README
connector
Connector helps you to manage your app's database connection configurations in dynamic environments.
Your app simply requests a configuration from connector by a name.
Connector will resolve the name into a full database configuration object with properties like username, password, address, port, protocol etc.
Connector then helps you to turn this Config object into a PDO connection.
Next to the common Config properties, Connector also allows you to define custom properties on a a database config instance. These custom properties can then be used by your app to configure the application behaviour.
Cascading configuration
A configuration may define connection properties directly,
or refer to a server and/or cluster by name.
This enables cascading configuration at 3 levels:
- db
- server
- cluster
Using this feature you can define the server or cluster at the db level, and configure address, username, password, port and custom properties at a higher level. This way you can quickly mass-reconfigure all dbs on a given server or cluster.
