How to protect a route if using shield ? - kikloo - 12-09-2022
Hi,
I'm new to CI4. I'm trying to make a simple website with admin backend and just installed shield.
How can I protect the /admin route using shield ?
It seems shield is also new and much documentation is not available.
Can anyone please guide / help ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
When I do the following:
---
$routes->get('admin', ' App\Controllers\Admin\Admin::index', ['filter' => 'admin-auth']);
---
I get error:
---
CodeIgniter\Filters\Exceptions\FilterException #3
admin-auth filter must have a matching alias defined.
---
Any help ?
Thanks.

What is admin-auth?!
Shield currently has six filters, session, tokens, chained , auth-rates, permission and group.
You can use it as follows:
PHP Code:
$routes->get('/admin', 'Admin\Admin::index' ,['filter' => 'session']);
I edited this post, added two new filters permission and group in the development branch. Also, spelling mistake sessions was corrected.
