Phalcon Configuration

It is a component which is used to convert configuration files into PHP. Its directory location is Phalcon\Config.

Implementation

<?php

use Phalcon\Config;

$config = new Config(
    [
        'test' => [
            'parent' => [
                'property'  => 1,
                'property2' => 'yeah',
            ],
        ],  
    ]
);

echo $config->get('test')->get('parent')->get('property');  
// displays 1
echo $config->test->parent->property;                  	           
// displays 1
echo $config->path('test.parent.property');       		          
// displays 1

?>

Example: To convert native array into Phalcon\Config Objects.

<?php

use Phalcon\Config;

$settings = [
    'database' => [
        'adapter'  => 'Mysql',
        'host'     => 'localhost',
        'username' => 'sid',
        'password' => 'javatpoint',
        'dbname'   => 'test_db'
    ],
     'app' => [
        'controllersDir' => '../app/controllers/',
        'modelsDir'      => '../app/models/',
        'viewsDir'       => '../app/views/'
    ],
    'mysetting' => 'the-value'
];

$config = new Config($settings);

echo $config->app->controllersDir, "\n";
echo $config->database->username, "\n";
echo $config->mysetting, "\n";

?>
