all

Dotenv::all(): Collection

The function returns all .env vars as an \Illuminate\Support\Collection object.

set

Dotenv::set($key, ?string $value = null): self

The function writes the .env variable regardless of the variable existence.

Dotenv::setEmpty($key, ?string $value = null): self

The function writes the .env variable if it does not exist or empty.

add

Dotenv::add($key, ?string $value = null): self

The function adds the .env variable if does not exist.

put

Dotenv::put($key, ?string $value = null): self

The function updates .env variable if it exists.

Dotenv::putEmpty($key, ?string $value = null): self

The function updates .env variable if it exists and empty.

delete

Dotenv::delete($key): self

The function deletes .env variable.

An array of keys to delete can be passed as $key variable.

Setters features

You can pass data as an array for setters (set, add, put):

Dotenv::set['key1' => 'value1', 'key2' => 'value2']

Setters transform variable name removing quotes (', "), replacing spaces ( ) and hyphens (-) with an underscore (_) and transforming name to uppercase.

For example Dotenv::set('foo bar', 'baz') will write FOO_BAR=baz to .env file.

All setters and delete will rewrite .env file immediately.

reload

Dotenv::reload(): self

The function reloads .env file from the filesystem.

Collection methods

You can call all of Collection methods. For example:

Dotenv::get('APP_NAME') returns APP_NAME value.

Dotenv::has('APP_NAME') checks APP_NAME variable existence.

All collection methods are called for Dotenv collection copy, so any changes to collection will not affect .env file and Dotenv content.

Testing

You can run the tests with:

composer test
