Introduction

This package provides a command line utility to switch Laravel env files easily.

Signature

env:switch {new_env} {--force}

Supported Environments

Following values are acceptable for new_env parameter:

• dev
• prod
• testing

Usage Examples

• php artisan env:switch dev
• php artisan env:switch prod --force

How it works?

This utility supports 3 environments as mentioned above. It creates separate .env file for each environment e.g.:

• .env.dev
• .env.prod
• .env.testing

When an environment is activated, its content are copied to main .env file and the correspoding file gets a suffix .active. For example if dev environment is active, then .env.dev will be renamed to .env.dev.active and its content will be copied to main .env file.

In case the required version of .env file doesn't exist, its created automatically by copying .env.example file.
