<liferay-portlet-app>

      

       <portlet>

              <portlet-name>register</portlet-name>

              <icon>/icon.png</icon>

              <instanceable>false</instanceable>

        <private-session-attributes>false</private-session-attributes>

              <header-portlet-css>/css/main.css</header-portlet-css>

              <footer-portlet-javascript>

                     /js/main.js

              </footer-portlet-javascript>

              <css-class-wrapper>register-portlet</css-class-wrapper>

       </portlet>

       <role-mapper>

              <role-name>administrator</role-name>

              <role-link>Administrator</role-link>

       </role-mapper>

       <role-mapper>

              <role-name>guest</role-name>

              <role-link>Guest</role-link>

       </role-mapper>

       <role-mapper>

              <role-name>power-user</role-name>

              <role-link>Power User</role-link>

       </role-mapper>

       <role-mapper>

              <role-name>user</role-name>

              <role-link>User</role-link>

       </role-mapper>

</liferay-portlet-app>

Step 4: Add below code in portlet view.jsp, path: docroot/html/register/view.jsp

<%@include file="init.jsp"%>

<%

String userExistMessage = Validator.isNotNull((String)request.getAttribute("USER_EXIST"))  ? (String)request.getAttribute("USER_EXIST") : null;

PortletURL registerUserURL=renderResponse.createActionURL();

registerUserURL.setParameter(ActionRequest.ACTION_NAME, "registration");

%>

              <%

              if(Validator.isNotNull(userExistMessage)){

              %>

                <div Style="color:red;"><%=userExistMessage%></div>

              <%}%>

<aui:form action="<%=registerUserURL%>" method="post">

                           <aui:input  name="firstName" label="" placeholder="First Name">

                          <aui:validator name="required"/>

                          <aui:validator name="alpha"/>

                </aui:input>                          

      

                           <aui:input  name="lastName"  label="" placeholder="Last Name" >

                                   <aui:validator name="required"/>

                          <aui:validator name="alpha"/>

                         </aui:input>

      

                         <aui:input  name="email" label="" placeholder="E-mail">

                                   <aui:validator name="required"/>

                          <aui:validator name="email"/>

                </aui:input>

      

                           <aui:input type="password"  name="password"  label="" placeholder="Password">

                           <aui:validator name="required"/>

                         </aui:input>

             

                           <aui:input type="password"  name="repass" label="" placeholder="Retype-Password">

                            <aui:validator name="equalTo">'#<portlet:namespace />password'</aui:validator>

                         </aui:input>

                           <aui:button type="submit" value="Register"/>

</aui:form>

Step 5: Create one new jsp name:init.jsp  page inside docroot/html/register/init.jsp

And add below code.

<%@page import="com.liferay.portal.kernel.util.Validator"%>

<%@page import="com.liferay.portal.kernel.util.ParamUtil"%>

<%@page import="javax.portlet.ActionRequest"%>

<%@page import="javax.portlet.PortletURL"%>

<%@ taglib uri="http://alloy.liferay.com/tld/aui" prefix="aui"%>

<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/portlet_2_0" prefix="portlet" %>

<portlet:defineObjects />

Step 6: Add below code in portlet controller, in this example controller name: Regsiter.java

package com.test;

import java.io.IOException;

import javax.portlet.ActionRequest;

import javax.portlet.ActionResponse;

import javax.portlet.PortletException;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;

import com.liferay.portal.kernel.util.ParamUtil;

import com.liferay.portal.kernel.util.PortalClassLoaderUtil;

import com.liferay.portal.kernel.util.Validator;

import com.liferay.portal.kernel.util.WebKeys;

import com.liferay.portal.model.CompanyConstants;

import com.liferay.portal.model.User;

import com.liferay.portal.service.ServiceContext;

import com.liferay.portal.service.UserLocalServiceUtil;

import com.liferay.portal.theme.ThemeDisplay;

import com.liferay.portal.util.PortalUtil;

import com.liferay.util.bridges.mvc.MVCPortlet;

/**

 * Portlet implementation class Register

 */

public class Register extends MVCPortlet {

       public void registration(ActionRequest actionRequest,

                     ActionResponse actionResponse) throws IOException, PortletException, com.liferay.portal.kernel.exception.PortalException, com.liferay.portal.kernel.exception.SystemException {

              String firstName = ParamUtil.getString(actionRequest, "firstName").trim();

              String lastName = ParamUtil.getString(actionRequest, "lastName").trim();

              String email = ParamUtil.getString(actionRequest, "email").trim();

              String password = ParamUtil.getString(actionRequest, "password").trim();

              String confirmPassword = ParamUtil.getString(actionRequest, "repass");

             

              ThemeDisplay themeDisplay = (ThemeDisplay) actionRequest.getAttribute(WebKeys.THEME_DISPLAY);

             

              User user = null;

              try {

                         user =  UserLocalServiceUtil.fetchUserByEmailAddress(themeDisplay.getCompanyId(), email);

                         if(Validator.isNotNull(user)){

                            actionRequest.setAttribute("USER_EXIST", " User Exist with entered Email Address.");

                                  actionResponse.setRenderParameter("jspPage", "/html/register/view.jsp");

                         } else{

                            ServiceContext serviceContext = new ServiceContext();

                            HttpServletRequest request = PortalUtil.getHttpServletRequest(actionRequest);

                                  HttpServletResponse response = PortalUtil.getHttpServletResponse(actionResponse);

                                 

                            user = UserLocalServiceUtil.addUser(10198, themeDisplay.getCompanyId(), false, password, confirmPassword, true, null, email, 0L, "", themeDisplay.getLocale(),

                                                firstName, "", lastName, 0, 0, false, 0, 1,1970, "", null, null,null,null, false, serviceContext);

                                 

                                  ClassLoader pcl = PortalClassLoaderUtil.getClassLoader();

                             Class lClass = pcl.loadClass("com.liferay.portlet.login.util.LoginUtil");

                             java.lang.reflect.Method method = lClass.getDeclaredMethod("login", HttpServletRequest.class, HttpServletResponse.class, String.class, String.class, Boolean.TYPE, String.class);

                                 

                                  try{

                                         String portalURL = PortalUtil.getPortalURL(actionRequest);

                                         method.invoke(null, request, response, email, password, false, CompanyConstants.AUTH_TYPE_EA);

                                         actionResponse.sendRedirect(portalURL+"/web/guest/welcome");

                                  }catch(Exception e){

                                        

                                  }

                         }        

              } catch (Exception e) {

                           e.printStackTrace();

              }

       }

      

      

}

After deploying portlet.
