Haven't tested your code, but maybe you want to take a look at masquerade_switch_user and masquerade_switch_back: http://drupalcode.org/project/masquerade.git/blob/HEAD:/masquerade.module. And if the impersonation is only for the given request, maybe just global $user; $previous = $user; $user = user_load($uid); // Do your stuff. $user = $previous; would work.

Some of my scheduled task needs to run as the user who triggered them (not anonymous neither admin); so I thought of writing two actions: - One to impersonate a user, which will receive uid as an argument. - Another to undo the impersonate. All the called actions should be between them.
Anybody see any fault in this idea or the actions code?
Thanks.
function wu_action_impersonate($uid) { global $user; if (!array_key_exists('wu_action_impersonate', $_SESSION)) { $_SESSION['wu_action_impersonate'] = array(); } array_push($_SESSION['wu_action_impersonate'], $user); session_save_session(FALSE); $user = user_load($uid); user_load($uid); }
function wu_action_unimpersonate() { global $user; if (array_key_exists('wu_action_impersonate', $_SESSION)) { if (!empty($_SESSION['wu_action_impersonate'])) { $user = array_pop($_SESSION['wu_action_impersonate']); } if (empty($_SESSION['wu_action_impersonate'])) { unset($_SESSION['wu_action_impersonate']); } } session_save_session(TRUE); }
