I am developing a custom package where I need an access to the config data. I was able to pull data from config through my blade files, however, when I tried to call it from any custom classes I made, it's throwing an error:
Error: Call to undefined function Acme\Package\config()
What's interesting though, is that, when I tried using the facade Illuminate\Support\Facades\Config, it cannot find the class.
Is there any way I could retrieve data from the config (from the package and/or the app)?
<?php
namespace Acme\Package;
class MyClass {
public function test() {
config('app.name');
}
}
UPDATE: It works when running in the browser (package installed in a Laravel project) but fails when running package's test
UPDATE: If this helps, my package can be found here
Call to the config() is from here
And the test case that fails can be found here
<?php
namespace Acme\Package;
class MyClass {
public function test() {
\Illuminate\Support\Facades\Config::get('app.name');
}
}
Try like this, to use the full namespace to the Config Facade. You could also make a use statement under your namespace to inject the facade and then use Config::get('app.name). The reason it is not working is that your package cannot resolve the namespace of that facade as it is outside of the IoC container
You should try this:
<?php
namespace Acme\Package;
use Config;
class MyClass {
public function test() {
Config::get('app.name');
}
}

Please add below line in config/app.php in aliases section
'Config' => Illuminate\Support\Facades\Config::class,
then run below command
php artisan config:cache
php artisan cache:clear
