A new release of your favorite CodeIgniter 3 book is out. (O.K. It’s the only general one that I’m aware of, but that still makes it true, right!?)
This release adds a chapter on working with files that provides a quick overview of the many higher-level tools available to work with files since it’s easy to gloss over some of them as we learn the framework. It shows a simple way to do automated backups of your database, compress the results, and FTP it to a remote server for safekeeping. We also cover how to easily work with multiple file upload scripts.
