Uploading image from one function - php

Question

I have a edit function on my users codeigniter project, I would like to be able to use that one function for uploading images as well but user guide says to create a new function.
How am I able to make it with same edit() function.
function edit($user_id = 0) {
$this->load->model('users/model_user');
$data['title'] = "Users";
$data['base'] = config_item('HTTP_SERVER');
$data['isLogged'] = $this->user->isLogged();
$data['last_updated'] = $this->model_user->last_updated($user_id);
$data['user_id'] = $user_id;
if (!empty($this->input->post('username'))) {
$data['username'] = $this->input->post('username');
} else {
$data['username'] = $this->model_user->getUserByUsername($user_id);
}
if (!empty($this->input->post('firstname'))) {
$data['firstname'] = $this->input->post('firstname');
} else {
$data['firstname'] = $this->model_user->getUserByFirstname($user_id);
}
if (!empty($this->input->post('lastname'))) {
$data['lastname'] = $this->input->post('lastname');
} else {
$data['lastname'] = $this->model_user->getUserByLastname($user_id);
}
if (!empty($this->input->post('email'))) {
$data['email'] = $this->input->post('email');
} else {
$data['email'] = $this->model_user->getUserByEmail($user_id);
}
// User userfile
if(!empty($this->input->post('userfile'))) {
$data['userfile'] = $this->input->post('userfile');
} else {
$data['userfile'] = $this->model_user->getUserImage($user_id);
}
$config['upload_path'] = base_url('image/catalog/'); // base_url('image/catalog/');
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
$config['max_size'] = '1000';
$config['max_width'] = '1024';
$config['max_height'] = '768';
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
if (!$this->upload->do_upload()) {
$data['error'] = $this->upload->display_errors();
$data['header'] = $this->load->view('template/common/header', $data, TRUE);
$data['footer'] = $this->load->view('template/common/footer', NULL, TRUE);
return $this->load->view('template/users/users_form', $data);
} else {
$data['upload_data'] = $this->upload->data();
$data['header'] = $this->load->view('template/common/header', $data, TRUE);
$data['footer'] = $this->load->view('template/common/footer', NULL, TRUE);
return $this->load->view('template/users/users_form', $data);
}
$this->load->library('password');
$this->load->library('form_validation');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('username', 'Your Username');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('firstname', 'Your First Name');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('lastname', 'Your Last Name');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('email', 'Your Email');
if ($this->form_validation->run() == TRUE) {
$this->model_user->editUser($user_id, $data);
redirect('users');
} else {
$data['header'] = $this->load->view('template/common/header', $data, TRUE);
$data['footer'] = $this->load->view('template/common/footer', NULL, TRUE);
return $this->load->view('template/users/users_form', $data);
}
}

I have got it to work with out using codeigniter upload image helper easier this way.
controller function
function edit($user_id = 0) {
$this->load->model('users/model_user');
$data['title'] = "Users";
$data['base'] = config_item('HTTP_SERVER');
$data['isLogged'] = $this->user->isLogged();
$data['last_updated'] = $this->model_user->last_updated($user_id);
$data['user_id'] = $user_id;
if (!empty($this->input->post('username'))) {
$data['username'] = $this->input->post('username');
} else {
$data['username'] = $this->model_user->getUserByUsername($user_id);
}
if (!empty($this->input->post('firstname'))) {
$data['firstname'] = $this->input->post('firstname');
} else {
$data['firstname'] = $this->model_user->getUserByFirstname($user_id);
}
if (!empty($this->input->post('lastname'))) {
$data['lastname'] = $this->input->post('lastname');
} else {
$data['lastname'] = $this->model_user->getUserByLastname($user_id);
}
if (!empty($this->input->post('email'))) {
$data['email'] = $this->input->post('email');
} else {
$data['email'] = $this->model_user->getUserByEmail($user_id);
}
if(!empty($this->input->post('image'))) {
$data['image'] = $this->input->post('image');
} else {
$data['image'] = $this->model_user->getUserImage($user_id);
}
$data['image_path'] = config_item('HTTP_CATALOG') . '/image/catalog/';
$this->load->library('password');
$this->load->library('form_validation');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('username', 'Your Username');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('firstname', 'Your First Name');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('lastname', 'Your Last Name');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('email', 'Your Email');
if ($this->form_validation->run() == TRUE) {
$this->model_user->editUser($user_id, $data);
redirect('users');
} else {
$data['header'] = $this->load->view('template/common/header', $data, TRUE);
$data['footer'] = $this->load->view('template/common/footer', NULL, TRUE);
return $this->load->view('template/users/users_form', $data);
