Double integration in settings.php and load.environment.php

Created on 20 March 2024, 8 months ago

In the modules README.md:

In your settings.php file, add the following to the top of the file:

use Symfony\Component\Dotenv\Dotenv;
(new Dotenv())->bootEnv(DRUPAL_ROOT . '/../.env');

On the project page:

copying the load.environment.php file to your project and setting it to autoload using Composer.

Is it really necessary to define both or is one variant sufficient?

We used to recommend adding it to settings.php, but we discovered later that by using the load.environment.php method, you could use .env variables in a Drush context as well. So no, both aren't necessary. The current README.md is up to date though, it doesn't mention settings.php anymore. You should update your version of the module.
