To access a Vue.js API key in a Laravel application, you can follow these steps:

  1. Store your API key in a secure file or environment variable. This helps to keep your API key secure and ensures that it is not exposed in your codebase.
  2. In your Laravel application, you can use a configuration file to store the API key. Create a new configuration file in the config directory of your Laravel application, for example, api.php.
  3. In the api.php configuration file, define a key for your API key like so:
1
2
3
return [
    'vue_api_key' => env('VUE_API_KEY')
];


  1. Next, add your API key to the .env file of your Laravel application:
1
VUE_API_KEY=your_api_key_here


  1. Now, you can access the Vue.js API key in your Laravel application by using the configuration helper config() like so:
1
$apiKey = config('api.vue_api_key');


  1. You can now use the $apiKey variable in your Laravel application to make API requests to Vue.js.


By following these steps, you can securely access your Vue.js API key in your Laravel application. Make sure to keep your API key secure and never expose it in your codebase.
