How to create login form in Codeigniter

In my previous post we create registration form in codeigniter. In this tutorial I am going to create login form in codeigniter. I am taking the example of previous post and login using previous post data. In the download link you will get codeigniter having both registration and login code. Now let’s start.

<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
 
class Login extends CI_Controller {
 
function __construct(){
parent::__construct();
$this->load->model('login_model');
}
public function index()
{
if(isset($this->session->login) && !empty($this->session->login)){
redirect('ois', 'refresh');
}
$this->load->helper('form');
$this->load->library('form_validation');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('username', 'User Name', 'required');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('password', 'Password', 'required');
if($this->form_validation->run() == false){
$this->load->view('login');
}
else{
$user = $this->input->post('username');
$pass = $this->input->post('password');
$user = $this->login_model->checkLogin($user, $pass);
if(is_array($user)){
$this->session->set_userdata($user);
redirect('ois', 'refresh');
}else{
$data['errorMessage'] = "Wrong User or Password";
$this->load->view('login',$data);
}
}
}
public function logout(){
$this->session->sess_destroy();
redirect('login','refresh');
}
function createPassword(){
$password_string = 'testing123';
$options = array(
'salt' => mcrypt_create_iv(22, MCRYPT_DEV_URANDOM),
'cost' => 12,
  );
  $password_hash = password_hash($password_string, PASSWORD_BCRYPT, $options);
  /*
if (password_verify($password_string, $password_hash)) {
echo 'Correct password';
} else {
echo 'inCorrect password';
}
*/
}
}
 

Create Model:

class User_model extends CI_Model {
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
function checkDuplicate($email)
{
$this->db->select('email');
$this->db->from('users');
$this->db->like('email', $email);
return $this->db->count_all_results();
}
function insertUser($data)
{
if($this->db->insert('users', $data))
{
return  $this->db->insert_id();
}
else
{
return false;
}
}
function userExist($email)
{
$this->db->select('*');
$this->db->like('email', $email);
$qry = $this->db->get('users');
$rs = $qry->result_array();
return $rs[0];
}
 
}
