How to show userdata from tank_auth in codeigniter?

What is the right way to get all the data from the 'users' table in my database, using Tank Auth?

I tried it with just with $this->db->get('users');

But how do i get the data for the specific logged-in user? Do I have to use $this->tank_auth->get_user_id();?

Here's what I've tried:

function get_user_data()
{
    $id = $this->tank_auth->get_user_id();
    $this->db->where('id', $id);
    $users = $this->db->get('users');

    return $users->result();
}

I hope somebody can help me out with this.

This code will get data about the current logged user.

In your controller:

$this->load->library('tank_auth');

if (!$this->tank_auth->is_logged_in()) {
    exit('no logged user');
} else {
    $user_id = $this->tank_auth->get_user_id();
    $user_data = $this->users->get_user_by_id($user_id,1);
}
