v2 Release Prep

I would like to change the variable nesting to match the bash-style syntax instead of the current PHP-style syntax.

That's my preference too.

I would also like to remove support for spaced values that are not quoted.

there shouldn't be any features of phpdotenv that will break bash evaluation of the .env file.

That's a sensible goal and a reasonable time to make that change.

You'd also need to prevent spaces around the = sign.

Perhaps we should also require double quotes? Is that going too far?

Not if the goal is bash compatibility.

I'm 👍 on all this.

[stanlemon]

Sounds great, thanks for your continued work on this project!

[sagikazarmark]

Any schedule when the new version will be released?

[vlucas]

There is no current timeline - I just want to make sure everything is right before the release.

[sagikazarmark]

👍

[vlucas]

Just updated this today, and am awaiting test results for an initial v2 release.

[sagikazarmark]

I am already using v2 with success.

[vlucas]

Make sure everything still works with the new stricter rule set on .env files ;)

[sagikazarmark]

Everything is working fine. I am using simple .env loader with ${NESTED} variables.

[vlucas]

Perfect. It also passed all the tests, so I guess we're ready for an initial release!

[kelvinj]

Yay!

I've been running on the latest v2 and all good for me.

[kelvinj]

FYI there's not mention in the readme of the dotenv() helper method.

[kelvinj]

Nor the alternative loaders. 😃

[vlucas]

Very true. Those should at least be in there with a mention.

It'd be great to get a v2 out the door and then try and get it into Laravel 5, which I think it being released in beta this week.

Purely selfish… I have a project that I'm upgrading to L5 and I want to use v2 with it, or rather, not have to rework it back into v1. :)

It's too late for 5.0, it'll be going into 5.1. The final 5.0.0 is released tomorrow or the day after if we hit any issues.

[kelvinj]

@GrahamCampbell Gotcha, cheers.

[GrahamCampbell]

What's holding the 2.0 release btw? Anything I can help with?

[sagikazarmark]

Does that mean release is coming?

[vlucas]

It means the release is going to be a bit different - see #77 for info. I figured we didn't need 2 tickets for this.
