Laravel Env Validator

Laravel Env Validator is meant to validate your .env file in order to avoid any unexpected behaviour for not having properly defined some variable or value.

Highlights

• Make sure you don't go live without all required .env variables and without the correct values
• Validate you env variables using the Laravel Validator by simple defining rules in a configuration file
• Working in teams becomes easier

Installation

Install via composer

composer require melihovv/laravel-env-validator

Register Service Provider

Note! It is optional step if you use laravel>=5.5 with package auto discovery feature.

Add Service Provider to config/app.php in providers section

Melihovv\LaravelEnvValidator\ServiceProvider::class,

Publish configuration file

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Melihovv\LaravelEnvValidator\ServiceProvider" --tag="config"

Example configuration file

// config/laravel-env-validator.php
<?php

return [
    'live_validation' => false,
    'rules' => [
        'SOME_IMPORTANT_VARIABLE' => 'required',
        'ANOTHER_IMPORTANT_ONE'   => 'required|in:TYPE_A,TYPE_B,TYPE_C',
    ],
];

Usage

In case you set live_validation to false in config, you may use artisan command

php artisan config:env-validator

Otherwise env variables will be validated on every application start.
