getenv and putenv are considered not threadsafe. As a result,
We should expose a way (similar to symphony's usePutenv function) to use the threadsafe version ($_ENV) instead.

As @DracoBlue mentioned in #429:

The current version of google auth library php uses getenv/putenv to read and set environment variables in php. But the function putenv is not threadsafe, which made libraries (Dotenv https://github.com/symfony/dotenv/blob/6.2/Dotenv.php#L61 and phpdotenv https://github.com/vlucas/phpdotenv#putenv-and-getenv) to disable putenv support by default. Frameworks like symfony (deprecated in 4.3 symfony/symfony#31062 and removed in 5.0) and also in laravel there was a similiar solution to not use it anymore directly (vlucas/phpdotenv#76).

Thus here is a pull request to change all the ocurences of:

  • getenv($variable) to array_key_exists($variable, $_ENV) ? $_ENV[$variable] : false
  • putenv($variable) to unset($_ENV[$variable])
  • putenv($variable . "=") to $_ENV[$variable]=''
  • putenv($variable . "=" . $value) to $_ENV[$variable]=$value
