Global variables

Create a config file? What do you want to do? What is your use case here?

I just have a bunch of strings to keep them in an array in a config file rather than in some controller or class. What I want to do is the equivalent of creating a file cfg.php in the config directory on laravel and returning an array with some key and then access it in the controller with

Config::get('cfg.key');

So far it won't work that way in lumen though.

I believe the last replies will fix it for you!

// Sample code
$app->configure('myConfigFile');

// Now you can use it like this
Config::get('myConfigFile.variable');
