Currently, you can access the PHP user object from smarty templates, but if you need access the username/userid from javascript you need to jump through hoops (like putting them in a smarty template or an endpoint that returns them.)
This adds a
user
object of the form{username: string, id: number}
to the loris helper object so that you can access the basics from javascript asloris.user.username
orloris.user.id
when needed.
