Easy Configuration Management Library

If you are writing a WordPress theme or a PHP application, most likely you will have some configuration values. The conventional approach involves creating a file with a bunch of variables and constants, then including every file in your script, which may not be the most intuitive way. Inspired by Laravel's elegant configuration handling, I developed Config to provide a similar experience for PHP projects, especially in the context of WordPress themes.

Installation

to install config in your project you just need to run this command

$ composer require azi/config

Up & Running

after installing config you will need to create a directory named config in root of your project where your composer.json lives in this directory you can store your configuration files. i.e database.php or site.php lets say you want to store your database configuration values here. you will have to follow the following steps.

• create a file called database.php
• return your configuration values form that file like

  return [
     'mysql' => [
       'host' => '127.0.0.1',
       'username' => 'root',
       'password' => 'secrete'
     ]
   ];

• access the values from anywhere in your application like

   // will return 127.0.0.1
$host = Azi\Config::get('database.mysql.host');

// OR
$db = Azi\Config::get('database.mysql');
$host = $db->get('host');
$username = $db->get('username');
$password = $db->get('password');

with this package you will also get a little helper function to access values you can also write the above code like this

  // will return 127.0.0.1
  $host = config('database.mysql.host');
