Loading the Configuration into the Store
Lab: Reusable Meta Box Module
Video Runtime: 16:04
Let’s test and figure out how to load a configuration file from the filesystem and get it into our configuration store. We’ll do this together step-by-step, systematically discovering how to load, how to extract the store key and configuration parameters, and thinking through our store.
Warning
This episode teaches architecture, API, and PHP array functions. I’ll show you different ways of accomplishing the exact same thing.
If you are not interested in diving into these concepts, you can copy and paste the final ConfigStore solution into your project, skip over the rest of the config store episodes, and move on to the rest of the meta box module.
