How to correctly handle data here with Drogon
I have an object that is passed through my controller as
User currentUser = User::ensureUserInSession(req);
data.insert("user", currentUser);
Now I want to use this in my .csp template file as for instance check if user is authenticated
<body class="<%= user.is_authenticated ? "authenticated" : "anonymous" %>">
For some reason the above line doesn't even compile.
Then even doing something like this in the .csp file [[ user.is_authenticated ]] displays nothing.
Which have pushed me to do this:
User currentUser = User::ensureUserInSession(req);
// Insert the user data into ViewData
data.insert("username", currentUser.username);
data.insert("uid", currentUser.uid);
data.insert("is_authenticated", currentUser.is_authenticated ? "true" : "false");
std::string bodyClass = currentUser.is_authenticated ? "" : "anonymous";
data.insert("body_class", bodyClass);
and in my template file:
<body class="[[ body_class ]]">
This works but I don't see this as sustainable. Obviously, I am new here and there must be a better way of doing this that I am not aware of yet. Someone point me to the right place.
