Hi There,
I am trying to integrate a 3rd party API with CI and so far everything is going pretty well. There is one hang-up that I am running into however:
In order to run the API, I have to send it some configuration settings. The api is accessed from multiple controllers, and so I have decided to create a separate file in /config which contains these variables and then include it in these controllers.
Here is an example of what I have so far:
/application/config/api_config.php:
Code:
<?php if (!defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
$config['ID'] = '256562';
$config['keysDirectory'] ="/var/www/html/keys";
$config['sendToProduction']="false";
$config['enableLog']="true";
?>
Here is a function within controller which uses (includes) the variables above:
/application/controllers/apicontroller.php
Code:
function something()
{
//load the config file
$this->load->config('cybersource_config');
$request['something'] = "test123";
$reply = array();
//send info including config array from config file to the api
run_transaction( $config, $request, $reply );
redirect('home');
}
The problem I am having is that it seems like the $config variables are not being passed along to my controller. Any ideas?
