Any help to configure jsConnect with CMSMS ?

SquarouSquarou

Hi,

I'm using CmsMadeSimple as CMS for a site, but, as it doesn't provide a flexible board module, I wanted to use Vanilla, with the jsConnect plugin to sign in my Cmsms's FrontEnd Users in Vanilla.

I've read the all the plugin's documentation, and I use the php library to connect the plugin.

Vanilla is embed in a page called "board.html".

Here's the snippet (from "index.php" in php library) used in my page (board.html), before I call the plugin in the page.

$Id = $smarty->get_Template_Vars('userid'); $UserName = $smarty->get_Template_Vars('username'); $Email = $smarty->get_Template_Vars('email'); require_once dirname(__FILE__).'/functions.jsconnect.php'; // 1. Get your client ID and secret here. These must match those in your jsConnect settings. $clientID = "xxxxxx"; $secret = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"; // 2. Grab the current user from your session management system or database here $signedIn = true; // this is just a placeholder // YOUR CODE HERE. // 3. Fill in the user information in a way that Vanilla can understand. $user = array(); if ($signedIn) { $user['uniqueid'] = $Id; $user['name'] = $UserName; $user['email'] = $Email; $user['photourl'] = $Photo; } // 4. Generate the jsConnect string. // This should be true unless you are testing. // You can also use a hash name like md5, sha1 etc which must be the name as the connection settings in Vanilla. $secure = true; WriteJsConnect($user, $_GET, $clientID, $secret, $secure); //EOF

After I've configured the plugin, I add a connection, then click the "Test URL" link and got the following output :

test({"email":"xxxxx@yahoo.xxx","name":xxxx xxxx","photourl":"","uniqueid":"xxxxx","client_id":"xxxxxxx","signature":"xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"}) My infos are well given above : clien_id, signature, email, name and uniqueid are matching.

Now, I try to access to my page (board.html) directly form my browser and here's my output :

{"error":"invalid_request","message":"The client_id parameter is missing."}

The user isn't created and not loggedin. Just the message "Howdy, stranger".

I don't uderstand why the client_id parameter is missing where with the test URL link it shows the good client_id. If I add (just to verify) in functions.jsconnect.php at line 73 the following line : echo $client_id;

I have the good client_id shown.

Maybe the solution to my problem is here vanillaforums.org/discussion/18350/solved-vanilla-admin-account-updated-by-jsconnect-login but I could'nt find any clue.

Any idea to help me and solve this situation ? Thanks, Squarou

    Ok now : I'm trying to connect to the forum's page with : www.mysite.com/board.html#/entry/jsconnect?client_id=xxxxxx

    Still have the {"error":"invalid_request","message":"The client_id parameter is missing."} message, AND it Freezes to "Connecting...".

    DEBUG INFORMATION :

    JsConnectPlugin::GetProvider('xxxxxx')0.000963s select * from GDN_UserAuthenticationProvider UserAuthenticationProvider where AuthenticationKey = 'xxxxxx';

    And

    Controller Data client_id: 'xxxxxx' Title: 'Connecting...' BodyClass: 'Dashboard Entry jsconnect '

    FYI : there's no javascript running in my board.html page in order to not create any interferences.

    Still digging...

    OK. I cleaned all and reinstall everything. You can forget what is written above. I separate the authentication (board.html) page and the forum page (tutos.html).

    My CMS is under mysite/cms Vanilla is in mysite/cms/board

    Embed forum page under : http://www.mysite/cms/tutos.html

    Authentication page : http://www.mysite/cms/board.html

    This is PHP code embed in board.html :

    <?php global $gCms; // Global CMSMS require_once dirname(__FILE__).'/functions.jsconnect.php'; $feu =& cms_utils::get_module('FrontEndUsers'); // $userloggedin = $feu->LoggedIn(); // $Id = $smarty->get_Template_Vars('userid'); $UserName = $smarty->get_Template_Vars('username'); $Email = $smarty->get_Template_Vars('email'); $Photo = ''; // 1. Get your client ID and secret here. These must match those in your jsConnect settings. $clientID = '877175447'; $secret = '1520c7656ab0a94156784adcd7405d2b'; // 2. Grab the current user from your session management system or database here if($userloggedin){ $signedIn = true; // this is just a placeholder } // YOUR CODE HERE. <-- do I need something more here ? // 3. Fill in the user information in a way that Vanilla can understand. $user = array(); if ($signedIn) { $user['uniqueid'] = $Id; $user['name'] = $UserName; $user['email'] = $Email; $user['photourl'] = $Photo; } // 4. Generate the jsConnect string. // This should be true unless you are testing. // You can also use a hash name like md5, sha1 etc which must be the name as the connection settings in Vanilla. $secure = true; WriteJsConnect($user, $_GET, $clientID, $secret, $secure); ?>

    Now, if I want to test URL being logged in :

    http://www.mysite.com/cms/board.html?client_id=877175447&timestamp=1336657761&signature=82621d9da50356aa4a2b876333f8e0f2&Target=%2Fsettings%2Fjsconnect&callback=test

    The result is :

    `test({"email":"xxxxx@xxx.com","name":"xxxxxx","photourl":"","uniqueid":"1378","client_id":"877175447","signature":"1650cee5305a2d6ac2467d500225f100"})`

    At this point, the test URL is successfull isn't it ? The user's values are well transmitted.

    Going back directly to http://www.sfp-apa.fr/cms/board.html?client_id=877175447&callback=foo (still loggedin), the result is :

    foo({"name":"xxxxxx","photourl":""})

    Isn't this callback a little shorty ?

    Now, when I visit the forum's page with this address : http://www.mysite/cms/tutos.html#/entry/jsconnect?client_id=877175447

    I've got a "Connecting..." message but nothing more happens.

    This is the source of the frame for more details.

    Why does I'm stuck at the "connecting" message ? Help appreciated.

    Thanks.
