When to use this

When your components needs to be make us of some kind of configuration. Or if you component needs to make use of Laravel's specific configuration.

How to install

For Laravel version 5.0.x

```

!console

composer require aedart/laravel-config 1.0.* ```

This package uses composer. If you do not know what that is or how it works, I recommend that you read a little about, before attempting to use this package.

Quick start

Provided that you have an interface, e.g. for a command, you can extend the config-aware interface;

```

!php

<?php use Aedart\Laravel\Config\Interfaces\ConfigAware;

interface ICommand extends ConfigAware {

// ... Remaining interface implementation not shown ...

}

```

In your concrete implementation, you simple use the config-traits;

```

!php

<?php use Aedart\Laravel\Config\Traits\ConfigTrait;

class DoSomethingCommand implements ICommand {

use ConfigTrait;

// ... Remaining implementation not shown ... 

} ```

Default Configuration Repository instance

The ConfigTrait will by default return the current running Laravel configuration repository instance, if any is available, and provided that your component is running inside a Laravel application.

However, if none is available (not running inside a Laravel Application), a default empty Illuminate\Contracts\Config\Repository instance is returned instead.

Default Configuration Repository Validation

By default, the ConfigTrait will always assume that the specified configuration repository instance is valid. However, if you need to ensure that specific configuration has been set or certain entries are available, or some other kind of configuration-specific validation, then you can do so, by overriding the isConfigValid() method.

```

!php

<?php use Aedart\Laravel\Config\Traits\ConfigTrait; use Illuminate\Contracts\Config\Repository;

class DoSomethingCommand implements ICommand {

use ConfigTrait;

public function isConfigValid(Repository $repository){
    // In this example, a configuration repository is only valid
    // if there is a database.default entry
    return $repository->has('database.default'));
}

// ... Remaining implementation not shown ... 

} ```
