jQuery spservices to get current user name for sharepoint site

Hi peeps,
In this post we are going to write a script which will give us the current user loggedin name for a sharepoint site using jQuery SPServices.
Below is the script:

// add the ref of jQuery file
<script type="text/javascript" src="/style library/jquery-1.7.2.js"></script>
// add the ref of jQuery SPServices file
<script type="text/javascript" src="/style library/jquery.SPServices-0.7.0.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var currentuserName = $().SPServices.SPGetCurrentUser({
   fieldName: "Title",
   debug: false
});
</script>


Hope this helps...

jQuery SPServices to get current user sharepoint groups

In this post we are going to get information of all the sharepoint user groups in which current user belongs using SPServices.

Below is the jQuery code snippet which will do this action.

In this example we will be looping all the groups which the current user is present and adding it to the variable  loggedinUserGroup.

// add the ref of jQuery file
<script type="text/javascript" src="/style library/jquery-1.7.2.js"></script>
// add the ref of jQuery SPServices file
<script type="text/javascript" src="/style library/jquery.SPServices-0.7.0.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var loggedinUserGroup;
$(document).ready(function() {
 Getrolesforuser();
 alert(loggedinUserGroup);
});
function Getrolesforuser()
{
 loggedinUserGroup="";
 $().SPServices({ 
  operation: "GetGroupCollectionFromUser", 
        userLoginName: $().SPServices.SPGetCurrentUser(), 
        async: false, 
        completefunc: function(xData, Status)
        {
         $(xData.responseXML).find("Group").each(function()
         {
              if(loggedinUserGroup=="")
              {
                  loggedinUserGroup = $(this).attr("Name");
              }
              else
              {
                  loggedinUserGroup = loggedinUserGroup + "\n"+ $(this).attr("Name");
              }
         });
               
  }
 });
}

</script>
