README

dotenvdiff (ded) allows you to quickly compare the environment variable differences between two .env (or .env.example) files.

Installation

Requirements:

• PHP 7.3 or greater

Require the tool globally via Composer:

composer global require cwhite92/dotenvdiff

If you don't have Composer's bin directory in your $PATH, now is the time to add it to ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc:

export PATH=~/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH

Usage

Simply run the ded command and give it the locations of the two .env files that you wish to compare:

ded /path/to/first/.env /path/to/second/.env

If you're running this in a Laravel project, you probably want to run it like this in your project's root directory:

ded .env.example .env

It will give an output similar to the below:

╔═════════════════════╤══════╗
║ .env.example        │ .env ║
╟─────────────────────┼──────╢
║ GITHUB_API_ENDPOINT │      ║
╚═════════════════════╧══════╝

In this instance, there is a new GITHUB_API_ENDPOINT environment variable that exists in .env.example but not in .env. Somebody on our team added it and forgot to tell us 🙂
