TalkPHP - View Single Post - Most efficient way of storing database configurations?

bdm · 11-26-2007, 08:20 PM

So i have 3-4 databases which I need to access within the same application. I know I should be storing the database configurations in a config.php file (which I have). The way I'll be accessing these is when I create a new database object, I'd like to specify which credentials to use.

So essentially, I'd like to be able to do something along these lines:

PHP Code:


			
$serverName = DatabaseFactory::factory('mysql', $databaseName);

Or if someone knows of a better way, let me know.

Thank you. :)
