How to Get User

💻 Development app dev

Hi,

I have an application that log files events and gets size and time, I need to get username who made that event, I’m using the NextCloud log OCP\ILogger
I already have in the log

{"reqId":"C5MjfvVINnVLDogO4NKs","level":1,"time":"2018-01-11T07:46:26+00:00","remoteAddr":"194.165.136.114","user":"test","app":"TracerSizeFour","method":"PUT","url":"\/remote.php\/dav\/files\/test\/New%20Text%20Document%20(2).txt","message":"File created: \"\/\/New Text Document (2).txt\"","userAgent":"Mozilla\/5.0 (Windows) mirall\/2.3.3 (build 1) (Nextcloud)","version":"12.0.4.3"}

if you notice the line "user":"test" this is the user, how to get it? it doesn’t exit in the returned array from the web hook ($params)

but I don’t know how to get the user if I wanted to forward to a different URL, so the question how to get the username who made an event, keep in mind that the logging is on administrative level so need to know a user from multiple users

Thanks

I already tried this function and gave me the exception

you can see that I’m missing the class \OCP\\\\USER where to find this class?

I changed the code to

<?php
$owner = \OC\Files\Filesystem::getOwner($params['path']);

and returned the username, actually it works on administrative level, meaning I have two users and it gets any of the users trigger an event (create, delete,…)

keep in mind that the variable $params['path'] works for create or delete, but for something have many paths like rename, you don’t have ‘path’ but rather $params[oldpath] or$params[newpath]
