Hey there if you want to know how to get user details in Jhipster . Check this
1. First import UserService in your class
2. Then declare variable
Private UserService userService
3. Initialize in constructor
class_constructor( UserService userService){
this.userService = userService;
}
4. Then You can access details like this using getter values
userService.getUserWithAuthorities().get().fieldName()
For Id : userService.getUserWithAuthorities().get().getId()
For Name : userService.getUserWithAuthorities().get().getFirstName()
userService.getUserWithAuthorities().get().getLastName()
For Email : userService.getUserWithAuthorities().get().getEmail()
For Username(login) : userService.getUserWithAuthorities().get().getlogin()
This way you can access current logged in user Details.
You can use these values by setting directly or creating variables:
String userEmail = userService.getUserWithAuthorities().get().getEmail()
For any queries comment below....
Hi,
Case 1 - yes, you can call userWithAuthorities to get the current logged in user.
Case 2 - this method works on JWT, so if all users are logged in but have different credentials, you will get the user using the resource.
Here you can check updated methods User Service Jhipster
Thanks
Please excuse my questions if they're dummy:
- Case 1 : I have an entity that i'm updating in EntityResource does this method give the User who is actually using the resource?
- Case 2 : If i have many user connected and using the same resource (EntityResource update) will this work properly and for each session, provide the corresponding user?
