User Interface Model - El Forum - 08-25-2009

My first contribution to the Ignited Code forum!
Here is a model I built which I've been using for all of my websites which have a table of users. You can specify the names of the table and columns using a config file. Every time you access the model functions (update, modify, etc) you can specify which columns you want to work with.
Here's an example of the implementation:
Code:
$new_user_id = $this->rm_user->create('username' => 'tlhunter', 'password' => 'pass');
$this->rm_user->set($new_user_id, 'username', 'monkey');
$this->rm_user->set($new_user_id, array('username'=>'banana', 'password'=>'will_be_encrypted'));
$user_id = $this->rm_user->auth('tlhunter', 'password');
if ($user_id) {
$this->session->set_userdata($this->rm_user->get($user_id, array('username', 'email')));
} else {
#invalid login
}And here is the URL to the full thing:

Good work.
Try not using $this->config->item() like you would use an array, it is actually a method call (as you know) and is very slow.
Grab the entire config array once only and store it locally.

Thanks for the heads up, didn't realize the overhead doing it this way.
How do you return an array of all the config items? Didn't see it when I looked at the user guide.

Force config to use an index when loading your config array from file.
Code:
$this->config->load('settings', TRUE);Then a single call will retrieve the entire array.
Code:
$settings = $this->config->item('settings');
