CakePHP-ConfigReadShell
A CakePHP plugin that provides a Shell to read an app's Configure vars from the command line.
Installation
Use the following as a guide for choosing your version based on the version of CakePHP installed.
CakePHP | ConfigReadShell Plugin | Tag | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
^3.4 | master | 4.0.0 | stable |
3.3 | 3.3 | 3.0.0 | stable |
2.5 | 2.x | 2.0.1 | stable |
1.3 | 1.x | 1.0.1 | stable |
This will install the latest version.
Note: we don't expect to actively maintain or improve the 1.3 version. It's here because the project started life as a 1.3 Shell.
Requirements
- PHP 7.0+
- CakePHP 3.6.0+
Usage
Imagine the following defined in config/app.php
:
To use this plugin, call it from the command line:
Format as a bash variable definition
Note that this format is automatically used whenever more than one key is returned (unless the --serialize
switch has been used). For example, if you request a key that contains an array, all values in the array will be returned sequentially. Alternatively, if you pass multiple keys on the command line, they will all be returned. The format can also be forced using the -b
or --bash
command line switch:
Serializing output
It is possible serialize the output from ConfigReadShell so that it can be consumed by other PHP scripts more easily by using the -s
or --serialize
command line switch.
Requesting multiple keys on the command line will produce an array of those keys. Requesting a single scalar value will produce only that scalar value.
This switch always overrides both the --bash
switch and the Shell's automatic bash formatting.
Potential Gotchas
"Consumed" Configure Vars
CakePHP 3 by default "consumes" some of its configs so as not to confuse developers. Configure::consume()
removes the configuration key from Configure, making it unavailable to the rest of the app. At the time of this writing, it does this for the following keys/classes:
[Configure.Key] |
Class::configEnumerationMethod() |
Class::configFetchMethod() |
---|---|---|
[Cache] |
Cache::configured() |
Cache::getConfig() |
[Datasources] |
ConnectionManager::configured() |
ConnectionManager::getConfig() |
[EmailTransport] |
Email::configuredTransport() |
Email::getConfigTransport() |
[Email] |
Email::configured() |
Email::getConfig() |
[Log] |
Log::configured() |
Log::getConfig() |
[Security.salt] |
(none) | Security::getSalt() |
The ConfigReadShell devotes about half of its codebase dealing with this for you, allowing you to continue to fetch values using the Configure path (Datasources.default.host
-> localhost
) while in the background it is actually querying ConnectionManager::getConfig('default')['host']
. (This is particularly helpful if you are using Environment-Aware Configs.)
The "gotcha" here is that ConfigReadShell has to maintain a hard-coded list of Configure keys that are normally consumed, and how to access them in their new container. This is further complicated by the fact that not all consumed configs are loaded into or retrieved from their containers the same way, although the base assumption is that the container implements the StaticConfigTrait
and so will have ::getConfig()
and ::configured()
available.
:warning: If your app uses Configure::consume()
on any non-standard Configure key during bootstrapping, you will not be able to obtain any child values of those keys from the ConfigReadShell.
