README

Sets a creator_id and modifier_id on records during save using the logged in User.id field. Operates almost identically to the core's Timestamp behavior.

Requirements

• PHP 5.4.16+
• CakePHP 3.0+

Installation

Composer

$ composer require loadsys/cakephp-creatormodifier:~1.0

In your config/bootstrap.php file, add:

Plugin::load('CreatorModifier', ['bootstrap' => false, 'routes' => false]);

OR

bin/cake plugin load CreatorModifier

Usage

• Add this plugin for use in an Table, by adding this line to your Table's initialize() method.

$this->addBehavior('CreatorModifier.CreatorModifier');

• Or to customize the behavior

$this->addBehavior('CreatorModifier.CreatorModifier', [
	'events' => [
		'Model.beforeSave' => [
			// Field storing the User.id who created the record,
			// only triggers on beforeSave when the Entity is new.
			'user_who_created_me_id' => 'new',

			// Field storing the User.id who modified the record,
			// always triggers on beforeSave.
			'user_who_modified_me_id' => 'always'
		]
	],
	// The key to read from `\Cake\Network\Request->session()->read();`
	// to obtain the User.id value to set during saves.
	'sessionUserIdKey' => 'Auth.User.id',
]);
