Example of a login with Sparse

Sparse Login Example

// This code would be on any PHP page handling the login form 

// Create a User suitable for logging in
$loggingInUser = new \Sparse\User(array('username'=>$_POST['username'],'password'=>$_POST['password']));

// Make actual login API call
$loggingInUser->logIn();

// This will be true if it worked
if($loggingInUser->authenticated()){

  // Do something special

}else{

  $error = "Could not login. Please try again.";
}

// After logging in, subsequent page loads can do this...

$user = \Sparse\User::current();

if($user->authenticated()){

  // Still logged in!
}else{

  // show login
}
