SharePoint 2013 get current user using JavaScript

Question

How to get current user name using JavaScript in Script Editor web part?

Answer 1

U can use javascript to achive that like this:

function loadConstants() {

    this.clientContext = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
    this.clientContext = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
    this.oWeb = clientContext.get_web();
    currentUser = this.oWeb.get_currentUser();  
    this.clientContext.load(currentUser);
      completefunc:this.clientContext.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this,this.onQuerySucceeded), Function.createDelegate(this,this.onQueryFailed));


}

//U must set a timeout to recivie the exactly user u want:

function onQuerySucceeded(sender, args) {

    window.setTimeout("ttt();",1000);
}
function onQueryFailed(sender, args) {

    console.log(args.get_message());
}

//By using a proper timeout, u can get current user :

function ttt(){ 

    var clientContext = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
    var groupCollection = clientContext.get_web().get_siteGroups();
    visitorsGroup = groupCollection.getByName('OLAP Portal Members');

    t=this.currentUser .get_loginName().toLowerCase();

    console.log ('this.currentUser .get_loginName() : '+ t);      

}
