Hi Madhawa, Does PHP have native datasource support? For example[1]. I am -1 on doing it through Java. We must look at how PHP community does it. First thing is to see how PHP community uses databases in apps.
If they do have a native datasource concept we have to use it. If that is not available second option is using variables and calling registry via REST APIs. thanks, dimuthu [1] http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/models/datasources.html On Thu, Aug 21, 2014 at 7:17 PM, Manjula Rathnayake <manju...@wso2.com> wrote: > Hi Madhawa, > > We can keep these variables(string $dsn , string $user , string > $password) in registry and use registry rest API to get values at runtime. > So when you promote the application to Test and Production environments, > application will pick the environment specific values.
