How can I detect HTTP method in CodeIgniter controller class?
Edited:
Is there any other way than using $_SERVER[\'REQUEST_METHOD\']
in
In CodeIgniter 3, you can use the method uhm...method of Input Class.
From the docs:
echo $this->input->method(TRUE); // Outputs: POST
echo $this->input->method(FALSE); // Outputs: post
echo $this->input->method(); // Outputs: post
You can detect GET and POST by using the Input library.
$this->input->post()
or $this->input->get()
More information can be found: http://ellislab.com/codeigniter%20/user-guide/libraries/input.html
Thanks to Branden, I've found the answer.
$this->input->server($index)
is identical to $_SERVER[$index]
.
To get method you can use: $this->input->server('REQUEST_METHOD')
.
UPDATE: (thanks to Ecir Hana)
As of CodeIgniter 3, using of method is also possible:
echo $this->input->method(TRUE); // Outputs: POST
echo $this->input->method(FALSE); // Outputs: post
echo $this->input->method(); // Outputs: post
