Re: [achievo] Module - configuration





If I want to include a config.inc.php-file specifig for a module that I'm writing;
a) where shoule I put it physically
b) how should I name the config-file
c) where and with what command should i include it
My module is named "vacation".

Good question. I don't have a provision yet for module specific configfiles. I put them in my general configfile, so I need only keep 1 configfile when upgrading to a new version.


But let's have a short discussion about it. What would be a good way to do it?

Maybe like this:

create a configs/ directory in the achievo directory, with for each module a configfile, with the name modulename.inc.php.

Advantage is that you have all configs in one place.
Disadvantages:
- when installing a module, you would have to put the configfile in place yourself, since we don't have a module installer yet.
- when upgrading the software, you should keep your configfile AND the configs/ directory.


What do you think?


I think that all files related to one module should be placed in one directory. But it's most a philosophical question, I guess. Either way works fine with me at least.
