Config Basic Auth and Api-Key For Codeigniter 3 REST API

1. Create table:

CREATE TABLE `keys` (
 `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
 `user_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
 `key` varchar(40) NOT NULL,
 `level` int(2) NOT NULL,
 `ignore_limits` tinyint(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
 `is_private_key` tinyint(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
 `ip_addresses` text,
 `date_created` datetime NOT NULL,
 PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

2. Insert value to Table

INSERT INTO `keys` (`id`, `user_id`, `key`, `level`, `ignore_limits`, `is_private_key`, `ip_addresses`, `date_created`) VALUES
(NULL, 1, 'yourapikeyhere', 0, 0, 0, NULL, '2018-10-11 13:34:33');

3. Search the config then set to:

$config['rest_auth'] = 'basic';
$config['rest_valid_logins'] = ['admin' => '1234'];
$config['rest_keys_table'] = 'keys';
$config['rest_enable_keys'] = TRUE;
