Settings plugin for CakePHP 4 plugins - is there something?

Plugins

Hi,

I was checking this plugin page https://plugins.cakephp.org/
Surprisingly I didn’t find any plugin which is for version 4. Many of the plugins haven’t been updated for 5+ years.

I am looking for a settings plugin running under CakePHP 4.x - is there something or may I write something on my own?

Hi @PeterVARGA,

I don’t know what you mean by Settings plugin but here’s an link of CakePHP plugins where you can find plugins properly categorised.

Thank you @ishan

With Settings I mean a plugin which handles the task regarding settings.

  1. Loading settings from a database table.
  2. Saving the modified settings back to the database.

I didn’t find anything but I have the feeling there must be something and I don’t want to reinvent the wheel again regarding the settings management.

I don’t know if there is a plugin for that. But the framework provides a way to extend the configuration engine

You may use that to create you custom config that read/writes to database. Just register then engine in bootstrap after database is configured
