Drop-in PHP login module that's database agnostic, doesn't require any libraries, and supports remember-me functionality.

**Installation using Composer**

Run:

```
composer require avokicchi/login-manager

```

Then use:

```
require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

```

To load the library.

**Features**

- Simple to add to existing projects
- Remember Me functionality (extend login session lifetime using cookies)
- Secure pages requiring fresh login
- Database agnostic, uses PDO
- No other libraries or dependencies needed
- Simple Key/Value storage on login object that lasts for the duration of the login session in case you need to remember something during login.

**Requirements**

- php 7.2+
- PDO database connection

**Notes**I will not extend this library with password recovery, email validation, or two-factor authentication as that goes way beyond the scope of this and would require including libraries and defeats the point of this, which is to provide a simple login system for simple (personal use) projects, or a basic login system to build on top of.

If you want that kind of functionality, I would at the moment probably recommend phpgangsta/googleauthenticator for two factor authentication, and mandrill, mailchimp or mailgun for your email sending needs.

I hope this is useful to anyone. ~ Avo

For simple usage examples, see the Examples/ folder.

In the future, I will create a small demo project that goes into more detail and shows how to use this library with dependency injection.
