Question

I am using CodeIgniter, i want to auto load the email config file and use in my controllers, libraries.

I added email config to config/autoload.php

<?php if (!defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
/*
...some code ...
*/
$autoload['libraries'] = array(
  'database',
  'session',
  'locale',
  'util/ScriptLoader',
  'activity/Message',
  'Auth_lib',
  'email'
);

my config/email.php

<?php if (!defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
/*
...some code ...
*/
$config['useragent']       = "CodeIgniter";
$config['mailpath']        = "/usr/bin/sendmail"; // or "/usr/sbin/sendmail"
$config['protocol']        = "mail";
$config['smtp_host']       = "localhost";
$config['smtp_user']       = "";
$config['smtp_pass']       = "";
$config['smtp_port']       = "25";
$config['system_email']    = "[e-mail]";
$config['help_email']      = "[e-mail]";
$config['inquiries_email'] = "[e-mail]";
$config['support_email']   = "[e-mail]";

i tried to get support_email value in my controller using

$this->config->item('support_email')

but not working, how to get the auto-loaded values in controller? please help

Answer 1

You need to autoload config files under: $autoload['config'] = 'email';
