CodeIgniter Upload and “You did not select a file to upload”

Posted in Articles on August 22nd, 2011 by admin – Be the first to comment

This problem with error message You did not select a file to upload is originally caused by the fact that you are trying to upload multiple files but do_upload() without parameters is used in the controlled. If this is the case, try specifying the name of your input, in the following way.

if you are using:

$this->upload->do_upload();

replace it by:

$this->upload->do_upload("input_field_name");

Then, try again.

CodeIgniter Reactor is now just “CodeIgniter”

Posted in Articles on August 22nd, 2011 by admin – Be the first to comment

There were news recently from Ellislab and one of the most important changes was the migration of CodeIgniter source code from BitBucket to GitHub.

All the source code was moved to GitHub.
CodeIgniter 2.0.3 was released.
“Core” is no longer being publicly maintained and CodeIgniter “Reactor” is now known simply as CodeIgniter. This is aimed to simplify CodeIgniter development.
The issue tracker was also migrated to GitHub and now it is officially hosted there.

For sure this should not have been a trivial decision but we are sure that EllisLab will handle all this successfully and this decision is something that we all agree.

Tips downloading CodeIgniter 2.0

Posted in Articles on June 12th, 2011 by admin – Be the first to comment

As you may know, there are two different branches of CodeIgniter 2.0 – The official EllisLab and the community driven branch of CodeIgniter, named Codeigniter Core, secondly the community driven branch named CodeIgniter Reactor.

Download CodeIgniter 2.0 Core

It is available on Mercurial (Hg) Server but you can easily get the files from CodeIgniter Download page.

Download CodeIgniter 2.0 Reactor

Community-driven branch of CodeIgniter 2.0.x Reactor is available on Bitbucket and a mirror on Github here:
https://github.com/philsturgeon/codeigniter-reactor
(~ 2.2Mb)

What version of CodeIgniter is recommended to download?

Seems there are plenty of reasons why you may consider CodeIgniter Reactor to be used in your projects. There are many discussions about what version to use for production environment as well. It is up to you what version to use, some may prefer Core, and others may prefer Reactor. The good thing of Reactor is that it is more active than the Core version and many libraries are being coded for Reactor in mind. And seems Reactor is pretty stable considering it is actively developed and with more updates than the Core version that is mainly aimed to be used for EllisLab products like Expression Engine.

For example you can download the tag of CodeIgniter Reactor 2.0.2 from Bitbucket here:
CodeIgniter Tag version 2.0.2
https://bitbucket.org/ellislab/codeigniter-reactor/src/521076012037

What’s new in CodeIgniter 2.0 and cool features. Danny Herran posted this article explaining what’s new in 2.0

Chris Monnat also posted a first look to Reactor that deserves a read.

You can find differences between CodeIgniter Core and Reactor, as explained by EllisLab here.

Upgrading from 1.7.x to 2.0

If you are planning to migrate from old codebase 1.7.x to 2.0 maybe it is a good time to do this now. Here you can find more information upgrading to CI 2.0: http://philsturgeon.co.uk/news/2010/05/upgrading-to-codeigniter-2.0

Or you can refer to the official CodeIgniter site about how to migrate from 1.7.2 to 2.0: http://codeigniter.com/user_guide/installation/upgrade_200.html

Basically the upgrade steps include:

Update your CI Files
Convert plugins to Helpers
Update stored encrypted data
Update class extensions to use CI_ prefix.
Update parent constructors to use parent::__construct()
Update user guide with new version

Libraries for CodeIgniter 2.0

At the moment, all new libraries are being coded for 2.0 but you can also find that most popular libraries used for previous versions of CodeIgniter are also supporting new version 2.0. Here are some interesting posts that you can take a look:

IonAuth and Reactor CodeIgniter 2.0

HTML Purifier and CodeIgniter

Posted in Articles on May 31st, 2011 by admin – Be the first to comment

HTML Purifier is a standards-compliant HTML filter library written in PHP. HTML Purifier will not only remove all malicious code with a thoroughly audited, secure yet permissive whitelist, it will also make sure your documents are standards compliant.

Air Purifier HTML CodeIgniter

There are a number of open-source HTML filtering solutions out there on the web already. When it comes to HTML, attention to detail is key. Does it perform its filtering off a whitelist rather than an out-of-date blacklist? Does it filter every attribute in the document? Does it actually understand HTML?

Andy Mathijs have ported HTML Purifier to CodeIgniter so you can take advantage of this wonderful library in your CodeIgniter applications. See here.

For more information about HTML Purifier, check this demo.

CodeIgniter 2.0, Authentication and Twitter Updates

Posted in Articles on November 23rd, 2010 by admin – Be the first to comment

Let’s see some articles I found elsewhere that I found interesting to use in my next projects.

Todish commented about CodeIgniter 2.0 with Bucket, he finally recommended Bucket as the template engine for CodeIgniter.
A2M Account authentication & Authorization seems to be really useful, especially if you want to create a login module integrated with OAuth, including Twitter, Facebook and Google. See a live example at Elartedeprogramar.
NetTuts explains How to Update Twitter Status with CodeIgniter
