README

A session-based login for Craft CMS 4.x/5.x that authenticates users via the Church Community Builder API.

Requirements

This plugin requires Craft CMS 4 or later.

Installation

To install the plugin, follow these instructions.

1. Open your terminal and go to your Craft project:

   cd /path/to/project
   

2. Then tell Composer to load the plugin:

   composer require thisanimus/craft-ccb-login
   

3. In the Control Panel, go to Settings → Plugins and click the “Install” button for craft-ccb-login.

Configuration

In the Craft Control Panel, enter your CCB API User Credentials. These will be used to make the necessary API requests.

Overview

• User submits a username and password through a form on the front end of your site.
• The plugin passes those creds to the "individual_profile_from_login_password" service of the CCB API.
• If the user exists in CCB, the plugin then fetches the user's profile, and the IDs of the groups this person is a part of.
• The plugin sets the authentication status and the user information as session variables.

Successful Login

$_SESSION = [
	'ccb_authenticated':true,
	'ccb_individual'=>[/* The whole CCB Individual Response */],
	'ccb_groups'=>[1,5,34,388]
];

Unsuccessful Login

$_SESSION = [
	'ccb_authenticated':false,
	'ccb_error'=>'Whatever error the CCB API throws'
];

Session Vars

Access the session vars in your template using the included plugin twig var:

{{ dump(craft.ccblogin.userSession) }}

This gives you access to a user's authentication status, profile info, and group memberships. You can use these as conditions when determining what gets rendered in the twig template.

Twig Templates

Here are some templates to get you started:
