if attempting to clobber existing config
_configRead() protected
_configRead(string|null $key): mixed
Reads a config key.
Parameters
string|null
$key-
Key to read.
Returns
mixed
_configWrite() protected
_configWrite(array<string, mixed>|string $key, mixed $value, string|bool $merge = false): void
Writes a config key.
Parameters
array<string, mixed>|string
$key-
Key to write to.
mixed
$value-
Value to write.
string|bool
$merge optional-
True to merge recursively, 'shallow' for simple merge, false to overwrite, defaults to false.

if attempting to clobber existing config
_format() protected
_format(string $message, array $context = []): string
Formats the message to be logged.
The context can optionally be used by log engines to interpolate variables or add additional info to the logged message.

$this->configShallow('key', $value);
Setting a nested value:
$this->configShallow('some.nested.key', $value);
Updating multiple config settings at the same time:

Parameters
array<string, mixed>|string
$key-
The key to set, or a complete array of configs.
mixed|null
$value optional-
The value to set.
