#5681: Enabling a seperate bootstrap.php for every plugin
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------

Version: RC3 | Severity: Normal

--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
By default cakephp does not load any config files when executing a plugin.
This is very unhandy because you might want to set some vars like version
or mail address for a particular plugin.
So you can modify the bootstrap.php of the main app to enabling such
values or you can add a way to include plugin-bootstraps by default.
Zaboo of the irc-channel showed me a way on how to do the 2nd (better) way
by including this in the main app's bootstrap.php or routes.php
{{{
/* I placed this in the bottom of my /app/config/routes.php to include
all the routes for all my separate plugins. You could do something simular
for the config
*/
uses('Folder');
$pf = new Folder(APP . 'plugins');
list($pluginFolders, $pluginFiles) = $pf->read();
foreach($pluginFolders as $folder) {
$file = APP . 'plugins' . DS . $folder . DS . 'config' . DS .
'bootstrap.php';
if(is_file($file)) {
require_once($file);
}
}
}}}
As you can see this way all existing files named bootstrap.php in a
'''plugins/<pluginname>/config/''' folder will be included.
I think this is a feature for more mobile plugins as we dont have to
change the main app anymore when "installing" a plugin. So, dear cake-
team, please make it a core-feature so nobody has to paste the function in
the main app's bootstrap anymore.
