Display current logged-in user

I'm using Symfony and sfDoctrineGuardPlugin.

How do I display, in a template, the username of the current user ?

I've tried $this->getUser()->getUsername(), but all I get is the error : "Call to undefined method sfPHPView::getUser."

I'm trying to displa开发者_运维问答y the username in a layout.php, not in a particular module/template

In a template (view), use $sf_user:

For the username:

echo $sf_user->getUsername();

For the id:

echo $sf_user->getAttribute('user_id', null, 'sfGuardSecurityUser');

Or, in an action (controller), you can do what you're doing in your question:

$this->username = $this->getUser()->getUsername();

and then $username will be available in your view template.

See template shortcuts in the Symfony docs for other view variable shortcuts.

Try the following. One of them may work.

$this->getSfGuardUser()
$this->getGuardUser()
$this->getUser()->getSfGuardUser()
$this->getUser()->getGuardUser()
