README

A wrapper around \Zend_Config_Ini to load module configuration throughout our application.

We don't run a giant application.ini for all settings and instead distribute configuration along with the module in local etc directories. This wrapper helps loading these configuration files whenever needed - on demand.

If no environment is set, production is assumed which also caches configuration in APC.

Requirements

• PHP 5.3+
• Zend Framework (1.11.11+)
• APC

Please note: The only Zend Framework component used is \Zend_Config_Ini (and its dependencies).

Setup

$ pear channel-discover easybib.github.com/pear
$ pear install easybib/EasyBib_Core_LoadConfig-alpha

Example

<?php
use Easybib\Core\LoadConfig as ConfigLoader;
require_once 'EasyBib/Core/LoadConfig.php';

// load app/etc/config.ini
$loader = new ConfigLoader('config.ini');
$config = $loader->load();

In case your application structure is different:

<?php
use Easybib\Core\LoadConfig as ConfigLoader;
require_once 'EasyBib/Core/LoadConfig.php';

define('APPLICATION_DIR', '/absolute/path/to/the/folder/application');

// load application/configs/config.ini
$loader = new ConfigLoader('config.ini');
$config = $loader->setConfigDir('configs')->load();
