Finally, OpenID made simple!

Hi,

RPX will send a token to the rpx/verify url and your controller will check that and from there you can then authenticate the user into your application.

you need to think of this as a second authentication method. So it follows the same principle, the only difference is that the user info comes into the rpx/verify (or whatever you want to call it) and you take it from there...

if "authentication" doesn't sound familiar have a look around for some tutorials about basic authentication with codeigniter.

I had done something like this in the controller. Take this just as a sample... far from being something usable... I was just trying out and I am still learning.

Code:

if($token = $this->input->post('token'))
            {
                $rpx_data = $this->openidrpx->AuthInfo($token);
                                
                
                $identifier = $this->openidrpx->Identifier($rpx_data);
                


                if($identifier)
                {                

                $data['page_title'] = WEBSITE_TITLE;            
                $data['login_result'] = 'LOGGED IN';

                
                $data['page'] = 'login_result'; // pass the actual view to use as a parameter                
                $this->load->view('layout',$data);

                } else {

                $data['page_title'] = WEBSITE_TITLE;            
                $data['login_result'] = 'LOGGED IN FAILURE';
                $data['page'] = 'login_result'; // pass the actual view to use as a parameter
                $this->load->view('layout',$data);
                    
                    
                }
