The Authentication Library 1.0.6

[eluser]Nicholai[/eluser]
I read the guide, watched the screencast and perused the forum, but was unable to find some simple examples of usage that use the core auth functions without the dashboard. Here is a code sample that seems to work for me so far; I'm not very advanced but hopefully it will help someone else get off the ground with this great library as well!

Controller:

Code:

class Login extends Application {

    function Login()
    {
        parent::Application();
    }
    
    function index()
    {
        $username = $this->input->post('username');

        if (!logged_in())
        {        
            if (isset($username) && $username != '')
            {
                 $this->auth->login('tasks');            
            }
            else
            {
                $data['page_title'] = 'Please log in';
                $this->load->view('login', $data);
            }
        }
        
        else
        {
            redirect('tasks');
        }
    }

}

View:

Code:

<?php echo form_open('login');?>

        <p>
            <label for="username"><span>Username:</span></label>
            &lt;input type="text" name="username" id="username" maxlength="50" class="loginitem" size="40" /&gt;
            <span id="userError" class="error"></span>
        </p>

        <p>
            <label for="password"><span>Password</span></label>
            &lt;input type="password" name="password" id="password" maxlength="100" class="loginitem" size="40" /&gt;
            <span id="passError" class="error"></span>
        </p>

        <p>
            &lt;?php echo form_submit('login', 'Log In', 'id="login" class="submitbutton"');?&gt;
        </p>

    &lt;?php echo form_close();?&gt;
