Log in User (Craft 3)

Question

How can I log in a user in Craft 3 and redirect to a url?

This doesn't work:

$username = $user->username;
$userCode = $user->teamCode;
Craft::$app->user->login($username, $userCode);

Thanks!

Documentation for this can be found in Craft's class reference.

# Login as user, by id
Craft::$app->getUser()->loginByUserId($user->id);

# Redirect
return Craft::$app->getResponse()->redirect($url)->send();

Or, if you're in a controller:

return $this->redirect($url);
