c0ntax/env-providers-bundle

A collection of extensions to allow you to use symfony .env files easier

env-providers-bundle

Some extra env providers to make using Symfony 3+ .env files not such a pain, _(*1)

Introduction

<rant type="personal">I much prefer the old parameters.yml way of doing things as it was more flexible, but Symfony has decided to move to dotenv, so...</rant> This bundle adds in 'missing' ways to parse dotenv variables so that you can not hate it so much., _(*2)

Installation

You know the score:, _(*3)

composer require c0ntax/env-providers-bundle

And don't forget to add the following to your Kernel if you're not using Flex:, _(*4)

    public function registerBundles()
    {
        $bundles = [
            // ...
            new C0ntax\EnvProvidersBundle\C0ntaxEnvProvidersBundle(),
            // ...
        ];
    }

Configuration

Currently, a little configuration-light, you can add the following:, _(*5)

c0ntax_env_providers:
    array:
        return_null_if_empty: true # If the env variable = '' then return a null instead of an empty array

Usage

In your .env file, _(*6)

ENV_VAR=this,that, other

and then in your configuration, _(*7)

parameters:
    array_thing: '%env(array:ENV_VAR)%'

Err, that's it. array_thing now equals ['this', 'that', 'other'], _(*8)
