Identifying the moment of successful login using AuthComponent
How can I run code on AuthComponent's successful login _event_? For example, to record the login date/time in the database? I've tried writing my own login() action in the controller--but by the time that function executes, login has already been performed by the component--so I don't know whether the login _just occurred_, or it happened five minutes ago! Ideas are greatly appreciated. Please note, I am NOT asking how to determine whether the user logged in _at some point_ in the recent past. I want to map the event itself.

Re: Identifying the moment of successful login using AuthComponent
Thanks. I am just a Cake novice--should I infer that there is no solution to my problem that uses AuthComponent as-is? I'm guessing I could modify a few lines in AuthComponent to add a callback, and get the behavior I want--but I'd rather not go down that road if there are simpler options.

Re: Identifying the moment of successful login using AuthComponent
I just presented you with the solution. You check if Auth has been set within login() then do your database updates. On Feb 2, 1:57 pm, Johnny Cupcake sparklew...@hotmail.com wrote: Thanks.

PS if there's no identified user in beforeFilter and there is in the login function - they just logged in.

Re: Identifying the moment of successful login using AuthComponent
Nevermind, the book does cover this situation. http://book.cakephp.org/view/248/AuthComponent-Variables#autoRedirect-395 The key to the puzzle is understanding that when your login() executes, your form contents have _already_ been processed by AuthComponent...so the login event condition is when (FORM_NOT_EMPTY CREDENTIALS_NOT_ALREADY_REJECTED). I swear, I did read the docs before I asked in the first place ;) On Feb 2, 1:22 pm, Johnny Cupcake sparklew...@hotmail.com wrote: How can I run code on AuthComponent's successful login _event_?
