Externalisation of ini config file

[lcotonea]

Hi!

To simplify our deployment, we need to have the ini config file in an external directory. This directory must:

• to be a directory that is not hard coded in our web app
• to be a directory that is not overriden during a new deployment of the application

So we have decided to use the include_path variable value to do that.

The pulled code contains a code hack in EpiConfig.php on the load method. When we search the ini config file, we firstly scan all directories present in the include_path, and after that we scan the directory given by Epi mechanism (Epi::getPath).

Note: commits #5e038e9 and #5e2aa7a is a rollback of commits #0d0ce39, #2d6f439 and #2699df2

Best regards

L.C.

Hi! Is there a problem with my request?

I see how some of these changes could be useful for your deployment. I am not by any means a leader of this project, but one of the aspects that attracted me to it was the simplicity: concise code and freedom. I personally wouldn't be interested in the use of maven in the master branch with this project, as I would like the freedom to use whatever I want for build management (or nothing at all).

Ok it's a mistake from me. In fact, on my project I'm using PHP-maven and my pull request is polluted. However, my modification about ini configuration is independent of the use of PHP-maven. Do you want that I push a clean pull request with the right code without PHP-maven context?

That would be ideal

I am also uncertain what you have done to externalize the "ini config file". You're able to set the path to a config resource any path you want already. Some examples of what you have done allows you to do differently would be nice.

@lcotonea If you'd like to resubmit the pull request or provide an example per the last comment that would help. Thanks for this pull request.

@jmathai I hope to do that closely.
