Autodetect environment type and load variables from .env to getenv() automagically.

This is a PHP version of the original Ruby dotenv.

Manual Installation without Composer

1. Copy folder system to your codeigniter projects.
2. Add this code to your codeigniter index.php before codeigniter core loaded (before this text "* LOAD THE BOOTSTRAP FILE") :

   	/*
   	 * --------------------------------------------------------------------
   	 * LOAD PHP DOT ENV FILE
   	 * --------------------------------------------------------------------
   	 *
   	 * And away we go...
   	 *
   	 */
   	require_once BASEPATH . 'dotenv/autoloader.php';
   	
   	$dotenv = new Dotenv\Dotenv(__DIR__);
   	$dotenv->load();

Configuration

1. Create .env according your environment by copy file .env.example for database configuration and the other configuration. Example : .env.development, .env.testing, .env.production

	$db['default']['hostname'] = getenv('DB_HOST');
