Implementsyii\base\Configurable, yii\filters\auth\AuthInterface
Available since version2.0
Source Code https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/framework/filters/auth/CompositeAuth.php

CompositeAuth is an action filter that supports multiple authentication methods at the same time.

The authentication methods contained by CompositeAuth are configured via $authMethods, which is a list of supported authentication class configurations.

The following example shows how to support three authentication methods:

public function behaviors()
{
    return [
        'compositeAuth' => [
            'class' => \yii\filters\auth\CompositeAuth::className(),
            'authMethods' => [
                \yii\filters\auth\HttpBasicAuth::className(),
                \yii\filters\auth\QueryParamAuth::className(),
            ],
        ],
    ];
}

Property Details

$authMethods public property

The supported authentication methods. This property should take a list of supported authentication methods, each represented by an authentication class or configuration.

If this property is empty, no authentication will be performed.

Note that an auth method class must implement the yii\filters\auth\AuthInterface interface.

public array $authMethods = []

Method Details

authenticate() public method

Authenticates the current user.

public yii\web\IdentityInterface authenticate ( $user, $request, $response )
$user yii\web\User
$request yii\web\Request
$response yii\web\Response
return yii\web\IdentityInterface

The authenticated user identity. If authentication information is not provided, null will be returned.

throws yii\web\UnauthorizedHttpException

if authentication information is provided but is invalid.

beforeAction() public method

This method is invoked right before an action is to be executed (after all possible filters.) You may override this method to do last-minute preparation for the action.

public boolean beforeAction ( $action )
$action yii\base\Action

The action to be executed.

return boolean

Whether the action should continue to be executed.

challenge() public method

Generates challenges upon authentication failure.

For example, some appropriate HTTP headers may be generated.

public void challenge ( $response )
$response yii\web\Response
