在composer软件包中查找项目根目录

Question

I'm trying to provide potential locations of a config file within my package: .config.yml

At present, I've loaded an array within one of my classes with some typical locations:

protected $configDirectories = [
    './',
    './config',
    './app/config',
    './config',
    './vendor/name/packagename/config'
];

Problem is; my package is loaded into ./vendor/name/packagename and of course, ./ doesn't know how to get to the project root.

The aim is to allow users of this package to just drop .config.yml into any of the pre-specified directories and it should be picked up. How can I achieve this?

I had a similar situation. In my case, the front-end controller was in ./ . So, I required the user of my package to do something like ...

\Wonderful\Package\Init::setRootDirectory(__DIR__);

(But I eventually decided that instead of having magic search order happening under the covers to locate the config file, I ended up having the one (or more) config files specified explicitly (can be anywhere with any name) ...

\Wonderful\Package\Init::loadConfigFile(__DIR__.'/config.yml');
\Wonderful\Package\Init::loadConfigFile(__DIR__.'/config.DEV-overrides.yml');

If you want to give the user the ability to configure your bundle, you MUST do it via semantic configuration and not via a specified and own config file. Do it the Symfony way.
