Should my validate_credentials and logout functions be inside of the index function? If not and everything else looks fine what is a good suggestion? I'm trying to learn some better practices. Any ideas?
<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Usermanagement extends CI_Controller {
public function index()
{
//Config Defaults Start
$msgBoxMsgs = array();//msgType = dl, info, warn, note, msg
$cssPageAddons = '';//If you have extra CSS for this view append it here
$jsPageAddons = '';//If you have extra JS for this view append it here
$metaAddons = '';//Sometimes there is a need for additional Meta Data such in the case of Facebook addon's
$siteTitle = '';//alter only if you need something other than the default for this view.
//Config Defaults Start
//examples of how to use the message box system (css not included).
//$msgBoxMsgs[] = array('msgType' => 'dl', 'theMsg' => 'This is a Blank Message Box...');
/**********************************************************Your Coding Logic Here, Start*/
$bodyContent = "login";//which view file
$bodyType = "full";//type of template
function validate_credentials()
{
$this->load->model('usersmodel');
$query = $this->usersmodel->validate();
if ($query)
{
$data = array(
'username' => $this->input->post('username'),
'is_logged_in' => true
);
$this->session->set_userdata($data);
redirect('cpanel');
}
else
{
$this->index();
}
}
function logout()
{
$this->session->sess_destroy();
$this->index();
}
/***********************************************************Your Coding Logic Here, End*/
//Double checks if any default variables have been changed, Start.
//If msgBoxMsgs array has anything in it, if so displays it in view, else does nothing.
if(count($msgBoxMsgs) !== 0)
{
$msgBoxes = $this->msgboxes->buildMsgBoxesOutput(array('display' => 'show', 'msgs' =>$msgBoxMsgs));
}
else
{
$msgBoxes = array('display' => 'none');
}
if($siteTitle == '')
{
$siteTitle = $this->metatags->SiteTitle(); //reads
}
//Double checks if any default variables have been changed, End.
$this->data['msgBoxes'] = $msgBoxes;
$this->data['cssPageAddons'] = $cssPageAddons;//if there is any additional CSS to add from above Variable this will send it to the view.
$this->data['jsPageAddons'] = $jsPageAddons;//if there is any addictional JS to add from the above variable this will send it to the view.
$this->data['metaAddons'] = $metaAddons;//if there is any addictional meta data to add from the above variable this will send it to the view.
$this->data['pageMetaTags'] = $this->metatags->MetaTags();//defaults can be changed via models/metatags.php
$this->data['siteTitle'] = $siteTitle;//defaults can be changed via models/metatags.php
$this->data['bodyType'] = $bodyType;
$this->data['bodyContent'] = $bodyContent;
$this->load->view('usermanagement/index', $this->data);
}
}
/* End of file usermanagement.php */
/* Location: ./application/controllers/usermanagement.php */
EDIT : Is there anything else that would be a good idea to do or add to the validate_credentials function even?
