xPDO.getOption

xPDO::getOption¶

Get an xPDO configuration option value by key.

Syntax¶

API Docs: https://api.modx.com/revolution/2.2/db_core_xpdo_xpdo.class.html#\xPDO::getOption()

mixed getOption (string $key [, array|null $options [, mixed $default [, boolean $skipEmpty]]] )

$key: the key of the setting or option to load.

$options: the source of the setting or option. Either null (which attempts to find the key in the main configuration) or an array of options.

$default: the value to return when the key was not found.

$skipEmpty: when set to true, the $default will also be returned if the $key's value is an empty string. Added in xPDO 2.2.1 / MODX 2.2.0-rc2.

Examples¶

Get the table prefix:

$tablePrefix = $xpdo->getOption(xPDO::OPT_TABLE_PREFIX);

Get an option from a user-specified array, and if not set, check for it in $xpdo->config. If it's not set there, return false as its default value:

$mySetting = $xpdo->getOption('my_setting',$myConfig,false);
