I use in core.php for logout after 30 minutes this:
Configure::write('Session', array(
'defaults' => 'php',
'timeout' => 30, // auto logout after 30 minutes
'cookieTimeout' => 1440, // session cookie 24 hours
'autoRegenerate' => true // regenerate session
));
This work fine. And I would to display countdown message of session timeout, for example in header of page next to the logout button. Could anybody help me?
For example in default.ctp.
<body>
<div id="container">
<div id="header">
<div style="float: right;">
<?php
// display countdown of session timeout:
// You will be automatically logged off for (time to expire cookie timeout)
// Logout button
echo $this->Html->link(__('Logout'), array('controller' => 'users', 'action' => 'logout'), array('escape' => false));
?>
</div>
</div>
<div id="content">
</div>
</div>

The cookie timeout is controlled by the session. cookie_lifetime ini value and can be configured using: Configure::write('Session', [ 'defaults' => 'php', 'ini' => [ // Invalidate the cookie after 30 minutes without visiting // any page on the site.
To use defaults, simply set the 'defaults' key to the name of the default you want to use. You can then override any sub setting by declaring it in your Session config: Configure::write('Session', [ 'defaults' => 'php' ]); The above will use the built-in 'php' session configuration.
To destroy a session, use the destroy() method: $session->destroy(); Destroying a session will remove all serverside data in the session, but will not remove the session cookie.
In PHP, To get the session id, we have to use like this: session_id();
Since people are harsh on you and this is your first time here, I shall be a little bit gentle on this. I don't provide you the answer, but key pointers:
$this->Session->read('Config.time') to get the unix timestamp of when will be the session ends.moment.js is great in manipulating time, countdown etc. Check fromNow - you can use it for future too.Hope this helps ;)
