Features -------- [](#features) ### Declarations of variables [](#declarations-of-variables) ``` # a string without spaces STRING1=foo # a string with spaces surrounded by quotes STRING2="foo's bar" STRING3='"$quote" - $author' # string '"$quote" - $author' STRING4=foo"' "bar # string 'foo\' bar' # variable replacement (assuming user=thomas) VAR1=$user # string 'thomas' VAR2="$user's profile" # string 'thomas\'s profile' VAR3="${APP_ENV-production}" # string 'production' # array handling ARRAY1=(foo bar) # array ['foo', 'bar'] ARRAY2=($int 6 7) # array [42, 6, 7] ARRAY3=() # array [] ARRAY5[0]=foo # array ['foo'] ARRAY5[1]=bar # array ['foo', 'bar'] ``` A lot of things available in bash are not possible in this library but the important ones will be. When you find something is missing please open a feature request on github or create a merge request. ### Using Environment [](#using-environment) All variables available in `$_ENV` and `getenv()` (or a passed array) are available inside the parsed file. ### Conversion of variables [](#conversion-of-variables) In bash every variable is a string like in \*nix every variable is a file and inside is a string. While it is very useful on this level we don't want that inside an application. ``` ### null (case insensitive) NULL1= # null (bash typical) NULL2=null # null NULL3="null" # null STRING1='null' # string 'null' ### numbers (checked with is_numeric) INT=42 # int 42 INT2="23" # int 23 STRING2='42' # string '42' FLOAT=23.2 # float 23.2 FLOAT2="42.1" # float 42.1 STRING3='23.2' # string '23.2' ### true (case insensitive) BOOL_TRUE=true # bool true STRING4='true' # string 'true' ### ATTENTION! In php: ('false' != false) BOOL_FALSE=false # bool false STRING5='false' # string 'false' ### json (you should avoid json in environment files. it is just sugar; ext-json required) OBJECT='json:{"foo":"bar"}' # \stdobj ['foo' => 'bar'] ARRAY='jsonArray:{"foo":"bar"}' # array ['foo' => 'bar'] ### base64 (use it for unprintable characters) APP_KEY="base64:dzN0ICJzZWNyZXQiCg==" ``` ### Concatenation [](#concatenation) Strings are concatenated in bash by just connecting the strings together. ``` STRING1="hello"' $user' # string 'hello $user' ### everything is a string when it gets concatenated STRING2=True" Warrior" # string 'True Warrior' ``` ### Escaping [](#escaping) Escaping quotes works exactly the same as in bash: ``` STRING1="foo's \"bar\"" STRING2='foo'"'"'s "bar"' STRING3='foo'\''s "bar"' STRING4=$'foo\'s "bar"' ``` ### Health Score 50 — FairBetter than 95% of packages Maintenance92 Actively maintained with recent releases Popularity17 Limited adoption so far Community11 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity67 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 97.7% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
