$isPublic  : bool
Whether this key may go out to the client.

Methods

__construct()  : mixed
callInitMethods()  : void
Calls `init{TraitName}()` for every used trait that defines such a method.
getAllTraits()  : array<string, string>
Returns all traits the class uses, including those used by parent classes and nested traits.
getId()  : array{module: int, key: string}
Setting has no surrogate id, the identity is the composite (`module` + `key`). The generic save layer (Manager/Service/Repository {@see \App\Core\Traits\Api\Models\Repositories\SaveTrait}) expects `getId()` and `isPersisted()` (otherwise `IdentifiableTrait`). Returns the composite identity as a property-to-value array so that `EntityManager::find()` accepts it and finds the existing row. The cache layer supports `int|array $id`.
getKey()  : string
getModule()  : int
getValue()  : string
isPersisted()  : bool
Settings are always an upsert by (module, key): rows are pre-seeded (neon `%params%` plus db override). `true` makes the repository `save()` try `find()` and update; when the row does not exist yet, it falls through to insert. Correct in both cases.
isPublic()  : bool
setIsPublic()  : $this
setKey()  : $this
setModule()  : $this
setValue()  : $this
getTraitsRecursive()  : array<string, string>
Walks the trait list recursively and collects nested traits too.

Properties

$isPublic

Whether this key may go out to the client.

protected bool $isPublic = false

Fail-closed: the default is false in both PHP and the db (not null default 0, docs/sql/2026-08-04_10_setting_public_flag.sql). A newly inserted key is private, so a future email.smtp.password does not leak silently but only after a deliberate switch.

Controls exclusively what :Api:System:Setting:getPublicMerged returns (and so what goes to the front end over the wire). getMerged / getAll are admin-only and ignore the flag: it filters what is returned, not who calls.

Named is_public (not public): public is reserved since MySQL 8.0.31, and is_* matches the schema convention (is_default, is_company, is_managed).

callInitMethods()

Calls `init{TraitName}()` for every used trait that defines such a method.

public callInitMethods() : void

getAllTraits()

Returns all traits the class uses, including those used by parent classes and nested traits.

The generic save layer (Manager/Service/Repository {@see \App\Core\Traits\Api\Models\Repositories\SaveTrait}) expects `getId()` and `isPersisted()` (otherwise `IdentifiableTrait`). Returns the composite identity as a property-to-value array so that `EntityManager::find()` accepts it and finds the existing row. The cache layer supports `int|array $id`.
