $userID = $session->User->UserID;
    $isAdmin = $session->User->Admin;     //will be true if the current user is an admin

  } 

}
