I am using Yii2 advanced structure, but I need a "Second" backend that is going to control the tenant users.
I just copy the backend folder and change the configuration for the cookies and the User Model. I don't know if this will be enough.
I just want some advice on how to do it, if someone already did it.
Thanks !
I have done something similar some time ago. Besides what you have done I have also changed the User component too to log in a different kind of user.
You should also add more folders in the tests so you can test that part too.
Anyway that should be enough yes.

I'm fairly new to programming and I'm studying App development with Ionic and using Laravel as a backend. So far I have created a simple system with sign up and login of users and creation of "events" by the users. I have made the relation between the users and events as the app will need to know which user created an event, and the participants of such event.
Now, I was wondering about adding a messaging system between users and obviously push notifications and stuff and came across Firebase. I've read about it before, but haven't really used it so I'm not quite familiar with it.
My question is, is it possible or even recommended that I use both MySQL and Firebase in my app or should I just stick to one? I've read about Websockets if I stick with Laravel, but on the other hand, Firebase also handles user login and registration in case I want to move to Firebase completely. I'm having some technical questions, such as:
if I'm using both MySQL and Firebase in my app, how would I connect the user that was registered with an ID and a username stored in my MySQL to Firebase, which will need to know which user has sent a message to another one? Can that be done, or recommended?
Should I just stick with just one for my use case (MySQL or Firebase, instead of both)?
I have researched about use cases similar to mine and couldn't find anything, if you guys have come across such situation, could you recommend any materials? It would be much appreciated!
Thanks a lot everyone! I hope my questions were clear, if you need more details, please let me know!
If you decide to use Firebase, it comes with a built-in authentication system so you wouldn't need a MySQL database or your own server.
If you decide to use both anyways (if you have a good reason to do so), you would have to handle all the logic for copying the authenticated user id over to firebase (and validating access) on your own server. If you don't need to do that just keep it simple: Firebase or your own server + MySQL.
I have an existing Laravel application with various functions, controllers, authentication, middleware, CRUD, admin functionality, and more. I want to be able to deploy this application onto some hosting and have others view all of the pages, but I do not want them to be able to edit or create values in the database. So, for example, while I have CRUD for all of the resources, I want them to be able to read all of the resources but not edit, create, or delete anything. I also want them to not have to register/login, but I know how to fix that.
I have tried LOCK TABLE [tablename] READ in MySQL, but that does not seem to have done anything. Currently, my only other idea would be to go through and set ifs checking if the user is authenticated to save database interactions, but this would be a little laborious.
Is there any feasible or simpler way of doing this? Thanks for any help.
I'm new in this subject so this might be a silly question for most of you. I have a simple server which several users will access. If any of them change a CSS property of an element, the others should be able to see the change in real time.
Should I use something like node.js to perform this? How do I save the changes the users do?
The page would look something like this: http://stom89.dyndns.org/
Thanks!
I guess what you want to change in your CSS / html , are states. Like if a lamp is on/off? Then you need to save each state in a mySQL DB and just grab the data for each user. If you want it to look like realtime for online users, then use js(ajax) to sync data regularly.
Alternative way without a DB would be with files.
If you don't wanna use mysql for this, you can use files. I suggest using ini files. For more on how to read/write ini files, you can visit this question. It's super simple and you'll be able to have each variable in a nifty array.
What you need: A bit of PHP, a little bit of jQuery (or js), understanding of GET variables
I suggest you create 3 files.
index.php :
Your main page which is the client. Pulls info using get
variables. You can use jQuery.get() for this.
getstate.php :
This is the file which will read the ini file and give you back the states for each device. Read them with jQuery.get() from index.php .
savestate.php:
This is the file which you'll send the new states to from index.php Example request: http://address.goes.here/savestate.php?bedroomlight=1&garagelight=0
Whats even more interesting is that ini files can be written/read easily by many programming languages so you can manipulate the data using your Raspberry Pi easily. (say someone turns of a light, a script polling state could change the ini file)
I think you would need to use a sql database and have a javascript to detect changes and update through AJAX. That's my best idea.
I have been messing with this subject for sometime if I completely understand your question. I would suggest looking at python, ruby or node.js though I could not say which is the easiest to learn for you though I would suggest python and a comet server which could be ape and simply have the server push the updates to the users that are already on the site.
Edit:
Suggestions for polling :: jQuery
http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.get/ for standard data retrieval which is about all you will need.
I'm doing an ASP.Net MVC website, but I need some help figuring out how to go about a problem I'm having. The problem is when the user is logged in (it gets the information from a MySQL database), I need it to save all the user's information and the company's info. But I need to access it from multiple Views and Models. So what is the correct way to use do something like that?
You can store that information in Global.asx so that it will be available anywhere in the project.
But the only thing is that you need to mention the properties in Global.asx before execution.
I have a requirement to let users edit each others entries. So in case of bad entries, I need to be able to go back to an earlier version.
What is the best way to implement this in the data layer? Should I have like a triage table? And once the admin approves the edit, the triage version gets copied and put into the main entries table?
How would you guys do this?
Thanks,
Alex
This answer may work for you.

I know you're thinking in terms of a database, but you may want to look in to using Mercurial or Git as the back-end to your application. It won't work like a database, but you'll have full version control.
