BackendUser¶

\nn\t3::BackendUser()¶

Methods to check in the frontend if a user is logged in to the Typo3 backend and has e.g. admin rights. Methods to start a backend user if it does not exist (e.g. during a scheduler job).

Overview of Methods¶

\nn\t3::BackendUser()->get();¶

Gets the current backend user. Corresponds to $GLOBALS['BE_USER'] in earlier Typo3 versions.

\nn\t3::BackendUser()->get();

@return \TYPO3\CMS\Backend\FrontendBackendUserAuthentication

\nn\t3::BackendUser()->getSettings(`$moduleName = 'nnhelpers', $path = NULL`);¶

Gets user-specific settings for the currently logged-in backend user. See \nn\t3::BackendUser()->updateSettings() to save the data.

\nn\t3::BackendUser()->getSettings('myext'); // => ['wants'=>['drink'=>'coffee']]
\nn\t3::BackendUser()->getSettings('myext', 'wants'); // => ['drink'=>'coffee']
\nn\t3::BackendUser()->getSettings('myext', 'wants.drink'); // => 'coffee'

@return mixed

\nn\t3::BackendUser()->isAdmin();¶

Prüft whether the BE user is an admin. Earlier: $GLOBALS['TSFE']->beUserLogin

\nn\t3::BackendUser()->isAdmin();

@return bool

\nn\t3::BackendUser()->isLoggedIn();¶

Prüft whether a BE user is logged in. Example: Show certain content in the frontend only if the user is logged in in the backend. Früher: $GLOBALS['TSFE']->beUserLogin

\nn\t3::BackendUser()->isLoggedIn();

@return bool

\nn\t3::BackendUser()->start();¶

Start (fake) backend user. Solves the problem that, for example, from the scheduler certain functions like log() are not possible if there is no active BE user.

\nn\t3::BackendUser()->start();

@return \TYPO3\CMS\Backend\FrontendBackendUserAuthentication

\nn\t3::BackendUser()->updateSettings(`$moduleName = 'nnhelpers', $settings = []`);¶

Saves user-specific settings for the currently logged in backend user. These settings are also available to the user after logout/login. See nn\t3::BackendUser()->getSettings('myext') to read out the data.

\nn\t3::BackendUser()->updateSettings('myext', ['wants'=>['drink'=>'coffee']]);

@return array
