Symfony 2: How do I check if a user is not logged in inside a template?
SymfonyAuthenticationTwigSymfony 2.1Symfony Problem Overview
In Symfony 2 templates (using Twig), how can I effectively check whether a user is not logged in?
I don't want to use ROLE
checks. I want a straightforward way to check if a user is not logged in.
I'm aware that comparing app.user.username
with anon
works, but that just doesn't feel right to me.
Symfony Solutions
Solution 1 - Symfony
You can check if app.user is set.
{% if app.user %}
# user is logged in
{% else %}
# user is not logged in
{% endif %}
Solution 2 - Symfony
Although the current answer answers the OP's question, I would like to add more details.
I understand the OP did not want to check roles, but I am including them so other SO users can copy and paste from this in the future. - everytime I google this, I end up here!

Check if any user logged in (regardless of role)
As answered, you can use app.user
to check if any user is logged in.
{% if app.user %}
# user is logged in (any and all users, regardless of ROLE_*)
{% elseif not app.user %}
# user is not logged in (note the `not` in the `elseif` statement)
{% endif %}
Checking authentication status
You can use the is_granted()
method to check for ROLES
, (The below are all roles assigned by symfony, You may also have you own roles (more below))
{% if is_granted('IS_AUTHENTICATED_FULLY') %}
# This user entered their credentials THIS session
{% elseif is_granted('IS_AUTHENTICATED_REMEMBERED') %}
# User logged in via a cookie (ie: Auth again before doing sensitive things)
{% elseif is_granted('IS_AUTHENTICATED_ANONYMOUSLY') %}
# This is a `guest` or anonymous user
{% endif %}
from the docs:
> IS_AUTHENTICATED_ANONYMOUSLY - automatically assigned to a user who is > in a firewall protected part of the site but who has not actually > logged in. This is only possible if anonymous access has been allowed. > > IS_AUTHENTICATED_REMEMBERED - automatically assigned to a user who was > authenticated via a remember me cookie. > > IS_AUTHENTICATED_FULLY - automatically assigned to a user that has > provided their login details during the current session.
Checking Roles
You can also use is_granted()
to check for roles.
Assuming we have 3 roles (ROLE_SUPER_ADMIN
, ROLE_ADMIN
, & ROLE_USER
)
{% if is_granted('ROLE_SUPER_ADMIN') -%}
# You're `ROLE_SUPER_ADMIN`
{% elseif is_granted('ROLE_ADMIN') -%}
# You're `ROLE_ADMIN`
{% elseif is_granted('ROLE_USER') -%}
# You're `ROLE_USER`
{% else %}
# You're a `nobody` ;P
{%- endif %}
