I think the answer by @avenda goes someway but as you've mentioned there is only 1x DB then there is no need to play around with that code.

I think your simplest solution in your config file is simply:

$config['base_url'] = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];

And then in your routes file:

if ($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] == 'x'){
    $routes['default_controller'] = 'xController';
} elseif ($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] == 'y'){
    $routes['default_controller'] = 'yController';
}

Haven't tested it but have a similar need coming up on a project so will have to implement something similar.

Try this:

ex: - subdomain1.hostname.com - subdomain2.hostname.com

then in my front index:

// Host address
$host = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
$SERVER_NAME = $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'];
define('HOST', $SERVER_NAME);

// Extract eventual subdomain
$host3 = strrpos($host, '.');
$host2 = substr($host, 0, $host3);
$host1 = strrpos($host2, '.');
$subdomain = substr($host, 0, $host1);

if($host == 'localhost') {
    define('HOST_TYPE', 'localhost');
    define('SUBDOMAIN', FALSE);
} else {
    if($subdomain !== 'www' && $subdomain !== '') {
        define('HOST_TYPE', 'subdomain');
        define('SUBDOMAIN', $subdomain);
    } else {
        define('HOST_TYPE', 'site');
        define('SUBDOMAIN', FALSE);
    }
}

in my config.php config:

switch (HOST_TYPE) {
    case 'subdomain':
        $config['base_url'] = 'http://'.SUBDOMAIN.'.hostname.com/';
        break;
    case 'localhost':
        $config['base_url'] = 'http://localhost/devpage/';
        break;
    default:
        //$config['base_url']   = 'http://mainpage.com/';
        break;
}

in my database.php config:

...
$db['default']['hostname'] = 'localhost';
switch (HOST_TYPE) {
    case 'subdomain':

        $username;
        $password;
        $con=mysqli_connect("localhost","username_db","password_db","name_db");
        $query = "SELECT * FROM subdomain_table WHERE subdomain_name = '".SUBDOMAIN."';" or die("Error in the consult.." . mysqli_error($con)); 
        if ($result = mysqli_query($con, $query)) {
            while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) { 
              $username = $row["username"];
              $password = $row["password"];
            } 
        }else{
            mysqli_close($con);
            redirect('http://hostname.com'); //No sudomain found or error page
        }
        // Check connection
        if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
                echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error();
                mysqli_close($con);
        }else{

        }
        mysqli_close($con);
        $db['default']['database'] = 'db_prefix'.SUBDOMAIN;
        $db['default']['username'] = 'username_prefix'.$usuario;
        $db['default']['password'] = $password;
        break;
    case 'localhost':
        $db['default']['database'] = 'local_dev_db_name';
        $db['default']['username'] = 'some_username';
        $db['default']['password'] = 'some_password';
        break;
    default:
        redirect('http://mainpage.com');
        break;
}



$db['default']['dbdriver'] = 'mysql';
...

finally the constants.php config:

//this one resolve all your links!!!!!
switch (HOST_TYPE) {
    case 'subdomain':
        define('URL','http://'.SUBDOMAIN.'.hostname.com/');
        break;
    case 'localhost':
        define('URL','http://localhost/devpage/');
        break;
    default:
        define('URL','http://mainpage.com/');
        break;
}

I hope you find it useful
