Configuration Options explained
===============================

[](#configuration-options-explained)

The filter needs the following options:

- class: The filter class. Allways: 'attributecollector:AttributeCollector'
- uidfield: The name of the field used as an unique user identifier. The configured collector recives this uid so it can search for extra attributes.
- collector: The configuration of the collector used to retrieve the extra attributes

The following option is optional:

- existing: Tell the filter what to do when a collected attribute already exists in the user attributes. Values can be: 'preserve': Ignore collected attribute and preserve the old one. This one is the default behaviour. 'replace': Ignore original attribute and replace it with the collected one. 'merge': Merge the collected attribute into the array of the original one.

The collector configuration array needs at least one option:

Some other options may be needed by the collector, refer to the collector documentation.
