$ composer require zakharov-andrew/yii2-settings

or add

"zakharov-andrew/yii2-settings": "*"

to the `requiresection of yourcomposer.json` file.

Subsequently, run

./yii migrate/up --migrationPath=@vendor/zakharov-andrew/yii2-settings/migrations

in order to create the settings table in your database.

Usage ¶

There are 2 parts to this extension. A module and a component. The module provides a simple GUI to edit your settings. The component provides a way to retrieve and save settings programmatically.

Add this to your main configuration's modules array

    'modules' => [
        'settings' => [
            'class' => 'ZakharovAndrew\settings\Module',
            'bootstrapVersion' => 5, // if use bootstrap 5
        ],
        // ...
    ],

Add this to your main configuration's components array

    'components' => [
        'settings' => [
            'class' => 'ZakharovAndrew\settings\Settings',
        ],
    ],

Add a new rule for urlManager of your application's configuration file, for example:

'urlManager' => [
    'rules' => [
        'settings' => 'settings/default/index',
        'settings/create' => 'settings/default/create',
        'settings/update' => 'settings/default/update',
        'settings/delete' => 'settings/default/delete',
        'setting-groups/create' => 'settings/setting-groups/create',
        'setting-groups/update' => 'settings/setting-groups/update',
        'setting-groups/delete' => 'settings/setting-groups/delete',
    ],
],

Typical component usage

$settings = Yii::$app->settings;

$valueList = $settings->get('group1');

$value = $settings->get('group1', 'key');

$settings->set('group1', 'key', 'value');

// Automatically called on set();
$settings->clearCache();
