You can use Loading custom config file :-

After create custom config file we need to load it get it’s items. for load custom config we have two ways.

  1. Manual loading :- we can manual load config file in controller/model like

     $this->config->load('file_name'); //or use custom_config instead of file_name

where “file_name” is your custom config file name without .php extension.

  1. Autoloading :- for auto load config file go to “application/config/autoload.php” and add code in $autoload[‘config’]

    $autoload['config'] = array('config_custom'); //where config_custom is your file name.

Make a new config file application/config/config1.php.with

$config['encryption_key'] = 'my_key';

Now load it form application/config/autoload.php as below:

$autoload['config'] = array('config1');
