configShallow() ¶ public
configShallow(array<string, mixed>|string $key, mixed|null $value = null): $this
Merge provided config with existing config. Unlike config()
which does
a recursive merge for nested keys, this method does a simple merge.
Setting a specific value:
$this->configShallow('key', $value);
Setting a nested value:
$this->configShallow('some.nested.key', $value);
Updating multiple config settings at the same time:
$this->configShallow(['one' => 'value', 'another' => 'value']);

array<string, mixed>|string
$key The key to set, or a complete array of configs.
-
mixed|null
$value optional The value to set.
Returns
$this
getConfig() ¶ public
getConfig(string|null $key = null, mixed $default = null): mixed
Returns the config.
Usage
Reading the whole config:
$this->getConfig();
Reading a specific value:
$this->getConfig('key');
Reading a nested value:
$this->getConfig('some.nested.key');
Reading with default value:
$this->getConfig('some-key', 'default-value');
Parameters
-
string|null
$key optional The key to get or null for the whole config.
-
mixed
$default optional The return value when the key does not exist.
Returns
mixed
getConfigOrFail() ¶ public
