WHMCS 8 - Custom Server Module Hook - CurrentUser Class not Found

[astewart]

Hey guys,
I have a custom Server Module that has been working with for the last month or so and everything was working find in 7.10.2, until I upgraded to the latest and greatest, version.

I know I just need to make a few changes here but I can't find any relevant Developer documentation for this issue specifically because to me it looks relatively trivial.

Error I'm getting is:
 

Error: Class 'WHMCS\Utility\Environment\CurrentUser' not found in /var/www/html/modules/servers/MyServerMod/hooks.php:15
Stack trace:

#9 /var/www/html/clientarea.php(0): Laminas\HttpHandlerRunner\Emitter\SapiEmitter->emit(Object(WHMCS\ClientArea))
#10 {main

The main point here being this in my code and I need to find what the new function is to call CurrentUser for this session.
Here is the Snippet from the:
 

$ip     = WHMCS\Utility\Environment\CurrentUser::getIP();

Does anyone know what the right Function call is here in WHMCS 8 or can you point me in the right direction to the documentation?

Thanks guys!

Thank you very much Brian! Obviously I didn't look hard enough but that is what I was looking for.

You need a 'That was easy' button on your desk Brian. 🙂

Thanks again!

Hmmm, 

So I'm now getting:

BadMethodCallException: Call to undefined method WHMCS\User\Client::getIP() in /var/www/html/vendor/illuminate/support/Traits/ForwardsCalls.php:50

After updating it to:

$ip     = WHMCS\User\Client::getIP();

So the undefined method here being the ::getIP I'm assuming.

I'm not using this function in the right manner now it seems.

You would use something like:

use WHMCS\Authentication\CurrentUser;


$currentUser = new CurrentUser;
$user = $currentUser->user();

if ($user) {
    $ipAddress = $user->currentIp();
}

This combines the documentation for CurrentUser on https://developers.whmcs.com/advanced/authentication/ and the User model.

is ->currentIp() documented anywhere ? I couldn't see any mention of it in the class docs or the above link...

Thanks Andrew! I'll give this a go.

I'm assuming there is still some developer documentation that needs to be updated for version 8.0?

Cheers!

How would you get the IP of a non-logged in user (for use during checkout)? The above code works, but not for anonymous users.
