How to include init.php in my other class functions? Here is my code example. 

<?php
DEFINE('ROOT_PATH', $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']);
require_once ROOT_PATH.'/forums/init.php';

class getForum {

    public function isLoggedIn() {
		$member = \IPS\Session\Front::i()->member;
		if ($member->member_group_id != \IPS\Settings::i()->guest_group) {
			return true;
		} else {
			return false;
		}
		return false;
    }
  
}

The problem now is that I cant access to init.php classes...

Fatal error: Class 'IPS\Session\Front' not found in ....

Ok, if you suggest me using this api then please explain me how can I make for example users online script in efficient way.

I have 30k registered users and I want show users who have been active in the last 30 minutes, I can sort by lastactivity but I can't set in parameters ( i think) these 30 minutes. Thats mean to do that I need on every page load, loop all 30k users and check lastActivity  object for each member. That I think is not efficient.

So far, I have not found in this API where i can check if a user is logged in or not.

 

E: Btw i fixed my problem, i removed my define from top because that was defined in init.php, very stupid mistake but ty all for help :D

Like I said, to check if a user is logged in or not you check if they are authorized.

In the API you have to be authorized to make POST / GET request to certain endpoints.

If they do NOT have a token (which they get by logging in) then they are not logged in. :)

When it comes to the question regarding the lastActivity.

You can loop over all members, and show the one with the latest timestamp. This gets pushed into an array and then be displayed ordered by or counted.

I'm more of an Angular person and JS so I don't know for PHP but the thing would be the same.

 

anyways glad you fixed the issue.

What are you trying to achieve ?

the init.php is normally there to start the whole process not just do the login btw.

Im trying to make my own functions to more easily code my page.

For example I dont want every time write this to check member is logged in or not 

$member = \IPS\Session\Front::i()->member;
if ($member->member_group_id != \IPS\Settings::i()->guest_group)

I want just do this 

$forum = new getForum();
if ($forum->isLoggedIn() == true)

I hope you understand my idea...

Would it not be easier instead of just grab random functions that depends on other files to use the REST API ?

Thats just what it is for,

The REST API, make a authorization call to the endpoint store the token. Then check if the user has the token.

If they have the token they are logged in. If they don't then we know they are not authenticated so we treat them as a guest.

Random functions? Wtf bro :D

REST API have very limited functions and usage and why I need use API on the same host if I could just get classes...

Alright, let me ask this and i will have to edit my posts accordingly.

Are you creating your own website / page (in PHP) that is been connected to the forum.

OR

Are you creating a page /application / plugin inside the forum (using IPS Pages) etc.

So then instead of modifying and pull(ing) out classes and functions from a place, the REST API is used to do exactly that.

You can, of course, do it but I would not recommend it.

The REST API was created to make things like that work in a good and easy fashion (So an outside website or Application) can talk to the forum.

When you say limited (What is it that you mean with it) What functionality are you missing?

As with the API, you can do the following.

  • Full CRUD functionality (Create, Read (View), Update, Delete) for (Forum, Calendar, Downloads, Blog, Gallery, E-Commerce)
  • Check if a user is logged in or not.
  • Create, Update, View, Delete Users from your application

So I'm not sure what you are referring to as limited / lacking.

API is sometimes not enough. So I'm using it in a hybrid way. init.php and IPB functions classes and API when its easy peasy. 

As i said before i work mostly from the frontend with Typescript so i don't do the inti.php part i don't need it i got an API for 90% of what i need.
