Feature Request: get_current_user_id

  • I encountered heaps of issues with getting the current user if they’re logged in using JWT. With some help from someone else on here I use this solution.

    Maybe you could incorporate a similar function into the plugin.

    e.g.

    function get_current_user_id() {
  if (class_exists('Jwt_Auth_Public')) {
      $jwt = new \Jwt_Auth_Public('jwt-auth', '1.1.0');
      $token = $jwt->validate_token(false);
      if (\is_wp_error($token)) {
          return false;
      }

      return $token->data->user->id;
  } else {
      return false;
  }
}

  • God job. For readability: (and UNIX coding style…)

    
function get_current_user_id() {
  if (!class_exists('Jwt_Auth_Public'))
      return false;
 
 $jwt = new \Jwt_Auth_Public('jwt-auth', '1.1.0');
 $token = $jwt->validate_token(false);
 if (\is_wp_error($token))
          return false;
 return $token->data->user->id;
}

    @mullibahr Nice one! Thanks!

    I have added the following code in functions.php to hold the User_id, avatar, role

    function jwt_auth_function($data, $user) { 
	$data['user_role'] = $user->roles; 
	$data['user_id'] = $user->ID; 
	$data['avatar']= get_avatar_url($user->ID);
	return $data; 
} 
	add_filter( 'jwt_auth_token_before_dispatch', 'jwt_auth_function', 10, 2 );

    If you want to use the token then please use this code for the same.

    function add_extra_para($data, $user)
{
   
     $data = array(
      'success' => true,
      'token'    => $data['token'],
      'user_email' => $user->data->user_email,
      'user_nicename' => $user->data->user_nicename,
      'user_display_name' => $user->data->display_name,
      'user_id' => $user->data->ID,
    );

     return $data;
}
add_filter('jwt_auth_token_before_dispatch', 'add_extra_para', 10, 2);

    Simply use the Access Token with a GET request to /wp/v2/users/me after getting your access token. (Rather like validating the new token)
