Hello friend,
Use this small snippet I wrote. I hope it will do exactly what you want I am currently using it in my premium script.
PHP Code:
if (!function_exists('set_env')) {
function set_env($key, $value)
{
$path = ROOTPATH . '.env';
$content = file_get_contents($path);
if (!str_contains($content, $key)) {
$content = "\n" . "$key = " . $value;
}
file_put_contents($path, str_contains($content, '# ' . $key) ? str_replace('# ' . $key, $key, $content) : $content);
$content = file_get_contents($path);
if (is_bool(env($key))) {
$old = env($key) ? 'true' : 'false';
} elseif (env($key) === null) {
$old = 'null';
} else {
$old = env($key);
}
$content = str_replace("$key = " . $old, "$key = " . $value, $content);
if (file_exists($path)) {
file_put_contents($path, $content);
}
}
}
