Redirect with input - orionstar - 01-03-2017
I think we need something similar like in Laravel:
https://laravel.com/docs/5.3/responses#redirecting-with-flashed-session-data
https://laravel.com/api/5.2/Illuminate/Http/RedirectResponse.html
Why we need this? To show the form in one action method and in the other one handle the data processing...
For CodeIgniter 3 I use a similar but very simple solution to achieve the same results, see below...
I put the following code to the MY_Controller constructor:
PHP Code:
$_previous_data = $this->session->flashdata('_previous_data');
if($_previous_data)
{
$_POST = $_previous_data['post'];
$_GET = $_previous_data['get'];
}
...and I created the following helper method for the redirect:
PHP Code:
if( ! function_exists('redirect_with_input'))
{
function redirect_with_input($uri = '', $method = 'auto', $code = NULL)
{
$CI =& get_instance();
$data = array(
'post' => $CI->input->post(),
'get' => $CI->input->get()
);
$CI->load->driver('session');
$CI->session->set_flashdata('_previous_data', $data);
redirect($uri, $method, $code);
}
}
I am not saying we should use something similar, it's just here to show an implementation... Laravel's approach is much cleaner & have more options...

Yes, something similar to this is on my radar, but I keep forgetting to work on it among all of the other parts. Thanks for the nudge and for sharing your code.

Great work! I was looking for such a function a few month back for a project. Good to see its getting integrated
