Detailed Description

The User object encapsulates all of the user-specific settings (user_id, name, rights, email address, options, last login time).

Client classes use the getXXX() functions to access these fields. These functions do all the work of determining whether the user is logged in, whether the requested option can be satisfied from cookies or whether a database query is needed. Most of the settings needed for rendering normal pages are set in the cookie to minimize use of the database.

Note: User implements Authority to ease transition. Always prefer using existing Authority or obtaining a proper Authority implementation.

Stability: newable: in 1.35 only, the constructor is

Access: internal: since 1.36

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ __construct()

User::__construct ( )

Lightweight constructor for an anonymous user.

Stability: stable: to call since 1.35

Access: internal: since 1.36, use the UserFactory service instead

◆ __toString()

User::__toString ( )

Returns: string

Definition at line 269 of file User.php.

References getName().

◆ addGroup()

User::addGroup	(	$group,
		$expiry = `null`
	)

Add the user to the given group.

This takes immediate effect. If the user is already in the group, the expiry time will be updated to the new expiry time. (If $expiry is omitted or null, the membership will be altered to never expire.)

Deprecated:: since 1.35 Use UserGroupManager::addUserToGroup instead

Parameters

string	$group	Name of the group to add
string \| null	$expiry	Optional expiry timestamp in any format acceptable to wfTimestamp(), or null if the group assignment should not expire

Returns: bool

Definition at line 2289 of file User.php.

◆ addToDatabase()

User::addToDatabase ( )

Add this existing user object to the database.

If the user already exists, a fatal status object is returned, and the user object is initialised with the data from the database.

Previously, this function generated a DB error due to a key conflict if the user already existed. Many extension callers use this function in code along the lines of:

$user = User::newFromName( $name ); if ( !$user->isRegistered() ) { $user->addToDatabase(); } // do something with $user...

However, this was vulnerable to a race condition (T18020). By initialising the user object if the user exists, we aim to support this calling sequence as far as possible.

Note that if the user exists, this function will acquire a write lock, so it is still advisable to make the call conditional on isRegistered(), and to commit the transaction after calling.

Exceptions

MWException

Returns: Status

◆ changeAuthenticationData()

User::changeAuthenticationData ( array $data )

Changes credentials of the user.

This is a convenience wrapper around AuthManager::changeAuthenticationData. Note that this can return a status that isOK() but not isGood() on certain types of failures, e.g. when no provider handled the change.

Parameters

array $data A set of authentication data in fieldname => value format. This is the same data you would pass the changeauthenticationdata API - 'username', 'password' etc.

Returns: Status

Since: 1.27

Definition at line 1917 of file User.php.

References StatusValue\newGood().

◆ checkAndSetTouched()

User::checkAndSetTouched ( )

Bump user_touched if it didn't change since this object was loaded.

On success, the mTouched field is updated. The user serialization cache is always cleared.

Access: internal

Returns: bool Whether user_touched was actually updated

Since: 1.26

Definition at line 1325 of file User.php.

References $success, DB_PRIMARY, and wfGetDB().

◆ checkPasswordValidity()

User::checkPasswordValidity ( $password )

Check if this is a valid password for this user.

Returns a Status object with a set of messages describing problems with the password. If the return status is fatal, the action should be refused and the password should not be checked at all (this is mainly meant for DoS mitigation). If the return value is OK but not good, the password can be checked, but the user should not be able to set their password to this. The value of the returned Status object will be an array which can have the following fields:

forceChange (bool): if set to true, the user should not be allowed to log with this password unless they change it during the login process (see ResetPasswordSecondaryAuthenticationProvider).
suggestChangeOnLogin (bool): if set to true, the user should be prompted for a password change on login.

Parameters

string $password Desired password

Returns: Status

Since: 1.23

Definition at line 1010 of file User.php.

References StatusValue\newGood().

◆ clearInstanceCache()

static User::newFromName	(	$name,
		$validate = `'valid'`
	)

static

See also: UserFactory::newFromName

Deprecated:: since 1.36, use a UserFactory instead

This is slightly less efficient than newFromId(), so use newFromId() if you have both an ID and a name handy.

Parameters

string	$name	Username, validated by Title::newFromText()
string \| bool	$validate	Validate username.Type of validation to use: false No validation 'valid' Valid for batch processes 'usable' Valid for batch processes and login 'creatable' Valid for batch processes, login and account creation, except that true is accepted as an alias for 'valid', for BC.

Returns: User|false User object, or false if the username is invalid (e.g. if it contains illegal characters or is an IP address). If the username is not present in the database, the result will be a user object with a name, zero user ID and default settings.

◆ newFromRow()

static User::newFromRow	(	$row,
		$data = `null`
	)

static

Create a new user object from a user row.

The row should have the following fields from the user table in it:

either user_name or user_id to load further data if needed (or both)
user_real_name
all other fields (email, etc.) It is useless to provide the remaining fields if either user_id, user_name and user_real_name are not provided because the whole row will be loaded once more from the database when accessing them.

Parameters

stdClass	$row	A row from the user table
array \| null	$data	Further data to load into the object (see User::loadFromRow for valid keys)

Returns: User

◆ newFromSession()

static User::newFromSession ( WebRequest $request = null )

static

Create a new user object using data from session.

Returns: User

Definition at line 731 of file User.php.

Referenced by RequestContext\getUser().

◆ newSystemUser()

static User::newSystemUser	(	$name,
		$options = `[]`
	)

static

Static factory method for creation of a "system" user from username.

A "system" user is an account that's used to attribute logged actions taken by MediaWiki itself, as opposed to a bot or human user. Examples might include the 'Maintenance script' or 'Conversion script' accounts used by various scripts in the maintenance/ directory or accounts such as 'MediaWiki message delivery' used by the MassMessage extension.

This can optionally create the user if it doesn't exist, and "steal" the account if it does exist.

"Stealing" an existing user is intended to make it impossible for normal authentication processes to use the account, effectively disabling the account for normal use:

Email is invalidated, to prevent account recovery by emailing a temporary password and to disassociate the account from the existing human.
The token is set to a magic invalid value, to kill existing sessions and to prevent $this->setToken() calls from resetting the token to a valid value.
SessionManager is instructed to prevent new sessions for the user, to do things like deauthorizing OAuth consumers.
AuthManager is instructed to revoke access, to invalidate or remove passwords and other credentials.

Parameters

string	$name	Username
array	$options	Options are: validate: Type of validation to use: false No validation 'valid' Valid for batch processes 'usable' Valid for batch processes and login 'creatable' Valid for batch processes, login and account creation, default 'valid'. Deprecated since 1.36. create: Whether to create the user if it doesn't already exist, default true steal: Whether to "disable" the account for normal use if it already exists, default false

Returns: User|null

◆ pingLimiter()

User::pingLimiter	(	$action = `'edit'`,
		$incrBy = `1`
	)

Primitive rate limits: enforce maximum actions per time period to put a brake on flooding.

The method generates both a generic profiling point and a per action one (suffix being "-$action").

Note: When using a shared cache like memcached, IP-address last-hit counters will be shared across wikis.

Parameters

string	$action	Action to enforce; 'edit' if unspecified
int	$incrBy	Positive amount to increment counter by [defaults to 1]

Returns: bool True if a rate limiter was tripped

◆ touch()

User::touch ( )

Update the "touched" timestamp for the user.

This is useful on various login/logout events when making sure that a browser or proxy that has multiple tenants does not suffer cache pollution where the new user sees the old users content.
