stellar-laravel-hardening
=========================

[](#stellar-laravel-hardening)

Tiny Laravel package that protects you from pushing `APP_DEBUG=true` to anything that *smells* like production.

What it does
------------

[](#what-it-does)

- Looks at:
    - `APP_ENV` / `config('app.env')`
    - `APP_DEBUG` / `config('app.debug')`
    - Current HTTP host
    - `WEBSITE_SITE_NAME` (Azure App Service)
- If the environment is "production-like" and debug is enabled, it:
    - Logs a critical message
    - Aborts with HTTP 500

Install
-------

[](#install)

```
composer require stellarsecurity/laravel-hardening
```

The service provider is auto-discovered.

Publish the config if you want to tweak the rules:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=config --provider="Stellar\LaravelHardening\Providers\StellarHardeningServiceProvider"
```

Then edit `config/stellar_hardening.php`.
