Tersus: Re: How to log in to tersus application through PHP ?

Re: How to log in to tersus application through PHP ?Date: Aug 20, 2008I can suggest the following method:In PHP (or any other technology)

Authenticate User

Create a suitably random token which identifies the user's session, and store it together with the user in the database

Redirect to the Tersus application using a URL in the format: http://host[:port]/tersusapp/#Perspective=loginperspective&View=loginview&Token=token

In tersusapp, create loginview which should contain an init process similar to the following:

Display Actions/Get View Parameters queries the URL and returns the parameter(s) specified as exit(s).Get User by Token, should query the database for the user (and probably perform some additional modeling such as checking expiration time, and deleting the token).Security/Set Logged-in User does just thatReload Application causes the client to reload the application with permissions applicable to the currently logged in user.An alternate implementation may make use of cookies (set in PHP, and read in Tersus, using Display Actions/Set Cookie).Regards,DavidSee Also:
