Well guys, after long… here we go!
CURRENT RELEASED VERSION: FreakAuth_light_1.1
I released FreakAuth_light for all of you to enjoy (hopefully) and testing.
- official website & downloads
I also included a kinda installation-checkin in the release, so that you can make sure everything is set ok for FreakAuth_light to work, and work safely!
This release will be suitable for not extremely complex applications, where you will need to distinguish among:
- superadmin (full control of the API)
- admin (you can let him do what you want)
- registered users
- guests
FreakAuth_light includes:
——————————————————————
FRONTEND
——————————————————————
- login/logout
- user registration
- forgotten password
- change password
- simple ACL with custom roles/permissions
——————————————————————-
ADMINISTRATION BACKEND
——————————————————————-
- list/detail/add/edit/del admins
- list(paginated)/detail/add/edit/del users
- an example on how to implement the backend with other controllers (i.e. blog posts ect.)
- a kinda advanced CRUD that let’s you have custome user profile fields + validation rules in backend
——————————————————————-
EXTRAS
——————————————————————-
=> the applications uses nice dynamic flash messages!!
Let’s say that FreakAuth_light is much better in terms of performance than Auth that just for a login runs 9 queries!
And, more important, more secure!
Test it and post your feedbacks on the official forum!
