Hi,
I was also 'agonizing' how to get the user Id in a typical site map without using
{../../../ID} !
After digging around the source, I have 2 ideas
1) Modify DefaultContextManager in Session framework to store each Session Context
into the Session using their context name as the Session Attribute. In this way we
might be able to use
{session:[EMAIL PROTECTED]'authentication']/authentication/ID}
However this may not be possible as this gives up the ability to protect the
reserved Session Context such as Request, Response etc.
2) Write a SessionContext Input Module to read out the attributes. We might then be
able to do this
{session-context:authentication:/authentication/ID}
Until that is available, here is my solution to your problem.
Add this to your sitemap's set of actions
<map:action logger="sitemap.action.session-propagator" name="session-prop"
src="org.apache.cocoon.acting.SessionPropagatorAction"/>
Add this right inside your existing auth-login action
<map:act type="session-prop">
<map:parameter name="userid" value="{ID}"/>
<map:parameter name="password" value="{password}"/>
</map:act>
When you need the user ID just use
<map:parameter name="userid" value="{session-attr:userid}"/>
The session propagation action writes the ID and password emitted by the auth-login
action into session attributes. You can then access the value using session-attr input
module.
Cheers,
Edison
