Sessions are one of the most important part for any web applications, as it helps to maintain user’s “state” and to track their activity when they visit your website.
Here we have use CodeIgniter’s session class that will maintain and help to store session information for each user.
To use this class you need to first initialize or load the session library of CodeIgniter in your controller constructors or you can also go for $autoload in config file, so that it can be auto-loaded by the system.
To load session library manually use below code –
Syntax:
$this->load->library('session');
Note: The Session class in CodeIgniter does not use native PHP sessions, as It generates its own session data.
Following are some syntax that are mainly used for session data:-
To retrieve session data:
$this->session->userdata('item'); // Where item is the array index like session id
To add custom session data:
$this->session->set_userdata($array); // $array is an associative array of your new data
To retrieve all session data:
$this->session->all_userdata() // Read all session values
To remove all session data:
$this->session->unset_userdata('some_name'); // Removing values from session
Controller : session_tutorial.php
copy the below code in your controller.
<?php
Class Session_Tutorial extends CI_Controller {
public function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
// Load form helper library
$this->load->helper('form');
// Load session library
$this->load->library('session');
// Load validation library
$this->load->library('form_validation');
}
// Show session demo page
public function session_demo_page_show() {
$this->load->view('session_view');
}
// Set values in session
public function set_session_value() {
// Check input validation
$this->form_validation->set_rules('session_value', 'Session Value', 'trim|required|xss_clean');
if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE) {
$this->load->view('session_view');
} else {
// Create session array
$sess_array = array(
'set_value' => $this->input->post('session_value')
);
// Add user value in session
$this->session->set_userdata('session_data', $sess_array);
$data['message_display'] = 'Value Successfully Set in Session';
$this->load->view('session_view', $data);
}
}
// Read session values
public function read_session_value() {
// Read all session values
$set_data = $this->session->all_userdata();
if (isset($set_data['session_data']) && $set_data['session_data']['set_value'] != NULL) {
$data['read_set_value'] = 'Set Value : ' . $set_data['session_data']['set_value'];
} else {
$data['read_set_value'] = 'Please Set Session Value First !';
}
$this->load->view('session_view', $data);
}
// Unset set values from session
public function unset_session_value() {
$sess_array = array(
'set_value' => ''
);
// Removing values from session
$this->session->unset_userdata('session_data', $sess_array);
$data['message_display'] = 'Successfully Unset Session Set Value';
$this->load->view('session_view', $data);
}
