Accessing Laravel's .env variables inside Inertia.js Vue files

I am starting with the Inertia Laravel example https://github.com/drehimself/inertia-example

which is nothing but Laravel with Vue in one monolithic codebase, using Inertia.js: https://github.com/inertiajs/inertia-laravel https://github.com/inertiajs/inertia-vue

I am trying to access Laravel's .env variables inside my .vue component files

.env file:

APP_NAME=ABC

In app\Providers\AppServiceProvider.php:

public function register()
{
    Inertia::share('appName', env('APP_NAME'));
}

In resources\js\Home.vue component:

<template>
  <div>
        <span class="tw-text-left">{{ appName }}</span>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
export default {
  props: [
    "appName",
 ]
}
</script>

In my vue console, appName shows up blank. It should show "ABC" but doesn't. What's going on here, and how I can access all my env variables, ideally without passing everything through the controller, which doesn't seem very efficient?

if you are using inertia with vite, you can access like below

const cek = import.meta.env.VITE_GEO_API_BASE_URL
console.log(cek)

you can read more about vite env https://dev.to/arielmejiadev/load-laravel-env-variables-into-client-code-with-vite-9ld

if you want to share multiple variables with view use the following:

Inertia::share('app', [
        'name' => config('app.name'),
        'url' => config('app.url'),
    ]);

I know this is kind of old, but I ran into this same issue and the methods above and around the net did not work for me. Something might have changed with Inertia? Anyway, I did get it working though.

Just like above add the following to the register method within your AppServiceProvider:

Inertia::share('appName', config('app.name'));
// I'm using config, but your could use env

Then in your Vue component access the $inertia variable like so:

{{ $inertia.page.props.appName }}

I finally got it working. Here's how, for those interested: In AppServiceProvider:

        Inertia::share(function () {
            return [
                'app' => [
                    'name' => config('app.name'),
                ],
            ];
        });

In your vue file:

<template>
<div>
App name: {{ $page.app.name }}
</div>
</template>

The 2nd part is what I was missing..I was trying to accept the app.name prop, and was missing $page. Hope this helps somebody!

From the documentation on the author's website, you need to instruct vue to inject the page into your component, and then you can accessed the shared variables.

For example:

<template>
  <div>
        <span class="tw-text-left">{{ page.props.appName }}</span>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
export default {
  inject: ['page'],
  // ...
}
</script>
