Composer Env File Script

The package allows creating or updating ignored env file (ex: .env.local) based on a default env file (ex: .env) interactively.

Installation

composer require seferov/composer-env-script

Modify your composer.json file:

{
  "scripts": {
    "post-install-cmd": [
      "Seferov\\ComposerEnvScript\\ScriptHandler::buildEnv"
    ],
    "post-update-cmd": [
      "Seferov\\ComposerEnvScript\\ScriptHandler::buildEnv"
    ]
  }
}

Configuration

By default, the package generates/updates .env.local file based on .env. This can be changed trough composer.json extra. The configuration also allows managing multiple .env files:

{
  "extra": {
    "seferov-env": [
      {
        "from-file": ".env",
        "to-file": ".env.local"
      },
      {
        "from-file": "somepath/.env.test",
        "to-file": "somepath/.env.test.local"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Credits

The package is highly inspired by https://github.com/Incenteev/ParameterHandler which is for managing ignored parameters.
