Fresh Batch of CodeIgniter Libraries Out Now!

By Elliot ⋅ February 10, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

After a bit of work, I’ve built a nice little set of useful CodeIgniter Libraries for you to plug into your applications.
I realized, that some of the features I have here on my blog, I would quite like to use in my CodeIgniter applications. And, because many of these new web 2.0 services, it was easy to standardize the libraries using Simplepie.

Featuring:

They’re simple and useful, and hopefully you can find a good use for them!
All are free to use, and if you want to spread the love, just pop a link back here for good karma :)

Check out the updated code page.

Coming soon: Twitter CodeIgniter Library

  1. Hmmm. The lastfm link seems to be broken…

  2. Hey, I’ve fixed that now… still had it as ‘draft’! :S

  3. Amazing - thanks so much. As a CI newbie I find your libraries quite helpful. I will let you know when/where I use them :-)

  4. Nice work, but you should link Lastfm CodeIgniter Library on the Code page properly ;)

  6. [...] updates from Twitter to use in your CodeIgniter application. Looks like Elliot Haughin has more CodeIgniter libraries for Simplepie, Amazon S3, Flickr, and Lastfm. Tags: Amazon, CodeIgniter, flickr, last.fm, [...]

  7. Good work maintaining these libs.

    BTW, you might want to add this at beginning of the each lib as good practice.
    if (!defined(’BASEPATH’)) exit(’No direct script access allowed’);

  8. Dope! Why don’t you put these on the CodeIgniter forum? Or at least link to it….

  9. ONe other thing.. I am getting this error:

    Severity: User Warning

    Message: ./cache/107aba3281d2190bb8392cc495382c65.spc is not writeable

    Filename: libraries/simplepie.php

    Line Number: 1780

    Where exactly is the cache directory supposed to be setup?

  10. You should set the cache directory when calling the library:

    $this->load->library('simplepie');
$this->simplepie->set_feed_url('http://feeds.haughin.com/haughin');
$this->simplepie->set_cache_location(APPPATH.'cache/rss');
$this->simplepie->init();
$this->simplepie->handle_content_type();

  11. Thanks for the great libraries! Any recommendations on a good library to facilitate uploading to Flickr?
