如何在codeigniter中调用我的自定义API？

Question

I have recently created one API in Laravel .This was structure of that API :

method     : post
url        : http://172.22.34.45/mydemo/public/api/v1/file/upload
Form Data
attachment :input file
appVersion :1.0
apiVersion :2.0
type       :1
authToken  :khsdhdy997sdjjsd886

In my question is how can i implement this API in my Codeigniter project. I know using ajax but in my scenario its not working perfect.Please suggest another option eg : calling api from codeigniter controller

By using curl POST like this:

     $url = "http://172.22.34.45/mydemo/public/api/v1/file/upload";
     $data = array("all the parameters as array elements");
     try{
        $ch = curl_init();
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 100);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
        $reponse= curl_exec($ch);
        curl_close($ch);
        } catch (Exception $ex) {
     }

$data is the array with values to be sent. $reponse will have whatever you return.
