README

A Laravel artisan command to allow a quick export of config vars to Heroku with one command. Eliminates all that time spent manually inputting config vars either through the CLI or through the web app.

Requirements

• Laravel 5
• PHP 7
• Heroku CLI
• Project to have a Heroku remote connected

Installation

composer require jonathanport/artisan-export-config-vars-to-heroku

Usage

Simply run:

php artisan export-config-vars-to-heroku

The command line will ask you to input a file name. This could be your default .env file but I personally like to make a separate .env.heroku file and use that to input all my config vars so I don't mess up my local file. Inside of the command line, type in .your-env and it will continue to import your config vars.

By default, the script will not export empty values e.g. APP_NAME=. To allow the export of empty values, you can add the --include-empty-values flag and the script will include empty values. The script will include null values regardless.
