I would usually go with the following code in my plain PHP projects.

if(!defined('ENVIRONMENT')){ define('ENVIRONMENT', 'DEVELOPMENT'); } $base_url = null; if (defined('ENVIRONMENT')) { switch (ENVIRONMENT) { case 'DEVELOPMENT': $base_url = 'http://localhost/product/'; ini_set('display_errors', 1); ini_set('display_startup_errors', 1); error_reporting(E_ALL|E_STRICT); break; case 'PRODUCTION': $base_url = 'Production URL'; /* https://google.com */ error_reporting(0); /* Mechanism to log errors */ break; default: exit('The application environment is not set correctly.'); } }

I would usually go with the following code in my plain PHP project which are very small. If the project grows large then I will recommend:

if(!defined('ENVIRONMENT')){ define('ENVIRONMENT', 'DEVELOPMENT'); } $base_url = null; if (defined('ENVIRONMENT')) { switch (ENVIRONMENT) { case 'DEVELOPMENT': $base_url = 'http://localhost/product/'; ini_set('display_errors', 1); ini_set('display_startup_errors', 1); error_reporting(E_ALL|E_STRICT); break; case 'PRODUCTION': $base_url = 'Production URL'; /* https://google.com */ error_reporting(0); /* Mechanism to log errors */ break; default: exit('The application environment is not set correctly.'); } }

I would usually go with the following code in my plain php project which are very small, if the project grows large then I will recommend.

if(!defined('ENVIRONMENT')){ define('ENVIRONMENT','DEVELOPMENT'); } $base_url  =  null; if (defined('ENVIRONMENT')) { switch (ENVIRONMENT) { case 'DEVELOPMENT': $base_url  =  'http://localhost/product/'; ini_set('display_errors',1); ini_set('display_startup_errors',1); error_reporting(E_ALL|E_STRICT); break;   case 'PRODUCTION': $base_url  =  'Prod url'; /* https://google.com */ error_reporting(0); /* Mechanism to log errors */ break; default: exit('The application environment is not set correctly.'); } }
