Note: This feature is available since UCRM 2.14.0-beta1.
The public.php file can be used to provide a customized public page or even more of them if you decide to use $_GET parameters with some routing.
However you might want to restrict some or all of these pages to only be available to the admins of the UCRM installation and/or to the clients. Since the plugin is running on the same domain as UCRM itself, it will also receive the UCRM cookies. In this case you can use the PHPSESSID cookie to ask UCRM about the current session. This is done by calling the /current-user URL and forwarding the PHPSESSID cookie.
Note that, the URL and the required cookies changed in UNMS 1.0 (integrated version).
The new URL is/crm/current-user.
The required cookies arenms-crm-php-session-idandnms-session.
You can use UCRM Plugin SDK, which supports the new way since version 0.5.1.
You can use the received information to:
- determine if the user can access the page
- check if they should be somehow limited (for example that they only have read access)
- show only information relevant for that user (for example only show services for the current client)
Here is an example function using CURL:
function retrieveCurrentUser(string $ucrmPublicUrl): array
{
$url = sprintf('%scurrent-user', $ucrmPublicUrl);
$headers = [
'Content-Type: application/json',
'Cookie: PHPSESSID=' . preg_replace('~[^a-zA-Z0-9]~', '', $_COOKIE['PHPSESSID'] ?? ''),
];
return curlQuery($url, $headers);
}
function curlQuery(string $url, array $headers = [], array $parameters = []): array
{
if ($parameters) {
$url .= '?' . http_build_query($parameters);
}
$c = curl_init();
curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, true);
curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 2);
$result = curl_exec($c);
$error = curl_error($c);
$errno = curl_errno($c);
if ($errno || $error) {
throw new \Exception(sprintf('Error for request %s. Curl error %s: %s', $url, $errno, $error));
}
$httpCode = curl_getinfo($c, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
if ($httpCode < 200 || $httpCode >= 300) {
throw new \Exception(
sprintf('Error for request %s. HTTP error (%s): %s', $url, $httpCode, $result),
$httpCode
);
}
curl_close($c);
if (! $result) {
throw new \Exception(sprintf('Error for request %s. Empty result.', $url));
}
$decodedResult = json_decode($result, true);
if ($decodedResult === null) {
throw new \Exception(
sprintf('Error for request %s. Failed JSON decoding. Response: %s', $url, $result)
);
}
return $decodedResult;
}Below you can see an example JSON that the /current-user endpoint returns for a logged in admin.
For client the isClient field will be true, clientId will be set, but userGroup, permissions and specialPermissions will all be empty.
If the user is not authenticated the endpoint will return a 403 HTTP code.
The items in specialPermissions can have these values: allow, deny.
The items in permissions can have these values: view, edit, denied.
