CodeIgniter 4 Snippets

A Visual Studio Code extension providing a rich collection of snippets and autocomplete entries for CodeIgniter 4 development.

Overview

This extension accelerates CodeIgniter 4 development by offering:

Class Scaffolding: Controllers, Models, Entities, Filters, Migrations, Seeders, etc.
Helper Functions & Constants: env(), csrf_field(), CI_VERSION, APPPATH, and more.
Query Builder API: $builder->where(), join(), groupBy(), limit(), etc.
HTTP & Response: Request, Response, Redirect, Session, Cookie, and File handling snippets.
Authentication & Routing: Simplify route_to(), $routes->get(), and related calls.
Utility Classes: Time, Validation, Pagination, Image, Encryption, and Email helpers.

Instead of memorizing long method names, type a short prefix (e.g. ci:class:controller) and press Tab to expand.

Requirements

CodeIgniter 4.3.0 or later
Visual Studio Code 1.75.0 or later (or any compatible VS Code–based editor)

Installation

Open Visual Studio Code (or VSCodium, WindSurf, Cursor).
Navigate to the Extensions view (Ctrl+Shift+X on Windows/Linux or ⌘+Shift+X on macOS).
Search for CodeIgniter 4 Snippets or install from the Visual Studio Marketplace.
Reload the editor to activate the extension.

Usage

Open a PHP file within a CodeIgniter 4 project.
Type a snippet prefix, for example:
```
ci:class:controller
```
Press Tab or Enter to expand into the full class boilerplate.

Recommended Browser Extension

For developers who work with .vsix files for offline installations or distribution, the complementary One-Click VSIX extension is recommended, available for both Chrome and Firefox.

One-Click VSIX integrates a direct "Download Extension" button into each VSCode Marketplace page, ensuring the file is saved with the .vsix extension, even if the server provides a .zip archive. This simplifies the process of installing or sharing extensions offline by eliminating the need for manual file renaming.
