Yii2: Cannot use BlameableBehavior when AR is accessed by a console app

[jovanialferez]

I am getting this error 'Calling unknown method: yiiconsoleApplication::getSession()' when i run a console app that updates an AR that has a BlameableBehavior.

TIA.

That's expected since there's no session in console.

@samdark does it mean i cannot update that AR via a console app? thanks!

[jovanialferez]

i mean i can't use BlameableBehavior then, right? thanks!

you have to set the user attribute of the behavior yourself because yii can not detect the current user from Yii::$app->user there.

[jovanialferez]

any way i can detect if it is from console app? thanks.

[cebe]

you can check Yii::$app instanceof \yii\console\Application
