<h1>Handling Multiple Environments</h1>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Developers often desire different system behavior depending on whether
|
||
|
|
an application is running in a development or production
|
||
|
|
environment. For example, verbose error output is something that would
|
||
|
|
be useful while developing an application, but it may also pose a security issue when "live".
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<h2>The ENVIRONMENT Constant</h2>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
By default, CodeIgniter comes with the environment constant set to
|
||
|
|
'<kbd>development</kbd>'. At the top of index.php, you will see:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<code>
|
||
|
|
define('<var>ENVIRONMENT</var>', '<var>development</var>');
|
||
|
|
</code>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
In addition to affecting some basic framework behavior (see the next section),
|
||
|
|
you may use this constant in your own development to differentiate
|
||
|
|
between which environment you are running in.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<h2>Effects On Default Framework Behavior</h2>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
There are some places in the CodeIgniter system where the <kbd>ENVIRONMENT</kbd>
|
||
|
|
constant is used. This section describes how default framework behavior is
|
||
|
|
affected.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<h3>Error Reporting</h3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Setting the <kbd>ENVIRONMENT</kbd> constant to a value of '<kbd>development</kbd>' will
|
||
|
|
cause all PHP errors to be rendered to the browser when they occur. Conversely,
|
||
|
|
setting the constant to '<kbd>production</kbd>' will disable all error output. Disabling
|
||
|
|
error reporting in production is a <a href="security.html">good security practice</a>.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<h3>Configuration Files</h3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Optionally, you can have CodeIgniter load environment-specific
|
||
|
|
configuration files. This may be useful for managing things like differing API keys
|
||
|
|
across multiple environments. This is described in more detail in the
|
||
|
|
environment section of the <a href="../libraries/config.html#environments">Config Class</a> documentation.
