FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

BvisonlInactivityBundle

Introduction

The purpose of this bundle is to provide a "better" way of handling the log in session of an User in Symfony2. While handling multiple tabs opened and client idletime.

I have to thank (https://github.com/JillElaine/jquery-idleTimeout) for giving me the ideas of how to implement this. Sadly, that bundle was not working properly for me and also it just covered the client part of the issue that I was having so I decided to just make something that merged both client and server.

Pre-requisites

This bundle depends on store.js ==> https://github.com/marcuswestin/store.js/

Installation

  1. Install via composer

  2. Add to the AppKernel

  3. Define the bvisonl_session_timeout parameter in your parameters.yml

If you are using the cookie_lifetime, set it up to a very high value in your config.yml:

Also, if you intend to use this parameter in your HTML (as shown below). You must define it in your twig globals in your config.yml:

  1. Add the javascript somewhere in your HTML (i.e. in the base.html.twig)

  2. Configure the JS plugin to check for user activity

  3. Add the routes of the bundle in the routing.yml if using default ping function:

  4. Remember to clear your cache, install assets, and if using assetic to install them as well

How it works

Basically, if configured as shown above, the process divides itself in 2:

~ Server

On the server, there is a listener that keeps...well...listening the last time a session was used, and compares it to the session_lifetime parameter. If the session should be destroyed, then it will be destroyed. Simple enough for the server.

~ Client

In Symfony2, if you do not affect the session for a configurable amount of time, the session will be destroyed and you won't be able to perform any requests to any secured route. However, let's say that an user is analyzing a very complex report on screen scrolling around and you have the lifetime of your session to 5 minutes, when the user finishes working on the report and attempts to move around the app. On the next request, Symfony2 will re-route the user to the login screen.

To solve this, the plugin takes care of tracking the configured events and maintaining timers (using the store.js). Also, in conjunction with the pingServer functionality, the client will keep pinging the server (which should return a 204, 200 is no good since Symfony2 may return code 200 when redirecting the request to the login screen, if you use the default settings you shouldn't worry about this) everytime the client pings the server, it tells Symfony2's session that the user is still active therefore it won't log them off.
