Symfony 5 Authentication Tutorial Part 1

[@balazs.spanyik]

Quick note for 6:55 _"Guarantee every user at least has ROLE_USER"_ doesn't mean that YOU have to guarantee it. That line itself, in the User class, guarantees it. So you don't have to store ROLE_USER in the database. You certainly can store it, but then Symfony's gonna duplicate it in memory, which only makes array_unique's job harder. :)

[@GaryClarkeTech]

Yes..I don't do it for the users which are created later in the course. It was just do demostrate how a role would look in the database. Something other than ROLE_USER would probably have been a better example. That said..I appreciate your help Balázs 🤝

[@GaryClarkeTech]

Hallo, thanks for your tutorial... How to prevent going back to the secured page after logout in symfony ?

[@GaryClarkeTech]

You can add invalidate_session: true under the logout key in security.yaml

[@dirkkuijer8440]

Thnx to you it worked finally!

[@pawecyrklaf4729]

Amazing video :D

[@GaryClarkeTech]

Cheers Paweł 👍

[@tomatomov9061]

So we basically didn't understand how to add lines under firewall. Just some autogenerated things

[@alenjose1122]

Thank you for the tutorials.....Can you please make a video on how to setup a login page manually and how to add session start and destroy features to it and all???....It would be helpful as I am a beginner.

[@GaryClarkeTech]

Hi Alen...that's a good suggestion. I will include this in my learn OO PHP series some time in the future. Thank you.

[@vjianu]

hi mate love your vids just starting with Symfony so a very good source of education, one thing I want to ask if you could do a video on how to implement a user auth with steamid that would be great , thanks for the awesome content

[@GaryClarkeTech]

Thanks Vas..glad you find it helpful. Decent suggestion...think I'd need to do some learning myself first but I'll defo think about it!

Thank you for sharing your knowledge, how would I customize the redirection after logout and if there are two ways to login, thank you

[@GaryClarkeTech]

You're welcome. To change redirection after logout, you need to change the target key under the logout key in security.yaml logout: path: app_logout # where to redirect after logout target: app_login

[@Popchansons]

Hi Gary, thank you very much for this tutorial. Do these videos deal with the "new" Authentication System that CAN be used now and WILL be used in Symfony 6? #enable_authenticator_manager

[@GaryClarkeTech]

Hi Sebastian...that's a good question. I've been thinking about that and how to approach it. I wasn't sure whether to wait til 6 or not to cover it. There are even slight changes to the current system in 5.3 so it's a challenge to know what to record and when! I'll give it more thought.

[@Popchansons]

@@GaryClarkeTech The tutorial ist good as it is. Maybe a single Video in a few months could help to show just the differences. I don't know, I'm just a beginner. Thanks again.

[@shamshid]

@@GaryClarkeTech I believe since 5.3 newly created Symfony projects are generated using Symfony's Passport system.

[@mosesegboh]

how can I get the Id of the currently logged in user?

[@GaryClarkeTech]

Like this: symfony.com/doc/current/security.html#fetching-the-user-object

[@younex111]

Great Job Gary Go Ahead just i have a proposition it would be very nice if you implement manager interface roles (Admin,Editor,User) and everyone of them has his privileges while the admin could assign and change roles hope its good idea to share have a nice day :)

[@GaryClarkeTech]

Thanks Younes and good suggestion. I'll see what I can come up with 👍

[@younex111]
