5.7.76.3. SUBROUTINES¶
issue_api_token($login_name)
Description: Creates a token that can be used for API calls on the web page. Params: None. Returns: The token.
issue_new_user_account_token($login_name)
Description: Creates and sends a token per email to the email address requesting a new user account. It doesn't check whether the user account already exists. The user will have to use this token to confirm the creation of their user account. Params: $login_name - The new login name requested by the user. Returns: Nothing. It throws an error if the same user made the same request in the last few minutes.
sub IssueEmailChangeToken($new_email)
Description: Sends two distinct tokens per email to the old and new email addresses to confirm the email address change for the given user. These tokens remain valid for the next MAX_TOKEN_AGE days. Params: $new_email - The new email address of the user. Returns: The token to cancel the request.
IssuePasswordToken($user)
Description: Sends a token per email to the given user. This token can be used to change the password (e.g. in case the user cannot remember their password and wishes to enter a new one). Params: $user - User object of the user requesting a new password. Returns: Nothing. It throws an error if the same user made the same request in the last few minutes.
CleanTokenTable()
Description: Removes all tokens older than MAX_TOKEN_AGE days from the DB. This means that these tokens will now be considered as invalid. Params: None. Returns: Nothing.
GenerateUniqueToken($table, $column)
Description: Generates and returns a unique token. This token is unique in the $column of the $table. This token is NOT stored in the DB. Params: $table (optional): The table to look at (default: tokens). $column (optional): The column to look at for uniqueness (default: token). Returns: A token which is unique in $column.
Cancel($token, $cancelaction, $vars)
Description: Invalidates an existing token, generally when the token is used for an action which is not the one expected. An email is sent to the user who originally requested this token to inform them that this token has been invalidated (e.g. because an hacker tried to use this token for some malicious action). Params: $token: The token to invalidate. $cancelaction: The reason why this token is invalidated. $vars: Some additional information about this action. Returns: Nothing.
DeletePasswordTokens($user_id, $reason)
Description: Cancels all password tokens for the given user. Emails are sent to the user to inform them about this action. Params: $user_id: The user ID of the user account whose password tokens are canceled. $reason: The reason why these tokens are canceled. Returns: Nothing.
HasEmailChangeToken($user_id)
Description: Returns any existing token currently used for an email change for the given user. Params: $user_id - A user ID. Returns: A token if it exists, else undef.
DeleteEmailChangeTokens($user_id)
Description: Cancels all email change tokens for the given user. Params: $user_id: The user ID of the user account whose email change tokens are canceled. Returns: Nothing.
GetTokenData($token)
Description: Returns all stored data for the given token. Params: $token - A valid token. Returns: The user ID, the date and time when the token was created, the (event)data stored with that token, and its type.
