I use HybridAuth, integrate Codeigniter 3.06 without issue.

My personal project is called Dictpedia is currently using Codeigniter 3, welcome.

I took some time to implement a feature that allows you to skip Community Auth's regular checks for authentication and force somebody to be logged in. This should allow you to use another service for your user's authentication, but tell Community Auth / CodeIgniter that they are logged in.

Whatever service you use to authenticate externally, you will need to get the username or email address once the user is deemed to be logged in. Once you have that, you can do something like this:

PHP Code:

// Add the username or email address of the user you want logged in:
$username_or_email_address = '';

if( ! empty( $username_or_email_address ) )
{
    $auth_model = $this->authentication->auth_model;

    // Get normal authentication data using username or email address
    if( $auth_data = $this->{$auth_model}->get_auth_data( $username_or_email_address ) )
    {
        /**
         * If redirect param exists, user redirected there.
         * This is entirely optional, and can be removed if 
         * no redirect is desired.
         */
        $_GET['redirect'] = 'somewhere';
        $this->authentication->redirect_after_login();

        // Set auth related session / cookies
        $this->authentication->maintain_state( $auth_data );
    }
}
else
{
    echo 'Example requires that you set a username or email address.';
}
