Documentation of My Form validation of codeigniter

We have seen the weakness of Form validation class for codeigniter. Let's see how we can fix this short comings. I have an extended Form validation class of codeigniter. we will discuss it here:

First of all, we are going to combine our $_FILES and $_POST variables together. we use php's array_merge to merge them.

/**
     * Constructor
     *
     * @author Tahsin Hasan 
     * @return void
     * @access public
     */
    public function __construct() {
        $_POST = (count($_FILES) > 0) ? array_merge($_POST,$_FILES) : $_POST;
        parent::__construct();
    }

After merging them together, we call our parent constructor function.

/**
     * Allowed types rule
     *
     * @author Tahsin Hasan 
     * @return bool
     * @param  str String field name to validate
     * @param  types String allowed types
     * @access public
     */
    public function allowed_types($str, $types)
    {
        $type = explode(',', $types);
        $filetype = pathinfo($str['name'],PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
        return (in_array($filetype, $type)) ? TRUE : FALSE;
    }

We are using two new rules for upload functions: allowed_types and max_file_size. In the allowed_types function we can set a range of allowed file types for our uploaded file.

/**
     * Setting maximum file upload size
     *
     * @author Tahsin Hasan 
     * @return bool
     * @param  str String field name to validate
     * @param  size Integer maximum upload size in bytes
     * @access public
     */

    public function max_file_size($str, $size)
    {
        return ($str['size']<=$size) ? TRUE : FALSE;
    }

In the max_file_size rule we checking the uploaded file whether it is uploaded in the specified file upload size.

Weakness of codeigniter Form Validation

Codeigniter Form Validation is a very popular validation library. we use this library quite extensively. But it has some short comings. we will discuss the shortcomings here.

the Form Validation library only validates $_POST fields. so, if we have a upload image in our form, this validation library always shows that the uploaded field is empty.

we set the validation rule for our upload field as follows:

$val->set_rules('userfile', 'Profile Picture', 'required');

This is because our uploaded file resides in the $_FILES variable, not in the $_POST field. So, we need to make some way to validate our $_FILES variable.

See my extended Form Validation library for codeigniter. This weakness has been overcome.

How to use MY extended Codeigniter Form Validation Library

We have seen the documentation of Codeigniter Form Validation library. now we will see how we will use it in our coding.

First, we need to download our library. Then we need to place it under the Application-> library folder.

As it is an extended version of Form Validation, so, we can have it by loading our form validation library.

$this->load->library('Form_validation');

Now we will set rule for our upload field like this:

$this-form_validation->set_rules('userfile', 'Profile Picture', 'required|allowed_types[jpg,png,jpeg]|max_file_size[10]');

By allowed_types[jpg]
Here by allowed_types[jpg,png,jpeg] we mean our allowed types are jpg, png and jpeg. And with max_file_size we set the maximum bytes that is allowed to upload.

$this-form_validation->set_message('allowed_types','Please upload jpg, jpeg and png types');

With this we can set custom messages for our rules.

curl + cookie + redirect = nightmare

Sometime we use curl to store cookies in the remote server. and do our workings accordingly. Curl comes up with two options to deal with cookie settings remotely. They are the followings:

COOKIEJAR: it sets the cookie variables in the local machine and stores it in a file. we store it for later use. This file is written in netscap cookie file format. the values are delimited with a tab. A cookie is stored on a single line.
COOKIEFILE: This variable sends the cookie file to the remote server.

see the following code block. it explains the above discussion.

//create cURL connection
        $curl_connection = curl_init('remote_server_url');

        //set options
        curl_setopt($curl_connection, CURLOPT_POST, TRUE);
        curl_setopt($curl_connection, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, false);        
        curl_setopt($curl_connection, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
        curl_setopt($curl_connection, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);        
        //set data to be posted        
        curl_setopt($curl_connection, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post_string);
        curl_setopt($curl_connection, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, 'cookies.txt');
        curl_setopt($curl_connection, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, 'cookies.txt');

Here we send the cookie with the last two lines.

Now if we redirect our header in the remote server, then there will be a problem. your server then could not find the cookie file. and you will be signed out or related problem will be arose.

To solve this problem, you need to set your cookie after redirect call is made. So, you need to set cookie like this after a redirection is made.

setcookie('asite', $site, time()+60*60, '/', 'site.com');

Size of a request header field exceeds server limit.

I have come up a strange error. It shows me a bad server request and shows Size of a request header field exceeds server limit. So, it is a unusual problem. And I found that my server is requesting with another server with a corrupted cookie file. I am sharing with you the cookie file so you can understand the situation.

This is a corrupted cookie file. Apache has a header size limit of

# allow up to 100 headers in a request
  LimitRequestFields 100
  # each header may be up to 8190 bytes long
  LimitRequestFieldsize 8190

Again, IIS 7 has a size of 16K and IIS 6 has 8K length of header size.

So, we need to manually delete this cookie file. As cookies are browser specific, you need to check our browser how to delete those. I was using firefox and the solution is to go to tools->clear private data.

syntax error near unexpected token `('

We, the linux users sometime face this problem. when we want to open a file with terminal or doing some work like svn commits or deletion we need to do deal with files. if a file contains invalid character's, then we will come up with this erros.

syntax error near unexpected token `('

if we have a file named 'name (copy).html', then doing the following command will produce the above error:

vim name (copy).html

Here we need to escape the unwanted characters with '\'. So, we need to modify our code the following.

vim name\ \(copy\).html

Now our command will work like a charm!

Documentation of Codeigniter My Input Library

Codeigniter Input Library comes up with many great security features. But it still lacks some of the security concerns. We have discussed those in our blog earlier. So, I have created an extended input library to minimize those security holes.

I have extend the xss_clean method of input class. and added some advanced level of security fixes. We have replaced the following code for naughty words in the xss_clean method.

/*
  * Sanitize naughty HTML elements
  *
  * If a tag containing any of the words in the list
  * below is found, the tag gets converted to entities.
  *
  * Becomes: <blink>
  *
        */
        $naughty = '\w*';
        $str = preg_replace_callback('#<(\w*/*\s*)('.$naughty.')([^><]*)([><]*)#is', array($this, '_sanitize_naughty_html'), $str);

instead of

/*
  * Sanitize naughty HTML elements
  *
  * If a tag containing any of the words in the list
  * below is found, the tag gets converted to entities.
  *
  * Becomes: <blink>
  *
  */
  $naughty = 'alert|applet|audio|basefont|base|behavior|bgsound|blink|body|embed|expression|form|frameset|frame|head|html|ilayer|iframe|input|isindex|layer|link|meta|object|plaintext|style|script|textarea|title|video|xml|xss';
  $str = preg_replace_callback('#<(/*\s*)('.$naughty.')([^><]*)([><]*)#is', array($this, '_sanitize_naughty_html'), $str);

Here In the input library we have defined many HTML keywords which will be treated as naughty keywords. But there are many more keywords which will do massive damage to our site. Like, the header tags 'h1', as we mentioned about the probable attack of it in our blog post earlier. So, I have treated every html words as naughty and convert them. In this regard, we use regular expression to check for any word character and it can occur any number of time.

Weakness of Codeigniter Input Library

Codeigniter Input Library has minimized many security holes. But still there are some leaks in it. The input library has defined some html keywords as naughty entries. But these naughty keywords are not all to be aware of.

There are still many keywords which have significant threat for a website. So, we must need to take care of those malwords. Let's discuss some of them.

the header tags 'h1', h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 can have a significant impact, if we use it with the input library. if we use only the starting tag and never end those tags, then our page layout will be broken. Use the following with h1 tag at the beginning and you will see the result in the browser.

it is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the ye

Again if we use b, strong keywords the same will be the case.

See how to solve it here.

Codeigniter Advanced Layout Library

We have several layout library in the wiki of codeigniter. But those has only one replacement block. Advanced codeigniter library solves this problem. You can find the features of advanced layout library here here. Let's discuss about Advanced Layout library for codeigniter.

we will see every code block of the library and discuss them seperately. At first we have defined our necessary variables.

#ci instance
    public $ci;
    #layout variable
    public $layout;

In the constructor function we have created an instance of codeigniter. the argument of the function gets the filename of our main codeigniter library.

/**
     * Constructor
     *
     * @author Tahsin Hasan 
     * @return void
     * @param  layout String layout file name
     * @access public
     */
    public function __construct($layout = "layout_main") {
        $this->ci =& get_instance();
        $this->layout = $layout;        
    }

Let's see the code block of the function that handles the block replacement of our layout. we are passing here three arguments: blocks array contains key-value relationship of block and their corresponding replacement code chunk. view is the filename of the main body content area.

/**
     * shows our blocks in the layout section
     *
     * @author Tahsin Hasan 
     * @return void
     * @param  blocks Array blocks to replace
     * @param  view String code to replace with
     * @param  data Array the data we need to pass
     * @access public
     */
    public function view($blocks, $view, $data)
    {   
        $layout       = $this->layout;
        $data['content_for_layout'] = $this->ci->load->view($view, $data, true);
        
        $view = $this->ci->load->view($layout, $data, true);
        foreach($blocks as $key=>$val)
        {
           if(empty($val))
           {
               $replaces[$key] = '';
           }
           else
           {
               $replaces[$key] = $this->ci->load->view ( $val, NULL, TRUE );
           }            
        }
        $view = str_replace(array_keys($replaces), array_values($replaces), $view);
        
        $this->ci->load->view ( 'view', array ('view' => $view) );
    }

The content_for_layout variable contains the main body section of a page. We replace this string value with our page specific content. with this page specific content, we then replace the layout with our values and store it in the view file.

Download Advanced Layout library from here.
The block variable contains the other replacements except the main content. we replace each varible with the foreach loop.

the str_replace function done the tricks here. it replaces the keys with the values of the view variable. And finally, we load the view file.

Features of Advanced Layout library of Codeigniter

We have seen the documentation of Advanced Layout Library of Codeigniter. But before using it, we must know what features it brings to us. Let's see them:

Other layout library give us the opportunity to make one single block replacement for our layout. But in Advanced Layout library, we can have as many blocks as we wish to have. We just have to define the block and a variable to represent it. Advanced Layout library will take care of the rest. it's simple.
We can even have multiple blocks in our main content block. we have shown how to use multiple blocks in layout and also in the main content block. So, we will have more control of your layout using Advanced Layout library for codeigniter.

How to use Advanced layout library

We have seen the documentation. Now let's see how we can use the library. At first we need to load Advanced Layout Library for codeigniter.

$this->load->library('advancedLayout');

Now we will set our main layout file in it:

$this->advancedlayout->setLayout('path_to_layoutfile');

We have put our main layout file in the view file. The file is like this:


html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
    head
//        stylesheets link will be here.
        
    /head
    body
        {HEADER_LAYOUT}
        
        {TOP_LAYOUT}
            {FLASH_MSG_CONT}
            
            
        {FOOTER_LAYOUT}
    /body
/html

Here, you can see we have set some variable which will be replaced with our layout values. We can have here as many replacement block as we like. we have set header, top navigation, flash message, body and footer. Not necessary that we also need to implement all those blocks. just use as you like the blocks to be.

In the controller, from which the page is called, we need to replace our layout variables there. the following code does the trick:

$this->advancedlayout->view(array ('{HEADER_LAYOUT}' => 'common/header','{TOP_LAYOUT}'=>'', '{FLASH_MSG_CONT}' => 'common/flash_msg_cont', '{FOOTER_LAYOUT}' => 'common/footer' ),$viewName, $this->_data);

Here, you can see that each variables is set as key and there is a corresponding files in he view file. so, we just write the location of the specific view file. then the variable is replaced with our code.

we set multiple blocks even the main content block. just check the following code block.

echo $admin_right_column;

we are echoing a variable, this can be any variable that we set in the controller. now we need to write the following the controller:

$this->_data['admin_right_column'] = $this->load->view('common/admin_right',$this->_data, TRUE);

Here, the variable contains the content of the admin right column.

And finally, you need to have a view file named 'view' in our main view folder. the file will be like this:

echo $view;

tweetsigniter Documentation

Let's see step by step explanation of our tweetsigniter class, a twitter codeigniter library. Initially, we have declared all our necessary global variables, like username, password, path, template, timezone etc.

# username field
    public $username;
    # password field
    public $password;
    # maximum no. of values
    public $maxItems;
    # path value
    public $path;
    # timezone value
    public $timezone;
    public $configs = array();
    # template file name
    public $template;

Next comes the constructor method. it defines our template variable. we will replace the template values.

public function  __construct()
    {
        $this->template = "
{text}
";
    }

we set the necessary values with this method like username, password, maxItem shows the maximum no. of items to be displayed, and timezone will be your timezone.

public function setInfo($username, $password, $maxItems = '5', $timezone = '+6')
    {
        $this->username = $username;
        $this->password = $password;
        $this->timezone = $timezone;
        $this->maxItems = $maxItems;
        $this->config();
    }

We set necessary configuraion Information with these function.

public function config()
    {
        $this->configs['template'] = $this->template;
        $this->configs['maxitems'] = $this->maxItems;
    }

The following function shows all your tweets. you can apply css style within the html elements. the cut and resume functions process tweeter responses.

public function easyfeeder()
    {
        $content=$this->twitterXml('http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline.xml');
        $items=explode("",$content);
        array_shift($items);

        $retstr="Latest News
";          foreach($items as $cnt=>$item)         {             if($this->configs['maxitems']>0 and $cnt+1>$this->configs['maxitems']) break;              $created_at=$this->cut("","",$item);             $text=$this->cut("","",$item);             $itemid=$this->cut("","",$item);             $screenname=$this->cut("","",$item);              $created_day = substr($created_at, 0, 3);             $created_monthday = substr($created_at, 4, 6);             $created_timehour = substr($created_at, 11, 2);             $created_timehour = $created_timehour + $this->timezone;             $created_timeminutes = substr($created_at, 14, 2);             $created_year = substr($created_at, 26, 4);             if ($created_timehour == 12) {                 $ampm = "pm";             } else if (($created_timehour > 12) AND ($created_timehour < 24)) {
                $ampm = "pm";
                $created_timehour = $created_timehour - 12;
            } else if ($created_timehour == 24) {
                $ampm = "am";
                $created_timehour = 12;
            } else {
                $ampm = "am";
            }

            $created_at = $created_day . ", " . $created_monthday . ", " . $created_year . " - " . $created_timehour . ":" . $created_timeminutes . $ampm;
            $itemlink = "http://twitter.com/" . $screenname . "/statuses/" . $itemid;

            $tpl=$this->configs['template'];              $tpl=str_replace("{created_at}",$created_at,$tpl);             $tpl=str_replace("{text}",$text,$tpl);             $tpl=str_replace("{itemlink}",$itemlink,$tpl);              $retstr.=$tpl;         }         $retstr.="";
        return $retstr;
    }

Following is the cut and resume methods that we used in the above method.

public function cut($start,$end,$word)
    {
        $word=substr($word,strpos($word,$start)+strlen($start));
        $word=substr($word,0,strpos($word,$end));
        return $word;
    }

    public function resume($text,$limit=7)
    {
        $words=@explode(" ",$text);
        $words=@array_splice($words,0,$limit);
        $retstr=@implode(" ",$words);
        return $retstr."... ";
    }

The following method will show all you tweeter followers.

public function twitterFollowers()
    {
        $this->template = "

";
        $content=$this->twitterXml('http://twitter.com/statuses/followers.xml');

        $items=explode("",$content);
        array_shift($items);

        $retstr="Latest News
";          foreach($items as $cnt=>$item)         {             if($this->configs['maxitems']>0 and $cnt+1>$this->configs['maxitems']) break;              $created_at=$this->cut("","",$item);             $text=$this->cut("","",$item);             $itemid=$this->cut("","",$item);             $screenname=$this->cut("","",$item);              $itemlink = "http://twitter.com/" . $screenname;              $tpl=$this->template;              $tpl=str_replace("{text}",$text,$tpl);             $tpl=str_replace("{itemlink}",$itemlink,$tpl);              $retstr.=$tpl;         }         $retstr.="";
        return $retstr;
    }

This method will show all your tweeter friends.

public function twitterFriends()
    {
        $this->template = "

";
        $content=$this->twitterXml('http://twitter.com/statuses/friends.xml');

        $items=explode("",$content);
        array_shift($items);

        $retstr="Latest News
";          foreach($items as $cnt=>$item)         {             if($this->configs['maxitems']>0 and $cnt+1>$this->configs['maxitems']) break;              $created_at=$this->cut("","",$item);             $text=$this->cut("","",$item);             $itemid=$this->cut("","",$item);             $screenname=$this->cut("","",$item);              $itemlink = "http://twitter.com/" . $screenname;              $tpl=$this->template;              $tpl=str_replace("{text}",$text,$tpl);             $tpl=str_replace("{itemlink}",$itemlink,$tpl);              $retstr.=$tpl;         }         $retstr.="";
        return $retstr;
    }

let's see how we have connected with tweeter. we used curl to connect with tweeter. the following method done the trick for us.

function twitterXml($url)
    {
        $curl_handle = curl_init();
        curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_URL, "$url");
        curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 2);
        curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
        curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "$this->username:$this->password");
        $buffer = curl_exec($curl_handle);
        curl_close($curl_handle);

        return $buffer;
    }

Resolving SVN conflict

At times there may arise a conflict when working with svn. Let's see how we can minimize it. when a conflict occurs four new files are created. they are the followings:

myfile – the original with markers
myfile.mine – your version
myfile.r5 – the original your worked with
myfile.r6 – the most update version from your colleague

There are several options for resolving conflicts.

1. I can keep all my works and discard the changes my colleague made with the following command:

$ cp myfile.mine myfile
$ svn resolved myfile
Resolved conflicted state of 'myfile'

2. I will discard all my changes and keep my colleagues work with these commands:

$ svn revert myfile
Reverted 'myfile'
$ svn update myfile
At revision 6.

The ‘resolved’ command will clean up all the special files that were generated. Now commit your changes.

3. we can merge both version. we need to do this manually removing the markers and placing the codes of my mine and my colleagues as necessary. then do the following command:

$ svn resolved myfile
Resolved conflicted state of 'myfile'

Now commit your changes.
