I am creating a form which would take inputs as a email id, username and password but this has to be inserted into Moodle Mysql database and when i login to moodle with the same username and passworde, it should allow login. I understand that moodle uses bcrypt with salt but i m not sure how to write this php code which would be alternate to moo…

login.php

<?php
// Moodle configuration file inclusion - adjust the path as needed
require('/path/to/your/moodle/config.php');

// User data
$email = 'example@example.com'; // Assume this comes from your form
$username = 'newusername'; // Assume this comes from your form
$password = 'newpassword'; // Assume this comes from your form, needs to be hashed

// Hash the password using bcrypt, compatible with Moodle's password hashing
$hashedPassword = password_hash($password, PASSWORD_BCRYPT);

// Prepare the new user data
$usernew = new stdClass();
$usernew->auth = 'manual'; // Assuming manual authentication
$usernew->confirmed = 1; // Active account
$usernew->mnethostid = $CFG->mnet_localhost_id; // Main site
$usernew->email = $email;
$usernew->username = $username;
$usernew->password = $hashedPassword; // Use the hashed password
$usernew->firstname = 'Firstname'; // You may want to collect this in your form
$usernew->lastname = 'Lastname'; // You may want to collect this in your form
$usernew->timecreated = time();
$usernew->timemodified = time();

// Insert user into the database
$userId = $DB->insert_record('user', $usernew);

echo "User created with ID: ".$userId;
?>
