Statamic Environment Indicator is a Statamic addon that provides visual indicators and a widget to help identify your current environment (local, development, production).

Features

This addon does:

• Displays a visual indicator in the CP header showing your current environment
• Provides a dashboard widget with environment details
• Helps prevent accidents by making the environment clearly visible
• Supports local, development, staging, and production environments
• Configurable environment names and labels

How to Install

You can install this addon via Composer:

composer require mikomagni/statamic-environment

run

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=statamic-env-config
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=statamic-env-lang  # Optional: for custom translations

Enable Widget

Add the widget to your control panel configuration in config/statamic/cp.php file:

'widgets' => [
    [
        'type' => 'statamic_env',
        'width' => 100,
    ],
    // ... other widgets
],

Configuration

After publishing the config file, you can customize the environment mappings in config/statamic_environment.php:

Standard Configuration

return [
    'environments' => [
        'local' => ['local'],
        'staging' => ['staging', 'dev'],
        'production' => ['production', 'prod', 'live'],
    ],
    'labels' => [
        'local' => 'Local',
        'staging' => 'Staging',
        'production' => 'Live',
    ],
    // ... icons and colors
];

Custom Environment Types

You can define completely custom environment type names instead of the standard local, staging, production:

return [
    'environments' => [
        'development' => ['local', 'dev'],
        'testing' => ['test', 'staging', 'qa'],
        'live' => ['production', 'prod'],
        'uat' => ['uat', 'acceptance'],
    ],
    'labels' => [
        'development' => 'Dev',
        'testing' => 'Test',
        'live' => 'Production',
        'uat' => 'UAT',
    ],
    'icons' => [
        'development' => '🛠️',
        'testing' => '🧪',
        'live' => '🚀',
        'uat' => '✅',
        'undefined' => '🚨',
    ],
    'colors' => [
        'development' => [
            'background' => 'rgb(0, 123, 255)',
            'color' => 'white',
        ],
        'testing' => [
            'background' => 'rgb(255, 193, 7)',
            'color' => 'black',
        ],
        'live' => [
            'background' => 'rgb(40, 167, 69)',
            'color' => 'white',
        ],
        'uat' => [
            'background' => 'rgb(108, 117, 125)',
            'color' => 'white',
        ],
    ],
];

Widget Display Options

You can control when the widget shows additional environment details:

'widget' => [
    'show_details' => ['local', 'staging'], // Environment types that show additional info
    'always_show_details' => false,         // Set to true to always show details regardless of environment
    'never_show_details' => false,          // Set to true to never show details regardless of environment
],

Options:

• show_details: Array of environment types that should display the detailed information table
• always_show_details: When true, always shows details regardless of environment type
• never_show_details: When true, never shows details regardless of environment type

This allows you to:

• Define custom environment type names - Replace local, staging, production with your own naming convention
• Map multiple APP_ENV values to each environment type
• Customize display labels for each environment type (both in widget and header badges)
• Change emoji icons used in the widget
• Customize badge colors for each environment type in the header
• Configure background patterns for visual environment identification

Translation Support

The widget includes built-in translation support. All text is translatable and follows Laravel's localization conventions.

Publishing Language Files

To customize translations, publish the language files:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=statamic-env-lang

This creates language files in resources/lang/vendor/statamic-environment/ where you can:

• Translate the widget to other languages by creating language folders (e.g., es, fr, de)
• Customize the English text by editing en/widget.php

Available Translation Keys

• environment - "Environment" heading
• viewing_version - Main status message
• unusual_env_detected - Warning for unknown environments
• Various environment variable labels (app_name, app_env, etc.)
• Boolean values (true, false)

Background Patterns

Configure visual header patterns for each environment to make them easily distinguishable:

Pattern Types

The addon supports several pattern types:

• stripes - Diagonal repeating stripes (default for local/staging)
• solid - Solid color background (default for production)
• dots - Repeating dot pattern
• checkerboard - Checkerboard pattern

Pattern Configuration

Add pattern configuration to your config/statamic_environment.php:

'patterns' => [
    'local' => [
        'type' => 'stripes',
        'angle' => -55,
        'size' => 10, // stripe width in pixels
        'light_mode' => [
            'primary' => '#ffffff',
            'secondary' => 'rgba(211, 255, 201, 0.8)',
        ],
        'dark_mode' => [
            'primary' => '#1a1a1a',

    ],
    'custom_env' => [
        'type' => 'dots',
        'size' => '4px',       // dot size
        'spacing' => '20px',   // space between dots
        'light_mode' => [
            'primary' => '#ffffff',    // background color
