How to Access Config File Variables Globally in all Views ?

How to access config file variables Globally in all views without passing it from controller?

i have a config file : app/config/SiteConfig.php

PHP Code:

<?php namespace Config;

use CodeIgniter\Config\BaseConfig;

class SiteConfig extends BaseConfig
{
    public $siteName  = 'My Website';
    public $siteDomain  = 'www.example.com';
    public $siteUrl = 'http://www.example.com';
    public $siteSecureUrl = 'https://www.example.com';
    public $siteEmail = '[email protected]';

    /**
     * Google Site Verification & Maps Key
     */
    public $googleSiteVerificationKey  = '';
    public $googleMapsApiKey  = '';

    /**
     * Default Meta and Page Title info
     */
    public $defaultPageTitle = "";
    public $defaultMetaDesc = "";
    public $defaultMetaKeywords = "";
    public $defaultRobots = "";


} 


 
Now am passing it from controller like this

PHP Code:

<?php 
namespace App\Controllers\Backend;

use App\Controllers\Backend;
use App\Models\Backend\UserModel;

class Users extends Backend
{
    protected $userModel;

    public function __construct(){
    parent::__construct();
    $this->userModel = new UserModel();
    }

    /**
     * Function to display users list
     */
    public function index()
    {
    $data = array(
        'siteConfig' => $this->siteConfig
    );
    $data['users'] = $this->userModel->getUsers();

    echo view( 'backend/users/list', $data );
    }

    /**
     * Function to create user
     */
    public function createUser()
    {
    $data = array(
      'siteConfig' => $this->siteConfig
    );
    $data['groups'] = $this->userModel->getUserGroups();

    echo view( 'backend/users/new', $data );
    }
} 


Is there any better way to accomplish this without passing it from every controller methods?

Anything you load in BaseController will be available in all the controllers that extend it. There is also the helper function “config()” which not only fetches a config but can use it immediately, e.g.:

<a href=“https://google.com/maps?key=<?= config(‘SiteConfig’)->googleMapsApiKey ?>”>Click</a>

This is exactly what am looking for. Thank You so much.  

We must be require to define some global value for application like number of pagination records, user type, site url etc. if you are working with small project then walgreenslistens i will suggest to create global config file for define constants variable.
