Add to global $config array - El Forum - 05-29-2009

Hey guys!
How would I add to the global config array?
I have an email config file and would like to add some default values in it so I can pick them up using $this->email->etc etc
Can it be done?
Thanks
Paul.

You can create another config file and access that via the config library, or you can just stick the data in your config.php file:
Code:
$config['email_settings'] = array(
'protocol' => 'sendmail',
'mailpath' => '/usr/sbin/sendmail',
'charset' => 'iso-8859-1',
'wordwrap' => TRUE
);Then you can grab the array like this:
Code:
$email_config = $this->config->item('email_settings');Add to global $config array - El Forum - 05-29-2009

I wish CI had a way to call array items using config->item().... something like
Code:
config->item('email_settings.protocol')Add to global $config array - El Forum - 05-29-2012

It does if you read.

I've read through that and I see no examples that require more than a single tier of nested array. It also appears to require the tier be named after the file.

You can always extend the class and make it do whatever you want.
