How to create CRUD in Codeigniter

I have already covered login form and registration form in my previous posts. In this tutorial I am going to cover how to create CRUD in codeigniter. I am using previous example and code for this post. If you want to look my previous posts on codeigniter then visit below links.

I am going to explain create, read, update and delete data from the users table. This post is going to be bit long. Now let’s start.


Create CRUD in codeigniter:

Create Database:

CREATE TABLE `users` (
`id` INT(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`first_name` VARCHAR(255) NULL DEFAULT NULL,
`last_name` VARCHAR(255) NULL DEFAULT NULL,
`email` VARCHAR(255) NULL DEFAULT NULL,
`phone` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
`password` VARCHAR(255) NULL DEFAULT NULL,
`created` DATETIME NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
)
COLLATE='latin1_swedish_ci'
ENGINE=InnoDB
AUTO_INCREMENT=8
 

Controllers:

First I will create controller file as Dashboard.php. Remember Controller file must be start with capital letter and class name should match with controller file name.

Dashboard.php

<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
 
class Dashboard extends CI_Controller {
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
$this->load->model('user_model');
$this->load->library('form_validation');
}
function index()
{
$data['getUsers'] = $this->user_model->getAllUsers();
$this->load->view('dashboard', $data);
}
 
function addUser()
{
//add user code will be here
}
function view()
{
//view user info code will be here
}
function editUser()
{
//edit user code will be here
}
function deleteUser()
{
//delete user code will be here
}
}
 

In the construct function I have loaded the user model by calling $this->load->model('user_model') and form validation library. I will discuss about user model later in this post. In index function I got all users in $data[‘getUsers’] by calling getAllUsers() function of user_model. After that I loaded dashboard view and $data array to the dashboard view. addUser(), editUser() and deleteUser() will use later for CRUD.

Views:

Dashboard.php

<div class="col-md-12 text-center" style="margin:10px 0px ">
<h2>Dashboard</h2>
</div>
<div class="col-md-12" style="margin:10px 0px ">
<a class = "btn btn-primary" href="<?php echo base_url()."index.php/dashboard/addUser"?>">Add User</a>
</div>
<div class="col-md-12">
<?php
 
if($this->session->flashdata('successMsg'))
{
echo '<div class="alert alert-success">';
echo $this->session->flashdata('successMsg');
echo '</div>';
}
if($this->session->flashdata('errorMsg'))
{
echo '<div class="alert alert-info">';
echo $this->session->flashdata('errorMsg');
echo '</div>';
}
if(!empty($getUsers))
{
echo '<table class="table">';
echo '<tr>';
echo '<th>First Name</th>';
echo '<th>Last Name</th>';
echo '<th>Email</th>';
echo '<th>Action</th>';
echo '</tr>';
foreach($getUsers as $user)
{
echo '<tr>';
echo "<td>".$user['first_name']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$user['last_name']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$user['email']."</td>";
echo '<td><a href="'.base_url().'index.php/dashboard/view/'.$user["id"].'" class="btn btn-primary">View</a> <a class = "btn btn-primary" href="'.base_url().'index.php/dashboard/editUser/'.$user["id"].'">Edit</a> <a class = "btn btn-primary" href="'.base_url().'index.php/dashboard/deleteUser/'.$user["id"].'">Delete</a></td>';
echo '</tr>';
}
echo '</table>';
}
?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
 

First of all I use not empty condition on $getUsers array that we passed in controller. Then I print each row of $getUsers by using foreach loop. I have also created Add User, View, Edit, And Delete button to add, edit delete user respectively. After above writing above code my code will look like this.

  <button class="btn btn-primary" type="submit"> Submit</button>

</div>
</div>
</div>
 

In the above code validation_errors() is used to print validation errors and $this->session->flashdata('successMsg') is used to print success message. $errorMsg will also print error message if record will not save. After that there is add user form with 5 fields.

Delete Operation in Codeingiter Crud:

So I have wrote Create, Read and Update operations in CRUD. Now it’s time to create last operation in CRUD that is Delete. I don’t need to create any view on delete operation. I just need to delete a record on clicking delete button in dashboard and show successful message if record would delete successfully.

redirect('dashboard');
}
else
{
$this->session->set_flashdata('errorMsg', 'Unable to delete user');
redirect('dashboard');
}
}
 

Models:

User_model.php

User_model.php file has necessary functions which will communicate to database.
