That is the right way...if you Want you can fork the repo and help me to improve the documentatio. Thanks

I've just downloaded this and will be playing around with it. So far it seems you've done a very nice job of integrating the three. The documentation could certainly be improved, but once that is done I believe you will have a very good 'base' set for web apps.

are you experiencing trouble?
i really apreciate every kind of contribution : if you would improve the docs send me a pull req.

I'll play around with it a bit.

I'm not a very experienced CI developer, but once I start to understand your framework more, I'll pitch in some documentation.

For now, I suggest explaining your view setup more.

Hello @vesparny and all CI coders.

I just got started my journey with this framework and it's great - even for newbies like me.

Although, I have a problem with integrating Tank auth library with your bootstrap pack.

I mean, I know that there's a template view for every website element like header, footer etc.

But I can't figure out how to make login form in the navbar.

I discovered that TankAuth has a following code in home controller:

Code:

if (!$this->tank_auth->is_logged_in()) {
   redirect('/auth/login/');
  } else {
   $this->data['user_id'] = $this->tank_auth->get_user_id();
   $this->data['username'] = $this->tank_auth->get_username();
   $this->data['role']  = $this->tank_auth->get_role();
  
   $this->_render('pages/home');
  }

And I already connected it with your _render method, which is awesome at the point

But, still can't put the login form inside the navbar without making crappy code

Do I have to write a method in nav_helper (like isLoggedIn) ? Or is there a better way to make it work?

Thank you in advance
Cheers

Hi Coob,

I am also a user of this extension of the CI_Controller. I have made some modifications/improvements in the past for own use. One of the modifications was integration with tank_auth in the boilerplates as default.

In nav.php you can alter the code to show a login form when the user is not logged in. You can check this with the function you mentioned above

Code:

$this->tank_auth_>is_logged_in()

. If this returns FALSE then you can show the login form, otherwise you can show the navigation links for example.

nav.php

Code:

<?php

if($this->tank_auth->is_logged_in())
{
    // show navigation links
    echo anchor(base_url(), 'Home');
    echo anchor('admin', 'Admin area');
}
else
{
    // show login form
    echo form_open();
    ....
}

Make sure that the tank_auth library is autoloaded since you will be using the library on every page of your website.

Hi,
Great work man, i'm going to start a new project based on your skeleton, but i have a question what is : $renderData?

And can you give an exemple on how to use it?

Thanks Man.
