Addition to Auth Library tutorial

Okay, I’ve decided to write a little addition to my previous tutorial. I finished the last tutorial, my Auth library for CI, with a note:
When you use this library, you’ll have to manually adjust the standard redirects from the library. I just set them to /admin and /admin/login but this could/will be different for you offcourse. A better way would be to add an initialize() method that gets a config array passed to set these URI’s in class vars.

I have adjusted my library a little so you can initialize it, setting redirects as you please. Even more, it now automatically uses any auth.php config files too. This was really easy and I thank xwero for helping me figure it out, over at the CodeIgniter community.

Auth library for CodeIgniter tutorial.

Hello and welcome to my first tutorial in ages. Today, I’ll be explaining to you how you can create a simple login (or ‘auth’, short for authorization) library for CodeIgniter.

What functionality will our library have? Users accessing restricted pages will see a login screen if they’re not logged in, once logged in they’ll be redirected to the page where they were, or simply see a standard page. That’s about it for this tutorial, though adding things like user groups, restrictions etc… could all be added later. Maybe stuff for a later tutorial?

I’ll copy/paste bits of code from my own (simple) auth library and then explain what they do. So at the end of this tutorial you will have a working library.
