I have an app where the user must be able to login with either their
email address or mobile (cell) phone number. I'm using CakePHP 1.3
with Auth component for authentication and all is well. I even have
the desired functionality working with the below code in the
beforeFilter() of my accounts controller (my users table is called
accounts).
app/controllers/accounts_controller.php
function beforeFilter()
{
parent::beforeFilter();
$this->Auth->allow('login', 'logout');
if ($this->action == 'login') {
if (!empty($this->data)) {
if (strpos($this->data['Account']['email'], '@') ===
false) {
$this->data['Account']['mobile'] = preg_replace('/
[^0-9]/', '', $this->data['Account']['email']);
unset($this->data['Account']['email']);
$this->Auth->fields = array('username' => 'mobile',
'password' => 'password');
} else {
$this->Auth->fields = array('username' => 'email',
'password' => 'password');
}
$this->Auth->login($this->data);
}
}
}
And here's the form:
app/views/accounts/login.ctp
<?php
echo $form->create('Account', array('action' => 'login'));
echo $form->input('email', array('label' => 'Email Address or Mobile
Phone Number'));
echo $form->input('password');
echo $form->end('Sign In');
?>
As I said, this works fine. I can login with an emaill address or
mobile phone number. However, if I submit the login form with empty
values (enter nothing and hit submit), I get a blank screen (instead
of the login form with an authMessage).
Any ideas?
