Solution 1 - Php
You can easily add a new file to the config folder. This file should return configuration values. Check other config files for reference. Say constants.php
is like so
<?php
return array(
'pagination' => array(
'items_per_page' => 10
),
);
You can now access this config file from anywhere by either using the Config Facade or the config()
global function like so
Config::get('constants.pagination.items_per_page');
or
config('constants.pagination.items_per_page');
i.e.
config('file_name.variable_name');

I don't know how many times one might need to create a config file, but here you have an Artisan command for it: https://gist.github.com/jotaelesalinas/eafd831048ca5fb5fba970afd1921f70
