CodeIgniter-Registry

CodeIgniter-Registry is a Windows style DB based Registry library for web applications built upon CodeIgniter.

You can link the registry to a database to set default values from a table. These values can be overwritten throughout your application and reset back to the default as necessary.

Requirements

• CodeIgniter 2.0.x

Installation

In order to have database functionality, you must first create a database table for this purpose. Here is the basic prototype (for MySQL) required by the registry class:

CREATE TABLE `registry` (
	`key` varchar(50) NOT NULL default '',
	`value` varchar(200) default NULL,
	PRIMARY KEY  (`key`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8

Also make sure to point to this table in your config file.

Example

// get registry item
$this->registry->example;

// alternate get registry item
$this->registry->get_item('example');

// set registry item
$this->registry->example = 'Hello World';

// alternate set registry item
$this->registry->set_item('example', 'Hello World');

// reset item back to default value
$this->registry->reset_item('example');
