How to extend a model from custom model in codeigniter

Question

I created a model called Model_base extending from ci_model and added all common functions inside it

class Model_base extends CI_Model {

function __construct()
{   
    parent::__construct();          
}
function create() {
    //do insert data into database
}

function read() {
    //do get data into database
}

function update() {
    //do update data into database
}

function delete() {
    //do delete data from database
}

}

Now I want to create a new model with extending base_model is it possible in CodeIgniter

Create a new model PHP file, and use:

class Model_New extends Model_Base {

   public function __construct()
   {
      parent::__construct();
   }

}

Put this in a new file in the same directory as your other models – hohner Jan 21 '13 at 09:19

but its not working when its in same model directory, I guess we need to put it somewhere in core directory. – Wasim A. Mar 20 '16 at 05:05

Yes, you can, just remember to call the parent::__construct(); in the constructor of your new Model.
