codeigniter and subdomains

[eluser]emperius[/eluser]
I have web-site which should be spread to sub-domains

sub1.site.com
sub2.site.com

is that possible to do something like this whitout mod_rewrite in codeigniter?

I assume your talking about virtual domains? IE user1.domain.com user2.domain.com

Yes, you will defininitely need htaccess if that is the case.

Though it could simply be taken care of by routing rules.

I am sorry but I don't think I understand. From what I know, I don't think subdomains would affect installations of codeigniter. Unless of course I don't really understand :p

You can surely achieve it by making a small modification in you server DNS settings. You just have to add a new cname record with the following data *.site.com which would redirect all subdomains to you main domain and then you can edit the route file to achieve whatever you want. I can give u an example of what I did with it.

Code:

switch ($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']) {
    case 'category1.domain.com': $route['default_controller'] = "subdomaincat"; break;
    case 'category2.domain.com': $route['default_controller'] = "subdomaincat"; break;
    case 'category3.domain.com': $route['default_controller'] = "subdomaincat"; break;
    case 'category4.domain.com': $route['default_controller'] = "subdomaincat"; break;
    case 'category5.domain.com': $route['default_controller'] = "subdomaincat"; break;
    case 'category6.domain.com': $route['default_controller'] = "subdomaincat"; break;
    case 'category7.domain.com': $route['default_controller'] = "subdomaincat"; break;
    case 'category8.domain.com': $route['default_controller'] = "subdomaincat"; break;
    case 'category9.domain.com': $route['default_controller'] = "subdomaincat"; break;
    case 'category10.domain.com': $route['default_controller'] = "subdomaincat"; break;
    case 'category11.domain.com': $route['default_controller'] = "subdomaincat"; break;
    default: $route['default_controller'] = "front"; break;
}

$route['scaffolding_trigger'] = "";

if($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] == "www.domain.com" || $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] == "domain.com")
{

// Routes for domain.com
$route['homesort/([^/]+)/([^/]+)'] = "homesort/index/$1/$2";

$route['search/([^/]+)'] = "front/search/$1";

$route['sort/([^/]+)'] = "front/subdomaincategory/sort/$1/";
$route['([0-9]+)'] = "front/subdomaincategory/page/$1/";

$route['([^/]+)/([^/]+)\.html'] = "front/content/$2/";

$route['([^/]+)/([0-9]+)'] = "front/category/$1/page/$2/";
$route['([^/]+)'] = "front/category/$1/";
$route['([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([0-9]+)'] = "front/category/$1/$2/page/$3/";
$route['([^/]+)/([^/]+)'] = "front/category/$1/$2/";
$route['([^/]+)/sort/([^/]+)'] = "front/category/$1/sort/$2/";
}
else
{    
// Routes for sub.domain.com
$route['sort/([^/]+)'] = "subdomaincat/subdomaincategory/sort/$1/";
$route['([0-9]+)'] = "subdomaincat/subdomaincategory/page/$1/";
$route['sort/([^/]+)'] = "subdomaincat/subdomaincategory/sort/$1/";
$route['([0-9]+)'] = "subdomaincat/subdomaincategory/page/$1/";
$route['([^/]+)/([0-9]+)'] = "subdomaincat/category/$1/page/$2/";
$route['([^/]+)'] = "subdomaincat/category/$1/";
$route['([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([0-9]+)'] = "subdomaincat/category/$1/$2/page/$3/";
$route['([^/]+)/([^/]+)'] = "subdomaincat/category/$1/$2/";
$route['([^/]+)/sort/([^/]+)'] = "subdomaincat/category/$1/sort/$2/";    
}
