Config files in modules - ZoeF - 03-12-2021
Hello
I am wondering what the best practices are for adding specific modules configs. I followed the documentation but it seems I am either missing something or it does not work all the time.
In app > Config > Modules.php you can add $aliases. Yet when I add constants to this array it does not get loaded.
So in retrospect what is the best way of adding configs that they are sertan to be loaded.
RE: Config files in modules - InsiteFX - 03-12-2021
The modules namespace should be added to CodeIgniters Config/Autoload.php
RE: Config files in modules - ZoeF - 03-13-2021
Yes I know and I also did that. Stil the Constants.php is not beeing loaded.
PHP Code:
'Modules/Admin' => ROOTPATH . 'modules/admin', // The Admin Module
'Modules/Users' => ROOTPATH . 'modules/users', // The User Module
Or is it required to also add the modules Config path to this list?

I use a Config file for all my constants and place it in the modules folder under config then I
can load it myself.
But if you add your constants to the Config/Constants.php file they should load.
RE: Config files in modules - ZoeF - 03-13-2021
What I did is the following
>modules >Admin >Config -Constants.php
added my required constants
But when I try to use them in the specific module
ErrorException
Use of undefined constant ADMIN_TEST - assumed 'ADMIN_TEST'
