Downlad

https://github.com/mtkocak/authake

For install instructions and feedback, please go to Authake home page: http://www.mtkocak.net/?p=333

Install

1. Unzip the plugin to your app/Plugin folder with the name Authake. Case is important, lowercase folder name does not work.

2. You have to have in your bootstrap.php

    CakePlugin::loadAll();
    //or
    CakePlugin::load('Authake');
   

3. You can create schema from plugin using command to console terminal when you are in your app folder:

    Console/cake schema create -plugin Authake
   

   Or Alternatively you can add the Authake/db/authake_clean.sql to your database.

4. Add this to your config/database.php to make authake work.

   The idea behind this is that it would be possible to have 1 Authake instalation which handle multiple apps.

    var $authake = array(
    'datasource' => 'Database/Mysql',
    'persistent' => false,
    'host' => 'localhost',
    'login' => ", //username for the db
    'password' => ", //password for the db
    'database' => 'authake', //or any other where you have imported the authake.sql file
    'prefix' => ",
    );
   

5. Create AppController.php in you'r app's Controller folder first.

   Change it's contents like this: UPDATED: No need debug_kit anymore

   auth(); } private function auth(){ Configure::write('Authake.useDefaultLayout', true); $this->Authake->beforeFilter($this); } } ?>

6. Use username: admin password: admin to login
