#Ion Auth 2 ###The future of authentication by Ben Edmunds

Redux Auth 2 had a lot of potential. It's lightweight, simple, and clean, but had a ton of bugs and was missing some key features. So we refactored the code and added new features.

This version drops any backwards compatibility and makes things even more awesome then you could expect.

##Support If you use this to further your career, or put money in your pocket, and would like to support the project please consider a moral license.

##Documentation Documentation is located at http://benedmunds.com/ion_auth/

##Installation Just copy the files from this package to the corresponding folder in your application folder. For example, copy Ion_auth/config/ion_auth.php to application/config/ion_auth.php

You can also copy the entire directory structure into your third_party/ folder. For example, copy everything to /application/third_party/ion_auth/

###CodeIgniter Version 2 Compatibility CodeIgniter v2 requires the class file names to be lowercase. In order to support this follow the standard installation procedures and then either rename the following files or create symlinks

models/Ion_auth_model.php         =>   models/ion_auth_model.php
controllers/Auth.php              =>   controllers/auth.php

###Relational DB Setup Then just run the appropriate SQL file (if you're using migrations you can get the migrations from JD here: https://github.com/iamfiscus/codeigniter-ion-auth-migration).

##Usage In the package you will find example usage code in the controllers and views folders. The example code isn't the most beautiful code you'll ever see but it'll show you how to use the library and it's nice and generic so it doesn't require a MY_controller or anything else.

###Default Login Username: [email protected] Password: password

###Important It is highly recommended that you use encrypted database sessions for security!

###Optimization It is recommended that you add your identity column as a unique index.

###Options Time Based One-Time Password (TOTP) - There is a Time Based One-Time Password (TOTP) implementation compatible with Google Authenticator available. Feature branch maintained by biscofil and is available at https://github.com/benedmunds/CodeIgniter-Ion-Auth/tree/otp
