Project configuration

By On · Add Comment

I prefer initialising all my scripts through a bootstrap script that in turn reads a configuration file. I tend to re-use a common set of configuration parameters.

PLAIN TEXT
PHP:
  1. define('DEBUG_PROJECT', false);
  2. define('DISPLAY_ERRORS', true);</code>
  3.  
  4. /**
  5. * E-mail send/receive related
  6. * /
  7. define('EMAIL_CONTACT_ADDRESS', 'webmaster@mysite.com');
  8. define('EMAIL_SERVER_FROM_IDENTITY', 'MySite Webmaster');
  9. define('EMAIL_WEB_ADMINISTRATOR', 'admin@mysite.com');
  11. /**
  12. * Time-related
  13. */
  14.  
  15. //EOT - "end of time"
  16. //Sometimes (but rarely) I need to construct queries that search until the "end of time"
  17. define('EOT_TIMESTAMP', 2145790800);    //2038-01-01 00:00
  18. define('EOT_YEAR', 2037);
  19. define('EOT_MONTH', 12);
  20. define('EOT_DATE',31);
  21.  
  22. define('TIMEZONE', 'Australia/Sydney');
  23.  
  24. /**

  27. define('PROJECT_HTTP_HOST', 'http://www.mysite.com/');
