Installation

You can install the package with Composer using the following command:

composer require imliam/laravel-env-set-command:^1.0

Usage

When running the env:set artisan command, you must provide both a key and value as two arguments.

$ php artisan env:set app_name Example
# Environment variable with key 'APP_NAME' has been changed from 'Laravel' to 'Example'

You can also set values with spaces by wrapping them in quotes.

$ php artisan env:set app_name "Example App"
# Environment variable with key 'APP_NAME' has been changed from 'Laravel' to '"Example App"'

The command will also create new environment variables if an existing one does not exist.

$ php artisan env:set editor=vscode
# A new environment variable with key 'EDITOR' has been set to 'vscode'

Instead of two arguments split by a space, you can also mimic the .env file format by supplying KEY=VALUE.

$ php artisan env:set app_name=Example
# Environment variable with key 'APP_NAME' has been changed from 'Laravel' to 'Example'

The command will do its best to stop any invalid inputs.

$ php artisan env:set @pp_n@me Laravel
# Invalid environment key @pp_n@me! Only use letters and underscores

You can specify the external .env file in the third optional argument.

$ php artisan env:set APP_NAME TestApp /var/www/my_own_env.env
# Environment variable with key 'APP_NAME' has been changed from 'Laravel' to 'TestApp'

Or in the second parameter if you use key=value syntax.

$ php artisan env:set APP_NAME=TestApp /var/www/my_own_env.env
# Environment variable with key 'APP_NAME' has been changed from 'Laravel' to 'TestApp'
