How do I retrieve a uri segment in a hook? - El Forum - 08-09-2010
[eluser]Salvatore Formisano[/eluser]
As per title,
since my other detailed post isn't being very popular.. ( http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/163604/ )
I guess I'll split the questions I have in order to accomplish what I'm trying to do
In order to retrieve a uri segment in a controller normally all I have to do is
$this->uri->segment(1)
to get the first uri segment.
How do I do it from a hook tough?

Tried
Code:
$CI =& get_instance();
echo $CI->uri->segment(1);How do I retrieve a uri segment in a hook? - El Forum - 08-09-2010

If your hook is pre-controller, before the Controller (and with it the CI_Base) has been instantiated, the get_instance() won't work.
In that case you could try:
Code:
load_class('uri')->segment(1); // CI 1.7.2
load_class('uri', 'core')->segment(1); // CI 2.0 - needs the second parameter if the URI lib wasn't loaded yetHow do I retrieve a uri segment in a hook? - El Forum - 08-09-2010

doesn't seem to be working (I receive a blank page)

Set error_reporting( E_ALL ); in your main index and if that doesn't give you the error add ini_set('display_errors', 'On'); just below it.

done, this is what I get
Code:
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class CI_URI in /Users/macuser/Sites/sitename/system/libraries/URI.php on line 29(I changed macuser and sitename for privacy, I obviously have the right stuff setup
)

Even this alone fails (just deleted the rest to make sure the mistake is here:
Code:
<?
function pick_language() {
require_once(APPPATH.'/config/language.php');
session_start();
$x=load_class('uri')->segment(1);
define('CURRENT_LANGUAGE', $x);
}
?>and in case this can be useful, here's the hook declaration:
Code:
$hook['pre_system'] = array(
'class' => '',
'function' => 'pick_language',
'filename' => 'pick_language.php',
'filepath' => 'hooks'
);How do I retrieve a uri segment in a hook? - El Forum - 08-09-2010

Weird, it seems the load_class() function doesn't know the class was already loaded and tries to a second time when already loaded. Which causes your error.
It might be an upper/lowercase issue:
Code:
load_class('URI')->segment(1);Or you could try something like this (because of the error I'm pretty sure it's already loaded):
Code:
$libs = is_loaded();
$libs['uri']->segment(1); // keys in this one are always lowercaseHow do I retrieve a uri segment in a hook? - El Forum - 08-09-2010

Heh.. it gets even funnier
Code:
<?
function pick_language() {
require_once(APPPATH.'/config/language.php');
session_start();
$libs = is_loaded();
$x=$libs['uri']->segment(1); // keys in this one are always lowercase
define('CURRENT_LANGUAGE', $x);
}
?>returns
Code:

not sure if you noticed.. could this have anything to do with the fact that this hook is pre_system?
