How to put the settings in a separate file in laravel?

Question

Laravel

Laravel 5.
The essence of the question is that, depending on where the site is located (local or hosted), it is necessary to change some data in one of the controllers. Those. ideally, move the variable (from which the controller will get this data) to a separate file. Make two copies of this file, one of which will be on the hosting, the other on the local. And the data in this variable will be different. And then, when updating the site, do not touch this file. Those. in the same way as in .env there are settings (for example, connecting to a database).
How to do it? Is there any special mechanism for this in laravel?

Answer 1

.env is provided for this
