Yii Framework get user data

Question

How can I get currently online user data with all the parameters from the database? Right now I get it's ID by using this:

echo Yii::$app->user->getId();

Can I reach other data somehow or do I have to create a function which gets all the information by the user ID?

Answer 1

You can access to all the identity values in this way

this for username

Yii::$app->user->identity->username

check for your User models for others attributes

(and your User model of course)
