CodeIgniter REST服务器身份验证问题

Question

I'm using this CodeIgniter REST Server project to implement a REST API.

So far I have been able to do some basic tests calling a controller via GET, PUT, POST and DELETE with keys.

Here's an example:

POST

curl -X POST -H "X-API-KEY: mAkS2FnJcXe8Whr8SbV0M6rJWMo3yNz6jgpV2ViL" http://jeanpaulruizvallejo.com/proyectos/pruebas/ci-rest-api/RestTestController/user/ --data "id=1"

Now, I need to be able to use username and passwords. I have tried with several ways but have not been able to get it working.

I would like to get some help about how to implement a username and password authentication model working for this REST API.

Thanks in advance for the help.

My current config file for rest:

rest.php

Answer 1

if you want a user login api key gen or user sign up based system, you can set a override auth config variable in rest.php config file.

Example : I want generate an api key when a user sign up with my controller "users" and my method "signup".

I simply add :

$config['auth_override_class_method']['users']['signup'] = 'none';

in

./application/config/rest.php (see L.144)

That's all :) After this, you can generate a key in signup method and save the key in db before sending to client.

Another method should be to set a api key as token into session userdata and configure rest.php with the name of this variable.

I'm currently in the process of testing several of these methods and other implementations with codeigniter Rest.

Hope it will help you.
