Magento setup-script auto generator for system config settings

This is the Magento 1 extension. For the Magento 2 version, please see https://github.com/c3limited/magento2-configsetuphelper

Automatically creates a setup script for selected options in system configuration page.

It's great to be able to try out settings on a development/staging environment before going live, but to ensure that the live site safely ends up with the same settings, and any other developers also have matching details, we create setup scripts to set config settings.

This is tedious and time-consuming, so why not automate it? Enabling this module will take out the drudgery of setting config settings by hand or writing manual setup scripts by letting you visually pick the settings you want and creating a setup script for you.

How it works: When enabled, adds check-boxes next to each entry in the system config view. By checking some of these and hitting save, you are presented with the complete code to set these options via a setup script including startSetup and endSetup.

Features:

  • Simple to use: Just check the boxes to the left of labels in system config and hit save
  • Speed up development - ready to copy and paste into a setup script and save
  • Works with any extension that displays options in the system config
  • Self-commenting: Gives section and group names to aid visibility
  • NEW: Notes can be added to any field via the (i) icons at the end of lines. They can be removed by editing them and removing the contents.

Note that there are some settings in Paypal that aren’t currently outputting correctly. We are looking into this for the next version.
