Autoload a model and run a function?

[eluser]chefnelone[/eluser]
I'm already trying with hooks using post_controller_constructoras the Hook Point.

But I get this message:

Code:

A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: Notice

Message: Undefined property: GetData_Hooks::$db

Filename: hooks/getData_hooks.php

Line Number: 14

and line 14 is a simple query:

Code:

$query = $this->db->query("SELECT * FROM texts");

It seems, to me, that the database library is not loaded at the time the hook is executed?
Should I use a differebt Hook Point than post_controller_constructor?

Maybe using MY_Controller is a better idea, but I'd like to learn how to use hooks as well.

A hook is not a part of the CI superobject, just like a library is not.
So you have to use get_instance() to get the object.

Code:

$CI = get_instance();
$CI-db->query("SELECT * FROM texts");

It works!
