How to access the session in an extension/event?

aley

I'm trying to access the session in my extension, but can't find any documentation on it.

Let' assume this simple code

use Flarum\Event\PostWillBeSaved;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Events\Dispatcher;

return function (Dispatcher $events) {
    $events->listen(PostWillBeSaved::class, function (PostWillBeSaved $event) {
        // How do I get the session here?
    });
};

aley there's no session, you can get the actor from the event.

luceos I store custom data into the session, which I get from the request object, during login. Now on the PostWillBeSaved event, I need to access this data.

May you answer another question aswell? How to get the post tags from $event->post?

Is the a docu somewhere to read these things up?

aley I can't a sweet for the first part, but for the tags you can do $event->post->tags()

aley @datitisev has made an extensive flarum documentation ?, it can be accessed at https://datitisev.github.io/FlarumAPIDocs/

Kyrne Unfortunately there is no such method on $event->post, I get an error Call to undefined method, but $post->discussion->tags->all() is working for me.

The other problem persist. Can't find a way to access the user session, or I'm doing someting wrong conceptionally.

Frink Thanks for the hint, but this is not really a docu, it's more a list of classes and methods.

Very hard to build something for flarum without knowing how to access stuff.
