Configuration

Information on retrieving and setting configuration items can be found on the config page.

Configuration files contain an array named $config. Keys of this array are the actual configuration items e.g.

Example

$config['site_domain'] = 'localhost/';

The file structure of config files follows Kohana's file structure.

application > modules > system

Meaning that configuration files in the application directory take precedence over those in modules take precedence over those in the system directory. The one exception is config.php which is hardcoded into the application/config directory and cannot be moved elsewhere.

Config.php is hardcoded into Kohana, meaning it has to be in the application/config directory.

/*
 * Options:
 *  site_domain          - domain and installation directory
 *  site_protocol        - protocol used to access the site, usually HTTP
 *  index_page           - name of the front controller, can be removed with URL rewriting
 *  url_suffix           - an extension that will be added to all generated URLs
 *  allow_config_set     - enable or disable setting of Config items
 *  global_xss_filtering - enable or disable XSS attack filtering on all user input
 *  render_stats         - render the statistics information in the final page output
 *  extension_prefix     - filename prefix for library extensions
 *  modules              - extra Kohana resource paths, see <Kohana.find_file>
 *  autoload             - libraries and models to be loaded with the controller
