Accessing CI session data outside of CI - happyape - 09-28-2018
I have a folder in my
Code:
Codeigniter4/public/oldprojectwhere i have created a test.php so that I can access it using
PHP Code:
myci4site.com/oldproject/test.php
In test.php
PHP Code:
$path = realpath(dirname(dirname(dirname(__FILE__))).'/writable/session');
//ini_set('session.save_path',$path);
session_save_path ($path);
session_id( $_COOKIE['ci4session'] );
session_start();
print_r($_SESSION);
There is session data in the session which I can print in my Home controller e.g. myci4site.com/home/test which just contains
PHP Code:
$sess = session()->get();
echo '<pre>';print_r($sess);
What else I need to do to be able to get session data in my test.php?
I need to access this data for maintaining old code for the time being.
Thanks.

If you review CI’s session class you will see that it is much more complex in configuring the session. You cannot simply access the session data without duplicating much of what the session class is doing.

Hmm - I don't want to duplicate code etc and was hoping for an easier/quick fix.

Depending on what handler/driver you will be using, using CI4's session outside of CI may not be that hard to do, as long as your are using PSR-4 autoloading. Looks like you just new up a driver (injecting config), and inject it into the session class constructor. There's probably a little more to it, but you shouldn't have to reinvent the wheel.

Yes!. Thank you, I'll give it a go.
