Custom Login Portlet

[Develloper Missing, geändert vor 11 Jahren.]

Hi, I have created a portlet which take some inputs from user and send data on other server. Now I want to provide login option to user in same portlet. I mean there will be a check box and if user click on that check box, two input boxes will visible for email and password. I want to match email and password in my portlet but
I can't found any method in UserLocalService to retrieve user by email and password. I also tried to encrypt user's password but encrypt method in portal-impl


Thanks in advance.

You should not validate email/password yourself.

Instead you should defer to the Liferay services to handle that.

Take a look at the default Liferay sign on portlet to see how to invoke Liferay to handle the login.

In order to authenticate refer the method UserLocalServiceUtil.authenticateForBasic(long companyId, java.lang.String authType, java.lang.String login, java.lang.String password)

Company id---> themeDisplay.getCompanyId().
authType----> emailAddress,userId,screenName (Use any one according to your requirement).
login- that you entered on the textbox
password- that you entered on the password textbox,

Hope it will be useful.
