you’ll be using pure PHP in your +View files. To minimize the PHP code in these files, and to make it +easier to identify the code blocks it is recommended that you use PHPs +alternative syntax for control structures and short tag echo statements. +If you are not familiar with this syntax, it allows you to eliminate the +braces from your code, and eliminate “echo” statements.</p> +<div class="section" id="automatic-short-tag-support"> +<h2>Automatic Short Tag Support<a class="headerlink" href="#automatic-short-tag-support" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> +<div class="admonition note"> +<p class="first admonition-title">Note</p> +<p class="last">If you find that the syntax described in this page does not +work on your server it might be that “short tags” are disabled in your +PHP ini file.

build error reporting into your applications using +the functions described below. In addition, it has an error logging +class that permits error and debugging messages to be saved as text +files.</p> +<div class="admonition note"> +<p class="first admonition-title">Note</p> +<p class="last">By default, CodeIgniter displays all PHP errors. You might +wish to change this behavior once your development is complete. You’ll +find the error_reporting() function located at the top of your main +index.php file. Disabling error reporting will NOT prevent log files +from being written if there are errors.</p> +</div> +<p>Unlike most systems in CodeIgniter, the error functions are simple +procedural interfaces that are available globally throughout the +application. This approach permits error messages to get triggered +without having to worry about class/function scoping.</p> +<p>CodeIgniter also returns a status code whenever a portion of the core +calls <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">exit()</span></code>. This exit status code is separate from the HTTP status +code, and serves as a notice to other processes that may be watching of +whether the script completed successfully, or if not, what kind of +problem it encountered that caused it to abort. These values are +defined in <em>application/config/constants.php</em>. While exit status codes +are most useful in CLI settings, returning the proper code helps server +software keep track of your scripts and the health of your application.</p> +<p>The following functions let you generate errors:</p> +<dl class="function"> +<dt id="show_error"> +<code class="descname">show_error</code><span class="sig-paren">(</span><em>$message</em>, <em>$status_code</em>, <em>$heading = 'An Error Was Encountered'</em><span class="sig-paren">)</span><a class="headerlink" href="#show_error" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt> +<dd><table class="docutils field-list" frame="void" rules="none"> +<col class="field-name" /> +<col class="field-body" /> +<tbody valign="top"> +<tr class="field-odd field"><th class="field-name">Parameters:</th><td class="field-body"><ul class="first simple"> +<li><strong>$message</strong> (<em>mixed</em>) – Error message</li> +<li><strong>$status_code</strong> (<em>int</em>) – HTTP Response status code</li> +<li><strong>$heading</strong> (<em>string</em>) – Error page heading</li> +</ul> +</td> +</tr> +<tr class="field-even field"><th class="field-name">Return type:</th><td class="field-body"><p class="first last">void</p> +</td> +</tr> +</tbody> +</table> +<p>This function will display the error message supplied to it using +the error template appropriate to your execution:</p> +<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nx">application</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="nx">views</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="nx">errors</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="nx">html</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="nx">error_general</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="nx">php</span> +</pre></div> +</div> +<p>or:</p> +<blockquote> +<div>application/views/errors/cli/error_general.php</div></blockquote> +<p>The optional parameter <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$status_code</span></code> determines what HTTP status +code should be sent with the error.

name suggests, help you with tasks. Each helper file is +simply a collection of functions in a particular category. There are <strong>URL +Helpers</strong>, that assist in creating links, there are Form Helpers that help +you create form elements, <strong>Text Helpers</strong> perform various text formatting +routines, <strong>Cookie Helpers</strong> set and read cookies, File Helpers help you +deal with files, etc.</p> +<p>Unlike most other systems in CodeIgniter, Helpers are not written in an +Object Oriented format. They are simple, procedural functions. Each +helper function performs one specific task, with no dependence on other +functions.</p> +<p>CodeIgniter does not load Helper Files by default, so the first step in +using a Helper is to load it. Once loaded, it becomes globally available +in your <a class="reference internal" href="controllers.html"><span class="doc">controller</span></a> and +<a class="reference internal" href="views.html"><span class="doc">views</span></a>.</p> +<p>Helpers are typically stored in your <strong>system/helpers</strong>, or +<strong>application/helpers directory</strong>. CodeIgniter will look first in your +<strong>application/helpers directory</strong>. If the directory does not exist or the +specified helper is not located there CI will instead look in your +global <em>system/helpers/</em> directory.</p> +<div class="section" id="loading-a-helper"> +<h2>Loading a Helper<a class="headerlink" href="#loading-a-helper" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> +<p>Loading a helper file is quite simple using the following method:</p> +<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">load</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">helper</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">'name'</span><span class="p">);</span> +</pre></div> +</div> +<p>Where <strong>name</strong> is the file name of the helper, without the .php file +extension or the “helper” part.</p> +<p>For example, to load the <strong>URL Helper</strong> file, which is named +<strong>url_helper.php</strong>, you would do this:</p> +<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">load</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">helper</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">'url'</span><span class="p">);</span> +</pre></div> +</div> +<p>A helper can be loaded anywhere within your controller methods (or +even within your View files, although that’s not a good practice), as +long as you load it before you use it.

When +CodeIgniter runs it follows a specific execution process, diagramed in +the <a class="reference internal" href="../overview/appflow.html"><span class="doc">Application Flow</span></a> page. There may be +instances, however, where you’d like to cause some action to take place +at a particular stage in the execution process.

Here is an example of what such a +model class might look like:</p> +<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="k">class</span> <span class="nc">Blog_model</span> <span class="k">extends</span> <span class="nx">CI_Model</span> <span class="p">{</span> + + <span class="k">public</span> <span class="nv">$title</span><span class="p">;</span> + <span class="k">public</span> <span class="nv">$content</span><span class="p">;</span> + <span class="k">public</span> <span class="nv">$date</span><span class="p">;</span> + + <span class="k">public</span> <span class="k">function</span> <span class="nf">get_last_ten_entries</span><span class="p">()</span> + <span class="p">{</span> + <span class="nv">$query</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">db</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">get</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">'entries'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="mi">10</span><span class="p">);</span> + <span class="k">return</span> <span class="nv">$query</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">result</span><span class="p">();</span> + <span class="p">}</span> + + <span class="k">public</span> <span class="k">function</span> <span class="nf">insert_entry</span><span class="p">()</span> + <span class="p">{</span> + <span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">title</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="nv">$_POST</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">'title'</span><span class="p">];</span> <span class="c1">// please read the below note</span> + <span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">content</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="nv">$_POST</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">'content'</span><span class="p">];</span> + <span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">date</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="nb">time</span><span class="p">();</span> + + <span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">db</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">insert</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">'entries'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="nv">$this</span><span class="p">);</span> + <span class="p">}</span> + + <span class="k">public</span> <span class="k">function</span> <span class="nf">update_entry</span><span class="p">()</span> + <span class="p">{</span> + <span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">title</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="nv">$_POST</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">'title'</span><span class="p">];</span> + <span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">content</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="nv">$_POST</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">'content'</span><span class="p">];</span> + <span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">date</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="nb">time</span><span class="p">();</span> + + <span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">db</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">update</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">'entries'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="nv">$this</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="k">array</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">'id'</span> <span class="o">=></span> <span class="nv">$_POST</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">'id'</span><span class="p">]));</span> + <span class="p">}</span> + +<span class="p">}</span> +</pre></div> +</div> +<div class="admonition note"> +<p class="first admonition-title">Note</p> +<p class="last">The methods in the above example use the <a class="reference internal" href="../database/query_builder.html"><span class="doc">Query Builder</span></a> database methods.</p> +</div> +<div class="admonition note"> +<p class="first admonition-title">Note</p> +<p class="last">For the sake of simplicity in this example we’re using <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$_POST</span></code> +directly.

Really. Do <strong>hashing</strong>, +not <em>encoding</em>.</p> +<p>Encoding, and encryption too, are two-way processes. Passwords are +secrets that must only be known to their owner, and thus must work +only in one direction. Hashing does that - there’s <em>no</em> un-hashing or +de-hashing, but there is decoding and decryption.</p> +</li> +<li><p class="first">DO NOT use weak or broken hashing algorithms like MD5 or SHA1.</p> +<p>These algorithms are old, proven to be flawed, and not designed for +password hashing in the first place.</p> +<p>Also, DON’T invent your own algorithms.</p> +<p>Only use strong password hashing algorithms like BCrypt, which is used +in PHP’s own <a class="reference external" href="http://php.net/password">Password Hashing</a> functions.</p> +<p>Please use them, even if you’re not running PHP 5.5+, CodeIgniter +provides them for you.</p> +</li> +<li><p class="first">DO NOT ever display or send a password in plain-text format!</p> +<p>Even to the password’s owner, if you need a “Forgotten password” +feature, just randomly generate a new, one-time (this is also important) +password and send that instead.</p> +</li> +<li><p class="first">DO NOT put unnecessary limits on your users’ passwords.</p> +<p>If you’re using a hashing algorithm other than BCrypt (which has a limit +of 72 characters), you should set a relatively high limit on password +lengths in order to mitigate DoS attacks - say, 1024 characters.</p> +<p>Other than that however, there’s no point in forcing a rule that a +password can only be up to a number of characters, or that it can’t +contain a certain set of special characters.</p> +<p>Not only does this <strong>reduce</strong> security instead of improving it, but +there’s literally no reason to do it.
