CodeIgniter Authentication Library 2011

Question

I am looking for a flexible, easy customized, Userlevel access and secure Authentication library that I can quickly get started with.

I was looking at Stackoverflow and read about a few Authentication libraries but these posts were posted in 2010.

What Authentication library out there should I use? Why?

Answer 1

2012 Update:

Personally I've used Ion Auth, Tank Auth, and a couple of other authentication libraries. But honestly most of them are no longer compatible for the latest release of CodeIgniter, and I'd need to spend more time debugging the libraries than to write a new one myself.

However, recently I've came across

bitauth

Works perfectly in version 2.1.2, without any sort of debugging required. Clean css which does not mess my normal stylesheets, and easily overridden.

I'd recommend this for anyone who is looking for an authentication library in 2012, as it is still being managed.

Answer 2

As little i know, TankAuth was missing several features and code fix but it was not updated nor maintained. So ion_auth is a very good replacement, because it's now maintened (as part of CI based pyrocms).

TA is still working i think, but as there are no updates i would say go ION_AUTH

Answer 3

我使用的是Ion Auth，但必须对其进行广泛的修改，以比管理员和成员用户更详细地进行用户级访问，并且对于典型的Web应用程序，无需您自己修改代码就不需要ACL。
