Folded is a constellation of packages to help you setting up a web app easily, using ready to plug in packages. - [folded/action](https://github.com/folded-php/action): A way to organize your controllers for your web app. - [folded/config](https://github.com/folded-php/config): Configuration and environment utilities for your PHP web app. - [folded/crypt](https://github.com/folded-php/crypt): Encrypt and decrypt strings for your web app. - [folded/exception](https://github.com/folded-php/exception): Various kind of exception to throw for your web app. - [folded/history](https://github.com/folded-php/history): Manipulate the browser history for your web app. - [folded/http](https://github.com/folded-php/http): HTTP utilities for your web app. - [folded/orm](https://github.com/folded-php/orm): An ORM for you web app. - [folded/request](https://github.com/folded-php/request): Request utilities, including a request validator, for your PHP web app. - [folded/routing](https://github.com/folded-php/routing): Routing functions for your PHP web app. - [folded/session](https://github.com/folded-php/session): Session functions for your web app. - [folded/view](https://github.com/folded-php/view): View utilities for your PHP web app. Features -------- [](#features) - Can get configuration or `.env` values (using dot syntax) - Can check if a configuration or an env value exist - Eager load the configuration, such as it is only booted when you get a configuration or an env value Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - PHP version >= 7.4.0 - Composer installed Installation ------------ [](#installation) - [1. Install the package](#1-install-the-package) - [2. Set up the library](#2-set-up-the-library) ### 1. Install the package [](#1-install-the-package) In your project root directory, run this command: ``` composer require folded/config ``` ### 2. Set up the library [](#2-set-up-the-library) Right before getting the config or env values, integrate this script: ``` use function Folded\setConfigFolderPath; use function Folded\setEnvFolderPath; setEnvFolderPath(__DIR__); setConfigFolderPath(__DIR__ . "/config"); ``` You don't have to set up both if you only want to use one or the other. However, if you plan to use both, make sure that `setEnvFolderPath()` is called before `setConfigFolderPath()` in order to take advantage of env variables in configurations. The env folder path is the folder that contains your `.env` file. Examples -------- [](#examples) Since this library uses vlucas/phpdotenv for the env feature, you can learn more on this file format [in the documentation](https://github.com/vlucas/phpdotenv). - [1.

Checking if a configuration exist](#3-checking-if-a-configuration-exist) - [4. Check if an env value exist](#4-check-if-an-env-value-exist) - [5. Get all config variables](#5-get-all-config-variables) ### 1. Getting a configuration value [](#1-getting-a-configuration-value) In this example, we will get a configuration value. ``` use function Folded\getConfig; echo getConfig("app.name"); ``` Asuming your configuration file is located at `config/app.php`, and contains: ``` return [ "name" => "Folded", ]; ``` ### 2. Getting an env value [](#2-getting-an-env-value) In this example, we will get a value stored in the `.env` file. ``` echo Folded\getEnv("APP_NAME"); ``` Asuming your `.env` file contains: ``` APP_NAME="Your app name" ``` ### 3. Checking if a configuration exist [](#3-checking-if-a-configuration-exist) In this example, we will check if a configuration key exist. ``` use function Folded\hasConfig; if (hasConfig("app.name")) { echo "config exist"; } else { echo "config don't exist"; } ``` ### 4. Check if an env value exist [](#4-check-if-an-env-value-exist) In this example, we will check if an env variable exist. ``` use function Folded\hasEnv; if (hasEnv("APP_NAME")) { echo "has env"; } else { echo "has not env"; } ``` ### 5. Get all config variables [](#5-get-all-config-variables) In this example, we will get all the key/values inside the config file `app.php`. ``` use function Folded\getAllConfig; $app = getAllConfig("app"); echo $app["name"]; ``` Version support --------------- [](#version-support) 7.37.48.0v0.1.0❌✔️❓v0.1.1❌✔️❓v0.1.2❌✔️❓v0.1.3❌✔️❓v0.1.4❌✔️❓v0.1.5❌✔️❓ ### Health Score 23 — LowBetter than 27% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity6 Limited adoption so far Community7 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity49 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
