ZF2 - Can I load modules from `development.config.php` first?

I want to load ghislainf/zf2-whoops only on development environments, but it says I have to load it first (meaning in application.config.php).

Is there a way to load development.config.php modules first?

UPDATE:

I'm loading the env variables using abacaphiliac/zend-phpdotenv, meaning the env variables are not loaded yet by the time the application.config.php is being processed. For this reason I can't use dynamic loading based on environment. That's the reason I was looking to load development modules first.

You can easily setup different configuration files for different environments. So one configuration for development and a different one for production.

This is very well described in the Zend Framework documentation chapter called Advanced Configuration Tricks and more specifically here in Environment-specific system configuration:

The trick they use is to set the APP_ENV global variable and set it to either production or development.

<?php
$env = getenv('APP_ENV') ?: 'production';

// Use the $env value to determine which modules to load
$modules = array(
    'Application',
);
if ($env == 'development') {
    $modules[] = 'ZendDeveloperTools';
}

When using this solution you can in each config load the modules that you need in the order that you need them.
