I have a file I am using as a PHP to act as a config file to store info that might need to be changed frequently. I return the array as an object, like so:
return (object) array(
"host" => array(
"URL" => "https://thomas-smyth.co.uk"
),
"dbconfig" => array(
"DBHost" => "localhost",
"DBPort" => "3306",
"DBUser" => "thomassm_sqlogin",
"DBPassword" => "SQLLoginPassword1234",
"DBName" => "thomassm_CadetPortal"
),
"reCaptcha" => array(
"reCaptchaURL" => "https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify",
"reCaptchaSecretKey" => "IWouldNotBeSecretIfIPostedItHere"
)
);
In my classes I have a constructor to call this: private $config;
function __construct(){
$this->config = require('core.config.php');
}
And the use it like:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, http_build_query(array('secret' => $this->config->reCaptcha->reCaptchaSecretKey, 'response' => $StrToken)));
However, I am given the error:
[18-Apr-2017 21:18:02 UTC] PHP Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in /home/thomassm/public_html/php/lib/CoreFunctions.php on line 21
I don't understand why this is happening considering the thing is returned as an object and it seemed to work for other people, as I got this idea from another question. Any suggestions?
