$c = Conf::getInstance();
$property = $c['some.property'];

or simply -, _(*2)

Conf::init('/path');
$property = Conf::get('some.property');

Defaults can be used here too -, _(*3)

$property = Conf::get('some.property', 'default value');

Config File

Properties

YAML arrays are delimited in the property key using periods., _(*5)

properties.yml:, _(*6)

    property: hello world
