How to Get User Group Names in Joomla 2.5

问题

I'm writing a Joomla 2.5 component that I had been developing in Joomla 1.7. I have been using code like this:

$user = JFactory::getUser();
$groups = $user->get('groups');

The $groups array would contain a list of ids with the group name as the index. Joomla 2.5 seems to have scrapped this functionality. I have been unable to find out how to get the group names without directly querying the database. Is there any method for getting a list of the groups a user is a member of without having to resort to querying the database?

回答1:

The code I generated below gets the names of all the groups the user is a part of and stores them in the variable $groupNames separated by line breaks:

foreach ($user->groups as $groupId => $value){
    $db = JFactory::getDbo();
    $db->setQuery(
        'SELECT `title`' .
        ' FROM `#__usergroups`' .
        ' WHERE `id` = '. (int) $groupId
    );
    $groupNames .= $db->loadResult();
    $groupNames .= '<br/>';
}
print $groupNames;

It technically queries the database but is done via the Joomla API. This is working well for me on Joomla 2.5.

Yes, this changed.

But what you should be using instead is:

JFactory::getUser()->getAuthorisedGroups();

or just getUserGroups

Real snippet:

            $user = JFactory::getUser();
            $db = JFactory::getDBO();

    $db->setQuery($db->getQuery(true)
        ->select('*')
        ->from("#__usergroups")
    );
    $groups=$db->loadRowList();

            $userGroups = $user->groups;
            $return=array();

          foreach ($groups as $key=>$g){
            if (array_key_exists($g[0],$userGroups)) array_push($return,$g[4]);
          }

          $groups=$return;

      /////printing groupnames for current user/////////////
         print_r($groups);

Here it is:

<?php

    $user =& JFactory::getUser();

    foreach ($user->groups as $key => $value){
        echo $key.'<br>';
    }

?>

This will print all the user group names to the screen. The user group names are the "keys" of the array $user->groups.
