Configuration

1) If you use this extension without base template, then you need execute migration by the following command:

php yii migrate/up --migrationPath=@vendor/yii2mod/yii2-user/migrations

2) You need to configure the params section in your project configuration:

'params' => [
   'user.passwordResetTokenExpire' => 3600
]

3) Your need to create the UserModel class that be extends of UserModel and configure the property identityClass for user component in your project configuration, for example:

'user' => [
    'identityClass' => 'yii2mod\user\models\UserModel',
    // for update last login date for user, you can call the `afterLogin` event as follows
    'on afterLogin' => function ($event) {
        $event->identity->updateLastLogin();
    }
],

4) For sending emails you need to configure the mailer component in the configuration of your project.

5) If you don't have the passwordResetToken.php template file in the mail folder of your project, then you need to create it, for example:

<?php

use yii\helpers\Html;

/* @var $this yii\web\View */
/* @var $user */

$resetLink = Yii::$app->urlManager->createAbsoluteUrl(['site/password-reset', 'token' => $user->password_reset_token]);
?>

Hello <?php echo Html::encode($user->username) ?>,

Follow the link below to reset your password:

<?php echo Html::a(Html::encode($resetLink), $resetLink) ?>

This template used for password reset email.

6) Add to SiteController (or configure via $route param in urlManager):

    /**
     * @return array
     */
    public function actions()
    {
        return [
            'login' => [
                'class' => 'yii2mod\user\actions\LoginAction'
            ],
            'logout' => [
                'class' => 'yii2mod\user\actions\LogoutAction'
            ],
            'signup' => [
                'class' => 'yii2mod\user\actions\SignupAction'
            ],
            'request-password-reset' => [
                'class' => 'yii2mod\user\actions\RequestPasswordResetAction'
            ],
            'password-reset' => [
                'class' => 'yii2mod\user\actions\PasswordResetAction'
            ],
        ];
    }

You can then access to this actions through the following URL:

1. http://localhost/site/login
2. http://localhost/site/logout
3. http://localhost/site/signup
4. http://localhost/site/request-password-reset
5. http://localhost/site/password-reset

7) Also some actions send flash messages, so you should use an AlertWidget to render flash messages on your site.
