CodeIgniter 4 APIs Development Using Shield Authentication

Develop CodeIgniter 4 APIs in phase one without authentication, creating a students table and five endpoints: add, list, details, update, and delete, using post, get, put/patch, and delete requests.

Create a migration to build a students table with id, name, email, phone, and profile_image, using CodeIgniter 4 forge methods and primary key with auto-increment.

Set up a restful api controller and a student model in CodeIgniter 4, implementing add, list, single, update, and delete methods within an api folder and defining fields.

Create and validate an add student API in CodeIgniter 4 with Shield authentication, handling name, email, phone, and profile image, and save to the students table.

Test the add student API in a CodeIgniter 4 project using shield authentication, validating form data, uploading profile images, saving to the student model, and handling responses with Postman.

CodeIgniter 4 API development using shield authentication demonstrates a list students API. A get request calls list-students, uses the student model's findAll, and returns 200 with data.

Create a single student details API in CodeIgniter 4 by reading id from the URL, using the student model’s find, and returning 200 with data or 404 not found.

Build and secure an update student data API in CodeIgniter 4 using shield authentication, validating input, handling put requests, optional image uploads, and precise success or error responses.

Develop the delete student API in CodeIgniter 4 with shield authentication, validate the ID via find, delete when found, and return 404, 200, or 500 responses.

Develop secured API endpoints in CodeIgniter 4 using sealed authentication. Create user registration and login that issue a token, then access profile, logout, and project APIs tied to the token.

Install the shield authentication package in a CodeIgniter 4 project via composer, run spark setup to generate author.php and auth_groups.php, and update routes and migrations.

Create a migration file to build the projects table in CodeIgniter 4 API development using shield authentication, defining id, user_id, title, and budget, and migrate the table to the database.

Create two API controllers in CodeIgniter 4 with sealed authentication: auth for register, login, profile, and logout; project for user-owned projects, with a project model of user_id, title, and budget.

Define and secure CodeIgniter 4 API routes using Shield authentication, configuring the API prefix, namespace, and controllers for register, login, profile, logout, and project CRUD operations.

Create a register API in CodeIgniter 4 using Shield authentication, validating username, email, and password, enforcing unique constraints, saving with a user entity and model, and returning a structured response.

Learn to implement a login API in CodeIgniter 4 using sealed authentication, validate email and password, authenticate the user, generate an access token, and return it for protected routes.

Create an API auth filter in CodeIgniter 4 using Shield authentication to protect routes, check login with an auth helper, and enforce bearer token authorization for API access.

Build a protected profile API in CodeIgniter 4 using Shield authentication. Retrieve the logged-in user by token and return their data at api/profile via the authorization header.

Create logout API in CodeIgniter 4 using Shield authentication by destroying the user token and revoking all access tokens, ensuring protected routes require login.

Learn to build a protected add project API with Shield authentication, validating title and budget, retrieving the logged-in user id from the token, and inserting a new project record.

Learn how to create a list projects API in CodeIgniter 4 using shield authentication, retrieving the logged-in user's projects via an auth token in the authorization header.

Build a protected delete project API in CodeIgniter 4 using shield authentication, validating user id from the token and project id from the URL before deletion.

Learn to handle cross-origin requests in CodeIgniter 4 APIs using Shield authentication by creating a course filter with CORS headers and registering it in app config.

Learn CodeIgniter 4 APIs development using sealed authentication, from basic concepts to RESTful services, with authentication helpers and phase two security.
