Config Service¶
Simple Example¶
This service will read items from a config file. By default all add-ons have a
config directory located at ./config/
relative to their addon.setup.php
file.
To fetch items from your config simply do:
ee('Config')->get('my_addon:my_config.my_item');
Note
This does not replace ee()->config
