Informations about the package kirby3-dotenv
Kirby DotEnv
Kirby Plugin for environment variables from .env files
Installation
- unzip master.zip as folder
site/plugins/kirby3-dotenv
or git submodule add https://github.com/bnomei/kirby3-dotenv.git site/plugins/kirby3-dotenv
orcomposer require bnomei/kirby3-dotenv
Usage
Create a .env
file in the root of your Kirby installation. Within your Kirby project you can access the environment variables using various PHP helper functions.
in production or with default environment
Based on an environment like
/site/config/config.php
Kirby configuration file and given a/.env
file.
/.env
on local or staging test server
You can also create files to have different settings for different environments. The plugin will try to automatically load the correct file based on the environment.
Based on an environment like
- http://dotenv.test matching a
/site/config/config.dotenv.test.php
Kirby configuration file and given a/.env.dotenv.test
file.
/.env.dotenv.test
Default values
In case you want to provide a default value as fallback in case the environment variable is not set you can do that with the 2nd parameter in each helper function. Thanks for your PR @teichsta.
Usage in Config files might require a manual load
The environment variables set by your hosting service are available in your PHP scripts by default using the $_ENV
super-global and the getenv()
function. They are injected into the PHP environment by the web server.
But the values from the .env
files are NOT available in the same way. They need to be loaded manually. The Dotenv plugin will load these on it's first usage. But the plugin can only do so automatically once it has been loaded itself which is after the config files have been parsed by Kirby.
Using Callbacks or the Ready Option
Where possible you should use the callback
option to provide a function that returns the value you need. Once the callback is called the .env
file will already have been loaded and the value will be available. Not all options support callbacks though.
/site/config/config.php
Manually load the .env file in the config file
If you still decide you need to use the values from the .env
files in the config files of Kirby directly, you can manually initialize the loading of these like so:
/site/config/config.php
You can provide a custom options as an array to that function if you want to force loading a specific directory or file.
Other Environment Variables Sources
If you set environment variables in your server configuration these will be available as well.
[!WARNING] This plugin will load environment variables from
.env
files and potentially overwrite existing environment variables.
In the CLI
When running Kirby commands in the CLI make sure you prefix the command with the environment variable for the HOST you want to use.
