Creating a CodeIgniter login form based on the Ion Auth library

I am still contributing to CodeIgniter.

I would like to create a login form for my codeigniter application based on the Ion Auth library .

I installed the library as instructed and it works fine when navigating auth / login, auth / create_user, auth / logout, etc.

However, I don't need a separate login page, I would like to embed the form on my home page. When I use the sample provided as a login on my home page, I get the following errors:

  • Message: Undefined variable: message
  • Message: Undefined variable: identity
  • Message: Undefined variable: password

I understand that the above variables are not defined in my view, I just cannot figure out where and how they should be defined and why do they work fine in the provided sample that came with the library?

config / routes.php

$route['login/check'] = 'auth/my_front_end_login';

view



<?php echo form_open('login/check'); ?>

<fieldset>
    <legend>login Credentials<legend>

    <label for="identity">&lowast; Identity</label>
    <input type="text" name="identity" id="identity" value="<?php echo set_value('identity');?>" />
    <?php echo form_error('identity');?>

    <label for="password">&lowast; Password</label>
    <input type="password" name="password" id="password" value="<?php echo set_value('password');?>" />
    <?php echo form_error('password');?>

    <label for="message">&lowast; Message</label>
    <input type="text" name="message" id="message" value="<?php echo set_value('message');?>" />
    <?php echo form_error('message');?>
</fieldset>

<?php echo form_close();?>

Controllers / Authentication

public function my_front_end_login(){
   if($this->form_validation->run('login_frontend')) // uses config/form_validation.php
   {
       //validation passed, now attempt login via ION_AUTH
       //open ION_Auth library file and see what the login method requests in its params. 
      if(ION_Auth::login($params)) // Im not familiar with it
      {
         //login success
      }
      else
      {
         //login failure
      }
   }
   else
   {
       $this->index();
   }
}

Do you load the desired libraries in the controller related to the view where you want to insert the login form like "form_validation" if you are using form_input (like $ message) ... anyway you can avoid this by setting $ var is_set.
