Hi Dylan
Is there a reason you need to redirect rather than forward? If you had
your preDispatch perform a _forward instead of a complete redirect
then you could perform the login at the address /foo/bar instead of /
login/index and there'd be no need to capture and re-assemble that url.
Alternatively you could use the FlashMessenger action helper to store
such a URL and retrieve it after a successful login or re-set it every
unsuccessful login to ensure it persists.
Hi all
When a user accesses a restricted page on my site and they have no
identity a plugin in preDispatch sets the controller to login and
action to index to render the page /login/index
This works fine. However I want to redirect to the url they were
initially trying to access after they login.
I was thinking of doing something like this in the plugin.
$request->setParam('redirectController', $request-
>getControllerName());
$request->setParam('redirectAction', $request->getActionName());
And then passing the data to a hidden field in my login form such as
redirectUrl.
This gets complicated though. If I want to pass any keys/values.
I could do something like this.
$request->setParam('redirectParams', $request->getParams());
But this won't work for everything as I am using custom routes that
fuddle up getParams(). Ie one of my routes overrides the /controller/
action/key/value/key/value scheme to /controller/action/value1/
value2/value3 and stores the values as an array in its own param.
So really I can't simply just iterate through getParams to build my
redirect url.
I kind of want to access the requestUrl or pathInfo which I noticed
is protected in the request object.
Then I can simply use this to redirect after a login. Is this
possible and what is the difference between the two?
Does anybody have any ideas? Is there an alternate approach?
Hope this makes sense.
Thanks
