Hey there,
I’m trying to set a password to a module (site.com/admin) via basic http auth (normally via .htaccess).
Normally I would just create the .htaccess file but of course yii uses virtual URLs so the folders don’t exist.
httpd.conf has a <Location> directive which I could use but I really would like to keep the configuration contained within the application (either a Yii/PHP setting, or a .htaccess thing…)
Anyone had this problem and/or got any solutions?
I found beforeControllerAction and ended up doing some sort of hacky job:
public function beforeControllerAction($controller, $action)
{
if(parent::beforeControllerAction($controller, $action))
{
// this method is called before any module controller action is performed
// you may place customized code here
$loginUrl = $this->name.'/site/login';
session_start();
if (
!isset($_SESSION['logged_in'])
&&
Yii::app()->request->requestUri != Yii::app()->request->baseUrl.'/'.$loginUrl
)
{
$controller->redirect(Yii::app()->request->baseUrl.'/'.$loginUrl);
return false;
}
return true;
}
else
return false;
}
Would still like a HTTP auth popup type deal though…
