Informations about the package dotenv-php
==========
This is a optimize for vlucas/phpdotenv
in PHP fastcgi application.
vlucas/phpdotenv
is excellent. However we found it takes a lot time to read and parse .env
file in fastcgi.
Thus this library comes out to use native PHP file as environment configuration file.
Advantages:
.env.php
can be cached by opcache. It takes much less time than.env
.- Any PHP code can be in
.env.php
. You can do more things (i.e. include files, calculate something, concatenating strings...).
Disadvantages:
.env.php
cannot be loaded by other languages like JavaScript, Java, Ruby... But who cares. :)
Install
Composer is suggested to use:
You can also download the zip file and write your own autoloader.
.env.php
You can use everything of PHP in .env.php
. But it is suggested to do as less as possible. An array must be returned:
It is advised that:
- Do NOT add
.env.php
file to your version system (i.e. git/svn). .env.php
should only store configurations which diffs and which are secrets.
Usage
It is very similar with vlucas/phpdotenv
. After you have created a .env.php
file, you can use the following code to load it:
You can use env($key)
function to get the value:
All environment variables are also stored in $_ENV
, $_SERVER
. You can also use these super globals.
Note: the default behavior of ->load()
is not to override existing environment variables. If you wanna override, please use ->load(true)
or ->overload()
.
