http-auth

A Code Igniter Library for HTTP Authentication.

Installation

To install, download and install Splint from https://splint.cynobit.com/downloads/splint and then run the below from your Code Igniter project root.

splint install francis94c/http-auth

Loading

From anywhere you can access the CI instance

$params = array(
  "auth" => array (
    "username" => "hashed_password"
  ),
  "bearer" => "Bearer Name",
  "denied_message" => "Access Denied!"
);
$this->load->splint("francis94c/http-auth", "+HTTPAuth", $params, "http_auth");

OR Alternatively load with the below steps.

• create a file http_auth_config.php in your application/config folder.
• Add the below contents into the file created above.

<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');

$config["http_auth_config"] = array(
  "auth" => array (
    "username" => "hashed_password"
  ),
  "bearer" => "Bearer Name",
  "denied_message" => "Access Denied!"
)
?>

• Then load with the single line of code.

$this->load->package("francis94c/http-auth");

Usage

After loading, simply place the below line of code where you want authentication.

$this->http_auth->authenticate();

The above is most preferable at a Controller's Constructor.

This will output your $denied_message if authentication fails or allow the rest of the Controller to run if successful.
