Example

// Getting, modifying and saving module config data
$data = $modules->getConfig('HelloWorld');

$modules->saveConfig('HelloWorld', $data);

// Getting just one property 'apiKey' from module config data
@apiKey = $modules->getConfig('HelloWorld', 'apiKey');

Usage

// basic usage
$array = $modulesConfigs->getConfig($class);

// usage with all arguments
$array = $modulesConfigs->getConfig($class, string $property = '');
