CostAuthentication
==================

[](#costauthentication)

### What is CostAuthentication?

[](#what-is-costauthentication)

### What exactly does CostAuthentication do?

[](#what-exactly-does-costauthentication-do)

CsnUser has been created with educational purposes to demonstrate how Authentication can be done. It is fully functional.

CsnUser module consists of:

- Login with remember me
- Registration with Captcha and Confirmation email
- Forgotten password with confirmation email.

In addition, the passwords have two levels of protection - a dynamic and static salt.

### What's the use again?

[](#whats-the-use-again)

An alternative to ZfcUser with more functionality added.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

2. Add `CostAuthentication`, `DoctrineModule` and `DoctrineORMModule` in your application configuration at: `./config/application.config.php`. An example configuration may look like the following :

branch 'master' of

```
'modules' => array(
    'Application',
    'DoctrineModule',
    'DoctrineORMModule',
    'CostAuthentication'
)

```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

CostAuthentication requires setting up a Connection for Doctrine, a simple Mail configuration and importing a database schema.

1. Create a new database (or use an existing one, dedicated to your application).
2. Copy the sample Doctrine configuration from `./vendor/cost/cost-authentication/config/doctrineorm.local.php.dist` to `./config/autoload` renaming it to **doctrineorm.local.php**. Edit the file, replacing the values (*username*, *password*, etc) with your personal database parameters.
3. Run `./vendor/bin/doctrine-module orm:schema-tool:create` to generate the database schema. Import the sample SQL data (for default roles and languages) located in `./vendor/cost/cost-authentication/data/SampleData.sql`. You can easily do that with *PhpMyAdmin* for instance.
4. Copy the sample Mail configuration from `./vendor/cost/cost-authentication/config/mail.config.local.php.dist` to `./config/autoload` renaming it to **mail.config.local.php**. Edit the file, replacing the values (*host*, *username*, etc) with your SMTP server parameters.
5. Depend on Database overwrite Enity "User" with class under data/EntityPlatform and rename it. Options

---

The CostAuthentication module has some options to allow you to quickly customize the basic functionality.

Create novigo folder under vendor directory After installing CostAuthentication, copy `./vendor/cost/cost-authentication/config/cost-authentication.global.php.dist` to `./config/autoload`, renaming it to **cost-authentication.global.php** and change the values as desired, following the instructions.

The following options are available:

- **STATIC\_SALT** Constant string value, prepended to the password before hashing
- **login\_redirect\_route** String value, name of a route in the application which the user will be redirected to after a successful login.
- **logout\_redirect\_route** String value, name of a route in the application which the user will be redirected to after logging out.
- **nav\_menu** Bool value, show or hide navigation menu.
