external config file for homepresenter

kolaloka

I need to create an external config file where a web admin can change some variables. I do not know how to set the /path/to/my/config/

Also where to put it and how to use the variables in presenter functions?
My idea is something like this:

config.php:

<?php
$ds = something;
$identity1 = something_else;
$identity2 = something_else;
$password = secretpassword;
?>

HomePresenter.php:

<?php
...
include /path/to/my/config/config.php

private function connectionOne{
$bind = ldap_bind($ds, $identity1, $password);
}

private function connectionTwo{
$bind = ldap_bind($ds, $identity2, $password);
}
...
?>

Please, help.

You can save these variables into database and fetch them when needed.

Unfortunately not. They want a plain file to be able to configure themselves. Can nette do that?

OK, then you can use neon file, or php script or other format…
Only thing you should do is to load that configuration file(s) in bootstrap.php [https://doc.nette.org/…on/bootstrap#…]
like this

$configurator->addConfig('config.neon');

And put there some parameters
like this

parameters:
	ldap:
		user: xxx
		password: yyy
		host: abc
