How bind CWebUser with model User

How to bind Yii:app()->user to the model User. That there was a connection type: Yii::app()->user->getUser()

For example, I want to get the currently logged in user's email:

Yii::app()->user->getUser()->email;

I readed wiki post:http://www.yiiframework.com/wiki/80/add-information-to-yii-app-user-by-extending-cwebuser-better-version/

Solution

  • MyWbuser.php in components:

    class MyWebUser extends CWebUser{

    private $_profile = null;
    public $loginUrl='/';

    public function init(){
       parent::init();
       if(!$this->getIsGuest()){
            $this->_profile = User::model()->findByPk($this->getId());
       }
    }
    public function getProfile(){
       return $this->_profile;
   }
}

    In config.php:

        'user' => array(
        'class' => 'MyWebUser',
    )

    Then you can use:

    Yii::app()->user->profile->name
