authBase

An example of authentication system for your website.

It is written in objective PHP which uses MySQLi instead of PDO.

authBase is using a PHPMailer-5.2-stable version, documentation here: PHPMailer.

Some files contains a ready PHPMailer function which is prepared to send

Files in authBase are predicted to use AJAX or jQuery.

It can be easily used with sweetAlert2 library for fancy alerts.

Feel free to use it :)

Files

The authBase contains files:

• config.php
• login.php
• registration.php
• verify.php
• lostPassword.php
• passRenew.php
• passRenewWork.php

Relations between files

Most of the files are strictly connected to each other while others work independetly.

• config.php is used in every file.

• login.php is not related with any other file than config.php.

• registration.php sends an email to user with link to verify.php.

• lostPassword.php sends an email to user with link to passRenew.php and this file is strictly connected with passRenewWork.php- AJAX recommended here.

Setting up config.php

This file contains:

<?php
  $dbserver = "";
  $dbuser = "";
  $dbpass = "";
  $dbname = "";

  $link = new mysqli($dbserver, $dbuser, $dbpass, $dbname);
  if ($link->connect_error) {
    die("Connection failed: " . $link->connect_error);
  }

$serwer_smtp = "";
$port_smtp = 465;

$smtplog = '';
$smtppass = '';

?>

• To connect to your database you must fill 4 first lines with suitable data.

• $serwer_smtp - (SMTP Server/Host) and $port_smtp are used in PHPMailer. Fulfill with suitable data.

• $smtplog - (email) and $smtppass are used to connect to sender email.

Database

My example table users look like this:

CREATE TABLE `users` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT;
  `username` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `email` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `password` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `hash` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `active` int(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
  `usertype` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT 'normal'
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

ALTER TABLE `users`
  ADD PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
  ADD UNIQUE KEY `username` (`username`),
  ADD UNIQUE KEY `email` (`email`);
  
COMMIT;
