I have a custom authentication service and in ZF2 I accessed this as follows:
Application/view/layout/layout.phtml
$authenticationService = $this->getHelperPluginManager()
->getServiceLocator()
->get('AuthenticationService');
$currentIdentity = $authenticationService->getIdentity();
Now the Zend\ServiceManager#getServiceLocator()
is deprecated.
How to get a service available in a view script (or concrete in this case in the layout) in ZF3?
The solution is to assign a global view variable in the
onBootstrap(...)
:Another (perhaps an even better/cleaner) solution is to use a
ViewHelper
. See also here.
