如何在Laravel 4中使用数组中的If-else？

Question

I am using Laravel 4.

in app/config/prod/app.php

I have an array of things, laid out like this,

<?php

return array(

‘debug’ => “fault”

// and more ...

)

I want to set my default value to a different thing base on auth user type.

IF the user type is admin, I want to set the debug to true ELSE set it to false.

Can I do an if-else check within an array in PHP ?

I’ve tried using ternary operator, but no luck. I hope I didn’t do anything wrong.

isset( Auth::user()->type == “Admin” ) ? ‘debug’ => “true” : ‘debug’
 => “fault”

Thanks for your help in advance ! :)

Answer 1

What you can generally do is use the ternary operator for the value and not the full key value pair

'debug' => (Auth::user()->type == "Admin" ? true : false)

However, I'm not sure what is available when this config gets loaded (Auth::user() is probably not). Let me know if this works and I'll come back to you.

Update

A little test just confirmed my assumption. The Auth class is not available when config files get parsed. That means you will have to set the value afterwards. I suggest you leave the default to 'debug' => false and use this if the user is admin:

if(Auth::user()->type == 'Admin'){
    Config::set('app.debug', true)
}

You can do this wherever you want as long as it's "early enough". For example you can use the global App::before (in filters.php)

App::before(function($request){
    if(Auth::check() && Auth::user()->type == 'Admin'){
        Config::set('app.debug', true)
    }
});
