Feature request: generate a .env.local.php and use a SymfonyBootEnv adapter

[dogawaf]

Hi Helmut

First of all, thx for sharing again awesome code with TYPO3 community. It is very valuable.

Using symfony framework (and symfon/flex), I see performance benefits on production system with the help of symfony:dump-env command.

Quoting the symfony doc:

In production, the .env files are also parsed and loaded on each request. So the easiest way to define env vars is by deploying a .env.local file to your production server(s) with your production values.

To improve performance, you can optionally run the dump-env command (available in Symfony Flex 1.2 or later):

Would it be possible that helhum/dotenv-connector also ships this functionality in order to make TYPO3+dotenv even faster?
The source code of the command in symfony/flex: https://github.com/symfony/flex/blob/master/src/Command/DumpEnvCommand.php

Cheers.

That is implemented (optionally) in 3.x (and partly in 2.x)

uhm sorry. remembered (and re-read) this ticket wrong. It is not implemented of course.
I have no immediate plans in creating this feature, especially because I don't have a need for it. So if someone wants to go ahead an create a PR, I'll happily review it. @dogawaf Want to give this one a shot?

Actually, it is kind of implemented. You can implement your own adapter, that does make use of a cache file that is either generated on the fly or on build time. So this code can be shared in a Gist. Or a PR can be created here for yet another adapter...
