This depends a bit on how your code is structured, and particularly how the different folders are related. One option would be to use a configuration variable to specify where the file(s) are located. Another one would be something like this:
My preference is to use a configuration variable when the data is from a separate source, and the __DIR__ method when it's part of the same source tree, because in that case you can be fairly sure that the relative structure will remain the same between deployments.
