CakePHP DynamicDatabaseConfig Plugin for more flexible handle datasource configs

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

### Step 1: Clone or download to `Plugin/DynamicDatabaseConfig`

[](#step-1-clone-or-download-to-plugindynamicdatabaseconfig)

cd my\_cake\_app/app git://github.com/imsamurai/CakePHP-DynamicDatabaseConfig.git Plugin/DynamicDatabaseConfig

or if you use git add as submodule:

```
cd my_cake_app
git submodule add "git://github.com/imsamurai/CakePHP-DynamicDatabaseConfig.git" "app/Plugin/DynamicDatabaseConfig"

```

then update submodules:

```
git submodule init
git submodule update

```

### Step 2: Extend your DATABASE\_CONFIG

[](#step-2-extend-your-database_config)

```
:: database.php ::

```

```
App::uses('DynamicDatabaseConfig', 'DynamicDatabaseConfig.Config');
class DATABASE_CONFIG extends DynamicDatabaseConfig {
	//class items
}
```

Then make configs that you want to be dynamically loaded (when class instance will be created)

```
:: database.php ::

```

```
App::uses('DynamicDatabaseConfig', 'DynamicDatabaseConfig.Config');
class DATABASE_CONFIG extends DynamicDatabaseConfig {
	//can't start with _ and must be public
	public defaultPublic() {
		return array(/* config data, like in property-config */);
	}
}
```

### Step 3: Load plugin

[](#step-3-load-plugin)

```
:: bootstrap.php ::

```

```
CakePlugin::load('DynamicDatabaseConfig');
```

\##Usage

Once you add public methods in your DATABASE\_CONFIG they will be automatically assigned to public property with same name. Now you can easily make new configs based on part of existing configs. Your old property-based configs will work as usual, unless you create method with same name.

\##Advanced usage

There exist simple dynamic rename of configs. Assume you want add default config, config for test and public enviroument. In your models used `default` config and you have information about is this public or test, for ex. constant `IS_PUBLIC_INSTALLATION`. In this case you need to add 3 configs, allow renaming and make renaming action:

```
:: database.php ::

```

```
App::uses('DynamicDatabaseConfig', 'DynamicDatabaseConfig.Config');
class DATABASE_CONFIG extends DynamicDatabaseConfig {

	//allow to rename configs
	const APPLY_NAMING_SCHEMA = true;

	//default config
	public default() {
		return array(/* config data, like in property-config */);
	}

	//public config
	public defaultPublic() {
		return array(/* config data, like in property-config */);
	}

	/local config
	public defaultLocal() {
		return array(/* config data, like in property-config */);
	}

	/* Method that will get each existing config name and try to rename it
	 * if $configName will not equals to returned value then
	 * config with returned value name will be erased with data from $configName
     *
	 * In case of current method if IS_PUBLIC_INSTALLATION is true
	 * `default` config gets data from `defaultPublic` otherwise from `defaultLocal`
	 */
	protected function _renameConfig($configName) {
		$postfix = IS_PUBLIC_INSTALLATION ? 'Public' : 'Local';
		return preg_replace('/(.*)' . $postfix . '$/', '\1', $configName);
	}
}
```
