Separate path for Element API plugin

Question

Is it possible to have a dev version path for the Element API plugin so we can keep live and dev API separated?

Answer 1

Craft config files usually allow to return environment-specific arrays. So you could just configure different endpoints like so:

return [
    '*' => [],
    '.com' => [
        'endpoints' => [
            'api/example<ext:(.json)?>' => function() {
                // example API config for live environment
            },
        ],
    ],
    '.dev' => [
        'endpoints' => [
            'api/example<ext:(.json)?>' => function() {
                // example API config for dev environment
            },
        ],
    ],
];

Doh so the answer is PHP constants:

define('CRAFT_CONFIG_PATH', '../../craftdev/config/');

useful to know.
