The reasoning for this is because we use Envoyer to deploy our application to all machines (including workers) and use config caching to speed up the boot times of the workers.
By allowing a separated config option for setting the environment (
horizon.env
) doesn't work for us since we have all web nodes also run a light version of the worker and have our worker servers run many processes for the heavy lifting and thus need to differentiate which because of config caching we can't do with .env vars.Long story short, this allows us to run
php artisan horizon --environment=worker
in our supervisor config on the worker servers.
