dotenv

This library is an extension of Dotenv that grants you the ability to update variables into the .env file. You can either update, append or remove a variable.

Requirements

PHP 7.1 and later.

Installation

You can install it via Composer by typing the following command:

composer require railken/dotenv

Usage

A simple usage looks like:

use Railken\Dotenv\Dotenv;

// Location of the directory that contains the .env file
$path = __DIR__; 

$dotenv = new Dotenv($path);
$dotenv->load();

$dotenv->updateVariable("APP_KEY", "foo");
$dotenv->appendVariable("NEW_KEY", 2);
$dotenv->removeVariable("NEW_KEY");

The class Railken\Dotenv\Dotenv simply extends the class Dotenv\Dotenv as you can see here

If you wish you can use directly the Railken\Dotenv\Storage

use Railken\Dotenv\Storage;

// Location of the directory that contains the .env file
$path = __DIR__; 

$storage = new Storage($path);
$storage->update("APP_KEY", "foo");
$storage->append("NEW_KEY", 2);
$storage->remove("NEW_KEY");
