CodeIgniter Compatibility

This version is for CodeIgniter v3, if you need support for v4 you can find it at the v4 branch here.

The future of authentication

Simple and lightweight authentication for your CodeIgniter apps.

Ion Auth 2 dropped any backwards compatibility and made things more awesome.

Ion Auth 3, while not dropping as much backwards compatibility, made things even more awesome!

Server requirements

Ion Auth 3 needs CodeIgniter 3 and PHP 5.6. It should work on 5.4 as well, but we strongly advise you NOT to run such old versions of PHP, because of potential security and performance issues. In this case, you may need password_compat.

Documentation

Documentation is located at http://benedmunds.com/ion_auth/

Upgrading

See UPGRADING.md file.

Installation

See INSTALLING.md file.

Usage

In the package you will find example usage code in the controllers and views folders. The example code isn't the most beautiful code you'll ever see but it'll show you how to use the library and it's nice and generic so it doesn't require a MY_controller or anything else.

Default Login

Username: admin@admin.com Password: password

Important

It is highly recommended that you use encrypted database sessions for security!
