How to bind .env values in Laravel Service using Service Container and Service Provider-CodePudding

What I want to achieve is I have a service class name 'SmsService'

<?php
namespace App\Services;

use App\Contracts\SmsServiceContract;
use App\Models\Student;
use Twilio\Rest\Client;

    class SmsService implements SmsServiceContract{
    
            private $account_sid;
            private $account_token;
            private $account_from;
            private $reciever;
    
            public function __construct(){
                $this->account_sid = env("TWILIO_SID");
                $this->account_token = env("TWILIO_TOKEN");
                $this->account_from = env("TWILIO_FROM");
                $this->reciever = new Client($this->account_sid, $this->account_token);
            }
    
        public function sendSingleSms($phone_number, $message){
            
            $this->reciever->messages->create($phone_number,[
                'from' => $this->account_from,
                'body' => $message
            ]);
        }
    
    }

I'm binding this service in a service container like this.

$this->app->bind(SmsServiceContract::class, SmsService::class);

The issue is that I'm getting null when I'm trying to get TWILIO_SID from .env file. How could I get .env data in SmsService class?

CodePudding user response：

You should never access env variables directly in your application, but only through config files.

The best place to put these is in config/services.php

Add a section for Twilio;

    'twilio' => [
        'sid' => env('TWILIO_SID'),
        'token => env('TWILIO_TOKEN'),
        'from' => env('TWILIO_FROM'),
    ]

then open tinker and run

>>> config('services.twilio')

and check that the values are all represented there as expected.

Then in your service provider change references to env() for config and using the dot separated names. eg;

    public function __contruct(){
       $this->account_sid = config('services.twilio.sid');
       $this->account_token = config('services.twilio.token');
       $this->account_from = config('services.twilio.from);

finally, make sure you bind your class into the container via the register() method of a service provider.

 first time config/app.php
  edit 
  add this line
 'account_sid' => env('TWILIO_SID'),
 'account_token' => env('TWILIO_TOKEN'),
 'account_from' => env('TWILIO_FROM'),

and change this line 

 public function __contruct(){
                $this->account_sid = config('app.account_sid');
                $this->account_token = config('app.account_token');
                $this->account_from = config('app.account_from');
                $this->reciever = new Client($this->account_sid, $this->account_token);
            }

because you are production mode runnig

To access keys from .env file, best way is to access them through congif/app.php file. Add these lines in Config/app.php

 'Account_SID' => env('TWILIO_SID'),
 'Account_token' => env('TWILIO_TOKEN'),
 'Account_from' => env('TWILIO_FROM'),

in SmsService you can access them as

     public function __contruct(){
        $this->account_sid = config('app.Account_SID');
        $this->account_token =config('app.Account_token');
        $this->account_from = config('app.Account_from');
        $this->reciever = new Client($this->account_sid, $this->account_token);
     }
