CI4: not getting session data in another controller - bhuvnesh.maheta - 05-10-2020
Dear Sir,
In Auth Controller, I have set session data and redirect to Homepage controller but I am unable to get session data in Homepage controller. Please find below code.
In Auth.php (Controller)
$mySess = session();
$mySess->set($data);
// $this->session->set($data);
return redirect()->to(site_url("homepage"));
In Homepage (Controller)
<?php
namespace App\Controllers;
use CodeIgniter\Controller;
class Homepage extends BaseController
{
public function index() {
$mySess = session();
$sessionArray = $mySess->get();
print_r($sessionArray);
exit();
}
//--------------------------------------------------------------------
}
as a result I am getting blank page.
Please help.

Once you load the session it is loaded for all controllers etc;
Just use.
PHP Code:
// using the helper
$value = session()->get('value');
I load the session library in the Base controller then it is global to all.
PHP Code:
<?php
namespace App\Controllers;
use CodeIgniter\Config\Services;
use CodeIgniter\Controller;
use CodeIgniter\HTTP\CLIRequest;
use CodeIgniter\HTTP\IncomingRequest;
use CodeIgniter\HTTP\RequestInterface;
use CodeIgniter\HTTP\ResponseInterface;
use Psr\Log\LoggerInterface;
/**
* Class BaseController
*
* BaseController provides a convenient place for loading components
* and performing functions that are needed by all your controllers.
* Extend this class in any new controllers:
* class Home extends BaseController
*
* For security be sure to declare any new methods as protected or private.
*/
class BaseController extends Controller
{
/**
* Instance of the main Request object.
*
* @var IncomingRequest|CLIRequest
*/
protected $request;
/**
* An array of helpers to be loaded automatically upon
* class instantiation. These helpers will be available
* to all other controllers that extend BaseController.
*
* @var array
*/
protected $helpers = [
'debug',
];
/**
* @var \CodeIgniter\Session\Session
*/
protected $session;
/**
* Constructor.
*
* @param RequestInterface $request
* @param ResponseInterface $response
* @param LoggerInterface $logger
*/
public function initController(RequestInterface $request, ResponseInterface $response, LoggerInterface $logger)
{
// Do Not Edit This Line
parent::initController($request, $response, $logger);
//--------------------------------------------------------------------
// Preload any models, libraries, etc, here.
//--------------------------------------------------------------------
// E.g.: $this->session = \Config\Services::session();
// Ensure that the session is started and running
if (session_status() == PHP_SESSION_NONE)
{
$this->session = Services::session();
}
}
}
I then use the helper with chaining to do what I need but you can call it using
PHP Code:
$this-session->get('item');
