Unknown dependency Yii::$app->settings

[boehmi1988]

The code uses calls to Yii::$app->settings in different places, but Yii::$app->settings is not a native Yii2 component, so it crashes with
Exception (Unknown Property) 'yii\base\UnknownPropertyException' with message 'Getting unknown property: yii\web\Application::settings'

On which lib / extension does the code rely here? can it be added to composer.json ?

Hi :)

thanks for reporting. indeed that is a non native component.

Yii::$app->settings in this case relies on https://github.com/phemellc/yii2-settings.

As a quick fix you can simply add

"pheme/yii2-settings": "*"

to your composer.json.

@schmunk42 @handcode what do you think ? Should we remove the dependency from code or add the settings module to the project?

Thanks in advance :)

Yeah, we'll take a look, but will be likely next year or you can come up with a PR, which makes this configurable or "use-when-installed".

The dependency should be in suggest in composer.json in the end.
