How to catch an id from sfUser?

Question

I\'m working with symfony 1.4 & i use sfDoctrineGuardPlugin as a tool for authentifications.

I want to catch the Id of user in order te store it in my table.

Answer 1

if the user is authenticated, yes, you can use:

// inside an action
$id = $this->getUser()->getGuardUser()->getId();

// inside a template
$id = $sf_user->getGuardUser()->getId();

If the user is not authenticated, it'll throw an error.
