Instructions
Usage
When you install the module, it will create some example tokens, that you can see under /admin/help/token
At the moment, there is no UI to manage the custom tokens, but we will prioritise it. We have started Config Token UI module.
If you want to add your custom tokens, the easiest way of doing it is by exporting (/admin/config/development/configuration/single/export)
config_token.settings.yml and copying it to your sync directory. Then you can make the edits and commit the file.
To export the values for the custom tokens, create config_token.tokens.yml.
Working with Domain Access module
All you need to do to override the custom token configuration per domain is to create a config file with this pattern:
domain.config.[domain alias].config_token.tokens.yml
See https://www.drupal.org/project/domain
Working with Token Filter
You can use Token filter module to render tokens on the fields.
See https://www.drupal.org/project/token_filter

Token Custom: The difference is the storage. Token custom has a custom table to store configuration, which means, if we want to deploy custom tokens programatically, we need to insert rows into the table, whereas Config Token allows you to export and import using Configuration manager.
