Parses a database URL from the environment into a DSN connection string for use in PHP's PDO.

Useful for parsing heroku config DATABASE_URL variable.

e.g.

A database URL set in an environment variable:

export DATABASE_URL=postgres://USER:PASS@HOST:PORT/DBNAME

...can be parsed into this string:

'pgsql:host=HOST;port=PORT;user=USER;dbname=DBNAME;password=PASSWORD'

...using this code:

<?php

$dsn = new enru\DsnFromEnv();
$dsn_string = $dsn->parse();

A database connection can then easily be made:

<?php

try {
    $dsn = new enru\DsnFromEnv();
    $dbh = new PDO($dsn->parse());
}   
catch (PDOException $e) {
    print "Error!: " . $e->getMessage() . "<br/>";
    die();
}
