Provides an abstraction of environment variables.

Installation

Run

composer require ergebnis/environment-variables

Usage

This package provides the interface Ergebnis\Environment\Variables along with the following production implementations:

This package also provides the following test implementations:

Production Implementation

Ergebnis\Environment\SystemVariables

If you want to read, set, and unset environment variables in an object-oriented way in a production environment, you can use Ergebnis\Environment\SystemVariables:

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Ergebnis\Environment;

final class BuildEnvironment
{
    private Environment\Variables $environmentVariables;

    public function __construct(Environment\Variables $environmentVariables)
    {
        $this->environmentVariables = $environmentVariables;
    }

    public function isGitHubActions(): bool
    {
        return $this->environmentVariables->has('GITHUB_ACTIONS')
            && 'true' === $this->environmentVariables->get('GITHUB_ACTIONS');
    }

    public function isTravisCi(): bool
    {
        return $this->environmentVariables->has('TRAVIS')
            && 'true' === $this->environmentVariables->get('TRAVIS');
    }
}

Test Implementation

Ergebnis\Environment\FakeVariables

If you want to read, set, and unset environment variables in an object-oriented way in a test environment, but do not actually want to modify system environment variables, you can use Ergebnis\Environment\FakeVariables as a test-double:

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Ergebnis\Environment;
use PHPUnit\Framework;

final class BuildEnvironmentTest extends Framework\TestCase
{
    public function testIsGitHubActionsReturnsFalseWhenNoneOfTheExpectedEnvironmentVariablesAreAvailable(): void
    {
        $environmentVariables = Environment\FakeVariables::empty();

        $buildEnvironment = new BuildEnvironment($environmentVariables);

        self::assertFalse($buildEnvironment->isGitHubActions());
    }

    public function testIsGitHubActionsReturnsFalseWhenValueOfGitHubActionsEnvironmentVariableIsNotTrue(): void
    {
        $environmentVariables = Environment\FakeVariables::fromArray([
            'GITHUB_ACTIONS' => 'false',
        ]);

        $buildEnvironment = new BuildEnvironment($environmentVariables);

        self::assertFalse($buildEnvironment->isGitHubActions());
    }

    public function testIsGitHubActionsReturnsTrueWhenValueOfGitHubActionsEnvironmentVariableIsTrue(): void
    {
        $environmentVariables = Environment\FakeVariables::fromArray([
            'GITHUB_ACTIONS' => 'true',
        ]);

        $buildEnvironment = new BuildEnvironment($environmentVariables);

        self::assertTrue($buildEnvironment->isGitHubActions());
    }
}

Ergebnis\Environment\ReadOnlyVariables

If you want to read environment variables in an object-oriented way in a test environment, but neither actually want to modify system environment variables, nor allow modification by the system under test, you can use Ergebnis\Environment\ReadOnlyVariables as a test-double:

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Ergebnis\Environment;
use PHPUnit\Framework;

final class BuildEnvironmentTest extends Framework\TestCase
{
    public function testIsGitHubActionsReturnsFalseWhenNoneOfTheExpectedEnvironmentVariablesAreAvailable(): void
    {
        $environmentVariables = Environment\ReadOnlyVariables::empty();

        $buildEnvironment = new BuildEnvironment($environmentVariables);

        self::assertFalse($buildEnvironment->isGitHubActions());
    }

    public function testIsGitHubActionsReturnsFalseWhenValueOfGitHubActionsEnvironmentVariableIsNotTrue(): void
    {
        $environmentVariables = Environment\ReadOnlyVariables::fromArray([
            'GITHUB_ACTIONS' => 'false',
        ]);

        $buildEnvironment = new BuildEnvironment($environmentVariables);

        self::assertFalse($buildEnvironment->isGitHubActions());
    }

    public function testIsGitHubActionsReturnsTrueWhenValueOfGitHubActionsEnvironmentVariableIsTrue(): void
    {
        $environmentVariables = Environment\ReadOnlyVariables::fromArray([
            'GITHUB_ACTIONS' => 'true',
        ]);

        $buildEnvironment = new BuildEnvironment($environmentVariables);

        self::assertTrue($buildEnvironment->isGitHubActions());
    }
}

💡 The ReadOnlyVariables implementation will throw a ShouldNotBeUsed exception when the system under tests uses any of the following methods:

  • set()
  • unset()

Ergebnis\Environment\TestVariables

If your tests depend on environment variables, you have the following challenges:

  • when you modify environment variables in a test, you want to restore environment variables that have existed before the test run to their original values
  • when you modify environment variables in a test that has not been backed up before, and forget to restore it, it might affect other tests

To solve this problem, you can add the @backupGlobals annotation to your test cases when using phpunit/phpunit, or use Ergebnis\Environment\TestVariables:

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Ergebnis\Environment;
use PHPUnit\Framework;

final class FooTest extends Framework\TestCase
{
    private static Environment\TestVariables $environmentVariables;

    protected function setUp() : void
    {
        // will back up environment variables FOO, BAR, and BAZ
        self::$environmentVariables = Environment\TestVariables::backup(
            'FOO',
            'BAR',
            'BAZ'
        );
    }

    protected function tearDown() : void
    {
        // will restore backed-up environment variables FOO, BAR, and BAZ to their initial state
        self::$environmentVariables->restore();
    }

    public function testSomethingThatDependsOnEnvironmentVariableFooToBeSet(): void
    {
        self::$environmentVariables->set(
            'FOO',
            '9000'
        );

        // ...
    }

    public function testSomethingThatDependsOnEnvironmentVariableFooToBeUnset(): void
    {
        self::$environmentVariables->unset('FOO');

        // ...
    }

    public function testSomethingThatDependsOnEnvironmentVariableQuxToBeSet(): void
    {
        // will throw exception because the environment variable QUX has not been backed up
        self::$environmentVariables->set(
            'QUX',
            '9000'
        );

        // ...
    }

    public function testSomethingThatDependsOnEnvironmentVariableQuxToBeUnset(): void
    {
        // will throw exception because the environment variable QUX has not been backed up
        self::$environmentVariables->unset('QUX');
    }
}
