Configuration about yii2 HOT 7 CLOSED

There are many ways to do this, and they are mostly about how to maintain the configuration files, which is beyond the scope of the core framework. Still in our template applications, we will provide some solutions.

I'm closing this because the core framework will not deal with this.

I have another issue with configurations. I often wanted to use functions and variables like Yii::app()->controller->createUrl() or Yii::app()->baseUrl in the configuration, eg. for jQuery plugins. Will there be something like placeholders for that?

from yii2.

You should rely on alias to achieve this. For example, '@www/path/to/file.js' would be translated to Yii::app()->baseUrl . '/path/to/file.js'.

With the new script/extension feature, you should rarely need to use this though.

Could I also reference and merge configs via the alias feature?

'components' => array(
  'db' => '@config/mydb.php'
  'urlManager' => array(
    'rules' => array(
      '@config/url-rules.php'
      '<another:rule>' => '/my/controller'
    )
  )
)

I don't think so. This is just a shortcut, but has the drawback that it will complicate the configuration syntax.

Any other plans how to merge configs, still with CMap::mergeArray() and/or require()?
How will you (automatically) configure an extension?

from yii2.

To be more precise, my proposal above is inspired by the idea of having shorthands for CMap::mergeArray() and require in the config, just to generate a cleaner config file.
