Configurator

A few simple tools to manage configuration data sanely. These tools are to hold environment data that can be shared without risk. They are not designed to hold 'secrets' e.g. api/oauth keys., _(*1)

Config file generator, _(*2)
Environment settings generator, _(*3)
Convert PHP ini files to PHP-FPM format, _(*4)

Philosophy

Environment variables need to be granular controls. Although they can be grouped together as "environments", they need to be configurable on a per-deploy basis without duplicating large blocks of information., _(*5)

They also need to be stored alongside the application's code so that they can be maintained easily., _(*6)

This library allows you to do these two things. All environment settings can be stored in a simple way, and then extracted and combined with arbitrary combinations. E.g. using 'centos,dev' as the environment setting uses all the 'centos' environment settings, with the 'dev' settings over-riding any duplicate settings., _(*7)

Example usage for people who don't like reading instructions

If you install Configurator through Composer, the executable files will be in the vendor/bin directory and can be run with:, _(*8)

# Generate nginx config file for the centos,dev environment
vendor/bin/configurate -p example/config.php example/config_template/nginx.conf.php autogen/nginx.conf "centos,dev"

# Generate a PHP file that contains a function which returns the current application env settings
vendor/bin/genenv -p example/config.php example/envRequired.php autogen/appEnv.php "centos,dev"

# Convert a PHP ini file to be in the PHP-FPM format
vendor/bin/fpmconv autogen/php.ini autogen/php.fpm.ini

Config file generator

This tool allows you to generate config files from PHP based templates and PHP data files that hold all of the settings for the different environments., _(*9)

Source config template file:, _(*10)

<?php

$config = <<< END

server {

    access_log  ${'nginx.log.directory'}/project.access.log requestTime;    
    error_log  ${'nginx.log.directory'}/project.error.log;
    root ${'project.root.directory'}/public;
}

END;

return $config;

Data file that holds data for arbitrary environments:, _(*11)

<?php

$centos = [
    'nginx.log.directory' => '/var/log/nginx', 
    'project.root.directory' => '/home/project',
];

$windows = [
    'nginx.log.directory' => 'c:/nginx', 
    'project.root.directory' => 'c:/documents/project',
];

$john = [
    'project.root.directory' => '/home/workdir/project',
]

Running the command configurate data/nginx.conf.php var/generated/nginx.conf centos,john -p settings.php would generate the file:, _(*12)

    access_log  /var/log/nginx/project.access.log requestTime;    
    error_log  /var/log/nginx/project.error.log;
    root /home/workdir/project/public;

Syntax

configurate [-p|--phpsettings="..."] [-j|--jssettings="..."] input output environment, _(*13)


-p	A comma separated list of PHP data files. Each need to return an array of data.
-j	A comma separated list of JSON data files.
-y	A comma separated list of YAML files.
input	The input template file.
output	The output file to write.
environment	A comma separated list of environment settings to apply.

Generate environment settings

A tool that will parse the environment settings required by an application and the data files that hold the settings for all environments, and generate a file that contains a function which returns an array of what env settings are required by this application., _(*14)

Given this file listing the environment settings required by an application:, _(*15)

<?php

use ExampleApp\AppConfig;

$env = [
    AppConfig::CACHING_SETTING,
    AppConfig::SCRIPT_PACKING,
    AppConfig::FILE_STORAGE
];

return $env;

And a data file that holds all the data for the various environment settings:, _(*16)

$dev = [
    AppConfig::SCRIPT_PACKING => true,
    AppConfig::CACHING_SETTING => 'caching.disable',
];

$live = [
    AppConfig::SCRIPT_PACKING => true,
    AppConfig::CACHING_SETTING => 'caching.time'
]; 

// Anyone doing UX testing needs to have the scripts packed together
// to avoid slow UI responses
$uxtesting = [AppConfig::SCRIPT_PACKING => true];

Running the command bin/genenv -p environment/config.php environment/envRequired.php env.php dev,uxtesting produces a file containing a single function which contains all the requested env settings:, _(*17)

<?php

function getAppEnv() {
    static $env = [
        'caching.setting' => 'caching.disable',
        'script.packing' => 'true',
    ];

    return $env;
}

The keys are actual strings rather than the constants used in the application to allow the settings to be used outside of the application., _(*18)

Syntax

genenv [-p|--phpsettings="..."] [-j|--jssettings="..."] input output environment, _(*19)


-p	A comma separated list of PHP data files. Each need to return an array of data.
-j	A comma separated list of JSON data files.
-y	A comma separated list of YAML files.
input	The input template file.
output	The output file to write.
environment	A comma separated list of environment settings to apply.

Convert PHP ini files to PHP-FPM format

Because of reasons, PHP-FPM doesn't use the standard PHP in file format when including ini files in a pool in the PHP-FPM conf file. This aspect of the Configurator converts PHP style ini files to the format PHP-FPM expects:, _(*20)

Input ini file:, _(*21)

extension=imagick.so
default_charset = "utf-8";
post_max_size = 10M

Running the command php bin/fpmconv example.php.ini example.phpfpm.ini, _(*22)

will generate this PHP-FPM ini file:, _(*23)

php_admin_value[extension] = "imagick.so"
php_admin_value[default_charset] = "utf-8"
php_admin_value[post_max_size] = "10M"
