CodeIgniter




CodeIgniter Development Services

It is an open-source software rapid development web framework, for use in building dynamic websites and applications with PHP. Its first version was released in 2006.
-It is based on the popular model–view–controller (MVC). While controller classes are a necessary part of development under CodeIgniter, models and views are optional.
-It can be further modified to use Hierarchical Model View Controller (HMVC) that allows to maintain modular grouping of Controller, Models and View arranged in a sub-directory format.
-It is considered fast as compared to other PHP frameworks.
-CodeIgniter 3 is the current version of the framework.



  •  Model-View-Controller Based System: The development pattern in CodeIgniter based on “Model-View-Controller” approach, help in isolating the presentation from the logic of the application. In this pattern, we have the data structures that are contained in ‘Model’, information fo the user is collected in ‘Views’, whereas the ‘Controller’ is mediator between Model & Views, and other things which can be required for processing HTTP request as well as for generating web-page.

  •  Error Handling: PHP deals with different errors and have various levels of error reporting and it is the server configuration on which when we run our script will decide the level of error. Display error function is controlled by underlying settings of server. Some unknown underlying settings are made known to us with help of CodeIgniter, which will provide us with simple, procedural & user-friendly interfaces that will run globally throughout the application, getting the error messages triggered heedless of the scope of class/function. It has an error logging class which aids in saving the debugging messages as well as errors in the form of  text files. All PHP errors are displayed by default with CodeIgniter.

  • Form Validation: While building web applications, it is mandate to assure the validation of the data that we need to process or store. CodeIgniter comes in the picture with the feature of data preparing class as well as with complete form validation that is helping to use the exact codes which are required. For implementing this form validation, we need basic three things, i.e. A view file having the form, secondly after the submission we need the ‘Success’ message, and thirdly  in order to receive & process the data we need the ‘Controller’.
  • Migration: The organized way of altering our database can be achieved with the feature of migration, Migration tables give an idea of migrations that have been run & we can easily manage & update our application files & we can even run the required migrations. The numbering styles used for migrations are Sequential & Timestamp.
  • Configurable & Customizable: We can create new CodeIgniter files as per the requirements of web applications. We can even edit the existing CodeIgniter files also if required.
