Config files aren't discovered automatically when using the config() function.

[bvrignaud]

I'm actually porting the Ion-Auth (3) to CI4.
You can have look to the wip here : https://github.com/bvrignaud/CodeIgniter-Ion-Auth/tree/4.
I'm based on Code Modules documentation.

As the documentation explain :

Config files are automatically discovered whenever using the config() function that is always available.

I have a config file in my module_directory/Config.
In my library / model / controller, I'm trying to load my config file with config('IonAuth')
But it can't be load.
It works only if I put my config file in application/Config.

Thanks

CodeIgniter 4 version

Where does the namespace point to? The way the scanning works is to look at the directory the namespace represents, like Modules/IonAuth and look for Config/{file}.php there. In this case that would be Modules/IonAuth/Config/{file}.php

If you including the package through Composer, the namespace would still have to be defined in application/Config/Autoload.php to work.

I think I hadn't understood well the documentation.
As you can see, I had code it like this : bvrignaud/CodeIgniter-Ion-Auth@72509bf
My first idea was to make something like this and if the final developer want to configure special settings, he have to duplicate the config file in the application/Config directory. And that doesn't works.
But, as I saw, we can set settings in .env file. So It's Ok.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
