ApplicationContext
class ApplicationContext (View source)
The Flow Context object.
A Flow Application context is something like "Production", "Development", "Production/StagingSystem", and is set using the FLOW_CONTEXT environment variable.
A context can contain arbitrary sub-contexts, which are delimited with slash ("Production/StagingSystem", "Production/Staging/Server1"). The top-level contexts, however, must be one of "Testing", "Development" and "Production".
Mainly, you will use $context->isProduction(), $context->isTesting() and $context->isDevelopment() inside your custom code.
