426<h1>Hooks - Extending the Framework Core<a class="headerlink" href="#hooks-extending-the-framework-core" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h1>
427<p>CodeIgniter’s Hooks feature provides a means to tap into and modify the
428inner workings of the framework without hacking the core files. When
429CodeIgniter runs it follows a specific execution process, diagramed in
430the <a class="reference internal" href="../overview/appflow.html"><span class="doc">Application Flow</span></a> page. There may be
431instances, however, where you’d like to cause some action to take place
432at a particular stage in the execution process. For example, you might
433want to run a script right before your controllers get loaded, or right
434after, or you might want to trigger one of your own scripts in some
435other location.</p>
436<div class="section" id="enabling-hooks">
437<h2>Enabling Hooks<a class="headerlink" href="#enabling-hooks" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
438<p>The hooks feature can be globally enabled/disabled by setting the
439following item in the <strong>application/config/config.php</strong> file:</p>
440<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nv">$config</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">&#39;enable_hooks&#39;</span><span class="p">]</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="k">TRUE</span><span class="p">;</span>

443</div>
444<div class="section" id="defining-a-hook">
445<h2>Defining a Hook<a class="headerlink" href="#defining-a-hook" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
446<p>Hooks are defined in the <strong>application/config/hooks.php</strong> file.
447Each hook is specified as an array with this prototype:</p>
448<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nv">$hook</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">&#39;pre_controller&#39;</span><span class="p">]</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="k">array</span><span class="p">(</span>
449 <span class="s1">&#39;class&#39;</span> <span class="o">=&gt;</span> <span class="s1">&#39;MyClass&#39;</span><span class="p">,</span>
450 <span class="s1">&#39;function&#39;</span> <span class="o">=&gt;</span> <span class="s1">&#39;Myfunction&#39;</span><span class="p">,</span>
451 <span class="s1">&#39;filename&#39;</span> <span class="o">=&gt;</span> <span class="s1">&#39;Myclass.php&#39;</span><span class="p">,</span>
452 <span class="s1">&#39;filepath&#39;</span> <span class="o">=&gt;</span> <span class="s1">&#39;hooks&#39;</span><span class="p">,</span>

454<span class="p">);</span>
455</pre></div>
456</div>
457<p><strong>Notes:</strong></p>
458<p>The array index correlates to the name of the particular hook point you
459want to use. In the above example the hook point is pre_controller. A
460list of hook points is found below. The following items should be
461defined in your associative hook array:</p>
462<ul class="simple">
463<li><strong>class</strong> The name of the class you wish to invoke. If you prefer to
464use a procedural function instead of a class, leave this item blank.</li>
465<li><strong>function</strong> The function (or method) name you wish to call.</li>
466<li><strong>filename</strong> The file name containing your class/function.</li>
467<li><strong>filepath</strong> The name of the directory containing your script.
468Note:
469Your script must be located in a directory INSIDE your <em>application/</em>
470directory, so the file path is relative to that directory. For example,
471if your script is located in <em>application/hooks/</em>, you will simply use
472‘hooks’ as your filepath. If your script is located in
473<em>application/hooks/utilities/</em> you will use ‘hooks/utilities’ as your
474filepath. No trailing slash.</li>
475<li><strong>params</strong> Any parameters you wish to pass to your script. This item
476is optional.</li>
477</ul>
478<p>You can also use lambda/anoymous functions (or closures) as hooks, with
479a simpler syntax:</p>
480<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nv">$hook</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">&#39;post_controller&#39;</span><span class="p">]</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="k">function</span><span class="p">()</span>
481<span class="p">{</span>
482 <span class="cm">/* do something here */</span>
483<span class="p">};</span>
484</pre></div>
485</div>
486</div>
487<div class="section" id="multiple-calls-to-the-same-hook">
488<h2>Multiple Calls to the Same Hook<a class="headerlink" href="#multiple-calls-to-the-same-hook" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
489<p>If want to use the same hook point with more than one script, simply
490make your array declaration multi-dimensional, like this:</p>
491<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nv">$hook</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">&#39;pre_controller&#39;</span><span class="p">][]</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="k">array</span><span class="p">(</span>

512<p>This permits you to have the same hook point with multiple scripts. The
513order you define your array will be the execution order.</p>

515<div class="section" id="hook-points">
516<h2>Hook Points<a class="headerlink" href="#hook-points" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>

538<li><strong>cache_override</strong>
539Enables you to call your own method instead of the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">_display_cache()</span></code>
540method in the <a class="reference internal" href="../libraries/output.html"><span class="doc">Output Library</span></a>. This permits
541you to use your own cache display mechanism.</li>
