Changing default environment in Laravel 4

Question

In Laravel 4 the default configuration environment is \'production\'. This means that if you run an artisan command without the --env option, it assumes the product

Answer 1

In bootstrap/start.php you can set the environment:

$env = $app->detectEnvironment(function()
{

    return 'development';

});

But you can do many things like:

$env = $app->detectEnvironment(array(

    'local' => array('your-machine-name'),

));

And

$env = $app->detectEnvironment(function()
{
    return $_SERVER['MY_LARAVEL_ENV'];
});
