I am currently trying to implement a method that swaps people over to a new plan. The problem I am having is that the coupon from the old plan carries over and the user is not charged. Every time I try to remove the old coupon, it doesn't seem to allow it.
protected function swapToYearlyPlan(){
$user = Auth::user();
// Tried this, doesn't work
// $user->subscription()->retrieve($user->stripe_subscription)->deleteDiscount();
// This works fine
$user->subscription('Gold Annual Plan')->swap();
// Tried this, doesn't work
//$user->subscription()->applyCoupon(NULL);
return 'Upgraded plan!';
}
Thoughts are appreciated. Cheers.
Here is what ended up working:
protected function swapToYearlyPlan(){
$company = Auth::user()->company;
$customer = $company->subscription()->getStripeCustomer();
if($customer->subscription->discount instanceof Stripe_Object){
$customer->subscription->deleteDiscount();
}
$company->subscription("Gold Annual Plan")->swapAndInvoice();
// Dealing with GST is a whole other issue
return 'Upgraded Gold Annual plan!';
}
I'm dealing with legacy code here, so there's a lot of details which aren't clear. For example, the deleteDiscount method isn't even a feature of Laravel Cashier, or at least the version I'm working with. That method is found included with my project in a whole other set of code located here: vendor/stripe/stripe-php/lib/Stripe, whereas Laravel Cashier is located in vendor/laravel/cashier/src/Laravel/Cashier.
Overall, I have found the Laravel documentation, once again, to be lacking verbosity and examples. It said it could deal with coupons, and it showed how to add one, but not how to remove one, so that makes me think that it can't, which might be why other libraries had to be included. But that's all speculation.

I am using code Igniter for my PHP project. I want to give provision in my site such that users can create new pages of their own, and access them directly from domain.com/their_page_name.
But, my developers have raised a concern that, 1000's of dynamic links that are presented in the format of domain.com/ is "not good for site's performance". For some 10-15 pages, it is fine. But, beyond that, it would effect the site's performance.
So, they proposed that the URL format should be like www.domain.com/something/page_name (here, 'something' is the controller name, as they mentioned it)
But, I really can't sacrifice my framework nor my requirement.
Is there any way that I can achieve the format of "www.domain.com/page_name" without effecting the site's performance?
Thanks in advance.
No issues on
Www.domain.com\userpagename.
It's not a framework issues. Codeigniter support this type of URL.you can create n no of URL.
Performance will matter how you are handling that particular controller or that particular function.
If may be 10 may be 100 ,work around same way.
You just have to put route accordingly.
$route[default_controller]=userurl;
$route[userurl/(:any)]=userurl yourfunction/$1`;
What it seems you need is dynamic controller, which can be done using Codeigniter's build in function _remap().
A code example is:
public function _remap($method){
if($method != null){
$this->yourFunction($method);
} else {
// handle the error as you like
}
}
public function yourFunction($key){
// your code logic here
}
All this code block goes inside your controller.
Edit: the performance is exactlu the same as going with domain.com/controller/method. What it matters, as stated above, is how you handle the data.
I was trying to get this working in a typical belongsTo relation. However it keeps saying that the column is not set in the model, even if looking in the actual database it is there.
I have tried to look at the source code as well as try many approaches to bypass this issue, however nothing seems to do anything.
public function modifiedBy()
{
return $this->belongsTo('\Modules\Users\Model\User', 'modified_by');
}
public function createdBy()
{
return $this->belongsTo('\Modules\Users\Model\User', 'created_by');
}
This is the code inside the model, I use PSR-0 to define modules, better splitting up logic (no issues with that) but using this it would give an error of
Undefined property: \Modules\Module\Model\CurrentModel::$modified_by
This is coming from a seed to push some initial info into the database.
$user = Sentinel::findById(1);
$model = new CurrentModel;
$model->modifiedBy()->associate($user);
$model->save();
This is basically how it goes together, I have tried for some time to figure out what is wrong but I am calling blanks. Any ideas?
Found out a solution. Not a fix though but I would consider this an issue with laravel so I may look into adding it as a bug report (although this could be fixed in laravel 5?).
Basically with modified_by I need to define the column it is using and not let laravel automatically generate it (in order to do this "cleanly"). However the "bug" (only calling it a bug as currently I can only see this as an unintended problem) makes it so you cannot define the column it will be using, you have to let laravel decide it for you.
So I changed the functions to look like this:
public function modifiedby()
{
return $this->belongsTo('\Modules\Users\Model\User');
}
This makes laravel assume the column is modifiedby_id, but by changing my migrations to reflect that there was no more error.
I'm trying to find all users w/ a specific permissions list in Sentry with laravel. The problem is that Sentry::findAllUsersWithAccess() returns an array().
as stated in their github repository i pinpointed their code to be
public function findAllWithAccess($permissions)
{
return array_filter($this->findAll(), function($user) use ($permissions)
{
return $user->hasAccess($permissions);
});
}
right now, it gets all users and filter it out with users with permission list. the big problem would be when I as a developer would get the set of users, it'll show ALL users, i'm developing an app which may hold thousands of users and i only need to get users with sepcific permission lists.
With regards to that would love to use one with a ->paginate() capability.
Any thoughts how to get it without getting all the users.
Why dont you override the findAllWithAccess() method and write your own implementation, which uses mysql where instead of array_filter().
I dont know your project structure and the underlying db schema, so all i can give you atm is the link to the eloquent documentation Querying Relations (whereHas).
In case you dont know where to start: its always a good idea to look at the ServiceProvider (SentryServiceProvider, where the UserProvider, which holds the findAllWidthAccess() method, is registered). Override the registerUserProvider method and return your own implementation of the UserProvider (with the edited findAllWithAccess() method).
Hope that will point you in the right direction.
In Laravel you can do pagination manually on arrays:
$paginator = Paginator::make($items, $totalItems, $perPage);
Check the docs: http://laravel.com/docs/pagination
It's a simple question with no answer in search(google/bing/stackoverflow). The answer of course could be complicated.
I've read a couple articles on FPC within Magento, and have yet to really nail down where I need to add or create code so that when certain URL parameters are sent it serves up cached version of the page and not try and re-cache with the URL parameters.
http://www.kingletas.com/2012/09/how-does-magento-full-page-cache-works.html
So for example, when you go to http://www.example.com/shoes it loads the correct cached version. however, with google analytics and any other type of 3rd party reporting, especially with unique identifiers, it will reload the page as if it wasn't cached. So http://www.example.com/shoes?utm_key=A1537BD94EF07 would create a new cached version of that page and so on.
I would like to be able to exclude certain URL parameters and not all. Mainly any parameter I am using for tracking of customers.
As far as code, I have not come up with anything, due to the fact of the complexity of FPC and not having a dev site currently setup to test on.
Any leads as to where I can add this exception would be helpful, thanks!
EDIT: I would like to add that I am working with the Enterprise Edition. And using the Redis for cache.
I developed my own extension on the fix.
In short the get parameters are used in the cache ID. So in order to bypass this, I created an extension that changed the following:
/app/code/core/Enterprise/PageCache/Model/Processor/Category.php
Two functions where changed
protected function _getQueryParams()
AND
public function getPageIdWithoutApp(Enterprise_PageCache_Model_Processor $processor)
/app/code/core/Enterprise/PageCache/Model/Processor/Default.php
One function was changed
public function getPageIdWithoutApp(Enterprise_PageCache_Model_Processor $processor)
Once changed, it no longer created the cache ID with my specified tracking parameters.
example:
public function getPageIdWithoutApp(Enterprise_PageCache_Model_Processor $processor)
{
$queryParams = $_GET;
ksort($queryParams);
/**
* unset known tracking codes
*/
unset($queryParams["trk_msg"]);
unset($queryParams["trk_contact"]);
unset($queryParams["utm_source"]);
unset($queryParams["utm_medium"]);
unset($queryParams["utm_term"]);
unset($queryParams["utm_campaign"]);
unset($queryParams["utm_content"]);
/** End Edit */
$queryParamsHash = md5(serialize($queryParams));
return $processor->getRequestId() . '_' . $queryParamsHash;
}
I want to extend Ion Auth to only allow certain email addresses to register.
I'm fairly sure I could hack this together and get something working, but as a newbie to codeigniter and ion auth I wish to find out if there is a "proper way" to be doing what I need?
For instance can I "extend" ion auth (so I can update ion auth core files without writing over my changes?).
I noticed there are also hooks including this one (in the register function):
$this->ci->ion_auth_model->trigger_events('pre_account_creation');
Where do these resolve and can I use this one in order to intercept registrations from email addresses which don't match a list of those I wish to register?
If so, how would I do it? I would need access to the $email variable from the register() function.
Or is it just a case of altering the base code from ion auth and not updating it in the future?
Thanks for any help you can give me. Don't worry about the email bit, I'm capable of working out whether an email address matches the required email domains, I'm more interested in what is the best way to go about extending the library.

EDIT: Hi Ben, thanks for your answer, and thanks for taking the time to have a look at my issue. Unfortunately this hasn't helped.
I guess what you're trying to do there is add a little bit to the sql query a "where in" clause? I guess that the where in bit is incorrect as there isn't a column name.
Also, at this point I can't modify the sql query satisfactorily to produce the required output. e.g. I can add a hook to a function which is literally $this->db->where('1=1') and this outputs this sql in the next query:
SELECT COUNT(*) AS `numrows` FROM (`users`) WHERE `1=1` AND `email` = 'rawr#rawr.com'
The AND email = 'rawr#rawr.com' bit will always still return no rows. It should be OR email = 'rawr#rawr.com', but without editing the Ion Auth core code then I won't be able to change this.
I am starting to suspect (from the last couple of hours of tinkering) that I may have to edit the ion auth core in order to achieve this.
Check out this example: https://gist.github.com/2881995
In the end I just wrote a little form_verification callback function which I put in the auth controller of ion_auth which checked through a list of allowed domains. :)
When you validate your form in the auth controller you add a callback:
$this->form_validation->set_rules('email', 'Email Address', required|callback_validate_email');
You create a method in the controller called validate_email:
function validate_email() {
if (strpos($this->input->post('email'), '#mycompany.com') === false) {
$this->form_validation->set_message('validate_email', 'Not official company email address.');
return false;
} else return true;
}
This will cause the creation of the user to fail, since all rules must pass. You also provide an error message. Just make sure to have this line on the form view side:
echo validation_errors();
