dotenv
A WordPress plugin to set WordPress options from a .env file.
Any WPENV_
prefixed variables in the .env
will be used to override the WordPress options. For example, if you'd like to set a specific environment to "Discourage search engines from indexing this site", you can add WPENV_BLOG_PUBLIC=0
to your .env
file.
Usage
- Install the plugin.
- Add a
.env
file either in the root of your site or one level above. - Add any WordPress options keys to filter with the prefix
WPENV_
Details
-
Any option in the
wp_options
table or retrieved byget_option()
can be set this way. -
You can define keys either as
WPENV_BLOGDESCRIPTION
or asWPENV_blogdescription
, both will work. -
If you'd like to define the location of your
.env
file, rather than the plugin looking for it, you can filterdotenv_location
to be a directory path. -
You can also change the
WPENV_
prefix by filteringdotev_key_prefix
to be a different prefix.
