Question

Is there a function like $pluginsDir = sfConfig::get('sf_config_dir'); (which returns configuration directory for overall) to get directory of the specific plugin.
Lets say I have directory structure something like:

project/
       config/
       plugins/
              myplugin/
                      config/

I want to get output /home/user_name/public_html/project/plugins/myplugin/config/

Answer 1

Symfony is shipped with a sf_plugins_dir which goes to /home/user_name/public_html/project/plugins but that’s all.

Solutions (which are almost the same) are :

1. build the path based on this config variable:

sfConfig::get('sf_plugins_dir').DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'myplugin'.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'config';

2. give it as myplugin config

In myplugin/config/app.yml:

all:
  myplugin:
    config_dir: %SF_PLUGINS_DIR%/myplugin/config

Then:

sfConfig::get('app_myplugin_config_dir');
