CodeIgniter URL Encryption - codeigniter

All Viewers I am New in Codeigniter, I need your guide to done my work, I want to Encrypted full URL like below example.
For example this is my url www.example.com & my controller is home, so full url is www.example.com/home
now I want to encrypted all controller, function like below
www.example.com/5115784bef2514430e7f74d9a71d4142a942efb0f7cc428626bda7633326f9d015fbacc60d93cd6b858f9b6e05c1e56263acb24297cecc720467eb4f222d81e5hdn5B
I can encrypted & decrypted the text well, but I just don't get how can I decrypted from url & make understand which controller or function its called, I want to decrypted everything after base_url.
please don't suggest me about using common controller, because I already know that & anyhow common controller its hide everything so its not required the encryption as I believe.
Waiting for your positive response, hopefully my problem will be solve soon. T.I.A

Well i never encrypt any URL before but you can use a php function url_encode
And "str_replace" function.
the reason for using "str_replace" beacause url_encode only encode special character in URL.
Hope I help some.
Try the code below.
urlencode(str_replace("your_domain.com/YourCOntrollerName/YourMethodName" , "SM5ah52" , yor_domain.com . "YourCOntrollerName/YourMethodName/YOuData"));
If not this. There is an library in CI Framework called Encryption.
You can get help from there Encryption.

Go with URI Routing and define one controller to decode whatever you are passing, and call proper controller / method from it.

You can use URI Routing with regular expressions.
$route["other_controllers/method"] = "other_controllers/method"; //you can add this kind of lines to not to affect other controllers
$route["([a-zA-Z0-9]+)"] = "home/decrypt/$1";
In the home controller, You can
Redirect to the page
Or
Load a view
public function decrypt($token){
//geting the page according to the token from database.
$desired_page = $this->some_model->get_page($token);
//if you want to redirect
redirect($desired_page);
//if you want to load a view
$this->load->view($desired_page);
}

Whats the difference between redirect and this in Codeigniter?

I am new in Codeigniter and it's one of the good frameworks of php. But on some conditions I'm confused. Like this one. If any of you have any clarification about my dough, it's a great help for me.
Offcouse redirects refresh the page and $this not but apart from this I want to know - anyhow both of them used to go to somewhere else on view pages or like in other controller or in same controller to other methods.
But we don't use these side by side because when getting any of them it will go to that page or method without checking the next lines.
In case of a normal difference then have lot's of but I just want to know about the condition of going to next page or method when we use redirect or $this like this -
$this->Function($value); //It's method of same controller.
redirect('Controller/function'); //It's also doing same with page reload.
Thank for looking my problem.
Redirect()
When you will call any function of helper in codeigniter then you can call function directly without using any object. Helper in Codeigniter is collection of functions.
Redirect() method is a part of URL helper in Codeigniter.
For your ref. https://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/helpers/url_helper.html
So, just load helper using $this->load->helper('url'); or you can also mention in autoload.php file.
$this->Function(); used to call a function from same controller
$this->Function(); used to call a function from same controller
redirect()
While building a web application, we often need to redirect the user from one page to another page. CodeIgniter makes this job easy for us. The redirect() function is used for this purpose.
redirect($uri = '', $method = 'auto', $code = NULL)
The first argument can have two types of URI. We can pass full site URL or URI segments to the controller you want to direct.
The second optional parameter can have any of the three values from auto, location or refresh. The default is auto.
The third optional parameter is only available with location redirects and it allows you to send specific HTTP response code.
Redirect means jumping to another function mentioned in the redirect method.
$this->Function($value); => jumping to another function and you can execute the code of the same function as well as pass the value back by returning value.
When you send request to codeigniter generally CI controller gets called and then function which is mentioned in uri segment. like below... So this will be another request.
redirect('Controller/function'); //It's also doing same with page reload.
But when you have to call another function within the same request then you can use below approach
$this->Function($value); //It's method of same controller.
This will execute the given function and return the value within same request.

How to hide function and parameter from url in codeigniter?

this is my URL.
http://localhost/savyy/home/home_page/Islamabad
i want to show it like
http://localhost/savyy/home
i m using uri routing code
$route['home/(:any)'] = 'home/home_page/$1;
but nothings happen...it shows same URL. can anyone please help me ? please tell me how to hide function name and parameter.
I dont think it will work that way, the request is the route to controller. the request uri will be the same. you will still have the "home/home_page/islamabad" in your url. unless you redirect with the home_page() to home() and save the islamabad in a session.

send data to specific url with codeigniter

i'm a newbie in codeiginiter,
i want auto send data like a form submit to a specific url,example
http://192.165.10.X/hit/get?id=000000010101001&30001=1500:0&30002=85:2
where (000000010101001&30001=1500:0&30002=85:2) is a parameter i want to send.
how can i do that with codeigniter,
or can someone advice technic or share a link to be learn,
Thanks for helping me ,
In CodeIgnitor, The URL usually will be example.com/index.php/news/article/1.
you can use POST/GET method to send data to any public function in the controller. In the controller function, you can get the POST data using either $_POST or $this->input->post(); . If its GET method, you can use $this->uri->segment(SEGMENT NO);

How to handle encrypted URL's in rails?

I am sending email to user, in that email one link is there to redirect that user to rails application. I want that link to be in encrypted form with domain name for example:
https://www.domain_name.com?hdurstihnzdfalgfgdfhdrbnhduolsasrtyumyrtyr
when user click on this link, he should directly redirect to controller method we specified in that URL which is not visible.
Controller and methods given in URL may vary according to user.
So my question is how we can do this in rails.
If I encrypt controller name, method name and parameter we passed. How routes file come to know where to redirect this URL? How to decrypt this in routes file and redirect internally to decrypted URL?
Life will be easier if you can do a slight modification to your url, something like:
https://www.domain_name.com/enc/hdurstihnzdfalgfgdfhdrbnhduolsasrtyumyrtyr
Then you can create a route for that path to redirect where you want.
get '/enc/:encoded_path' => "controller#action"
This would give you access to params[:encoded_path], which would equal hdurstihnzdfalgfgdfhdrbnhduolsasrtyumyrtyr in this case. From there, you could decode in the controller and then redirect however you want.
That's not the right approach. Here's what you can do instead:
Create a new controller action, say for instance, activate.
def activate
activation_token = params[:auth_token]
....
your logic to do whatever with this token
end
Create a corresponding route:
match '/activate' => 'your_awesome_controller#activate'
Now, when you email your users, I'm guessing you're sending some sort of activation token. If not, create two new fields in your users table:
activation_token:string
activated:boolean
Use some unique string generation algorithm to generate your activation_token and email it to your user:
yourdomain.com/activate?auth_token=user.activation_token

Can I have multiple inputs in a form in CodeIgniter URL?

I know that CodeIgniter already elegantly handles URL's. What I have is a form with multiple elements (date, keyword, location = optional). Is it possible to set up CI to create a URL that looks like:
mysite.com/class/function/date/keyword?
If you are using CodeIgniter's form helper, it sends your form data via POST, so you can't easily have your field's value displayed in the url.
What you could have, though, is a controller method that collects your form data and redirects to the url you want.
If you need further clarification, please let me know.
Yes, you can use the anchor function by passing the relevant info to it.
