connect_to_db() fails with Bedrock environment

Hi,

Whenever I try to use the functionality of trp-ajax.php on a Bedrock installation, the connect_to_db function will always return false presumably because the file_get_contents will attempt to load the raw contents of wp-config.php without the necessary require calls.

As a quick workaround I gathered the necessary database credentials directly from the .env file:

protected function connect_to_db() {

        $root_dir = __DIR__ . '/../../../../../';
        $dotenv = new Dotenv\Dotenv($root_dir);
        if (file_exists($root_dir . '/.env')) {
            $dotenv->load();
            $dotenv->required(['DB_NAME', 'DB_USER', 'DB_PASSWORD', 'WP_HOME', 'WP_SITEURL']);
        } else {
            return false;
        }

        $credentials = array(
            'db_name'     => getenv('DB_NAME'),
            'db_user'     => getenv('DB_USER'),
            'db_password' => getenv('DB_PASSWORD'),
            'db_host'     => getenv('DB_HOST'),
        );

        $this->connection = mysqli_connect($credentials['db_host'], $credentials['db_user'], $credentials['db_password'], $credentials['db_name']);

        // Check connection
        if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
            // Failed to connect to MySQL.
            return false;
        }

        mysqli_set_charset($this->connection, 'utf8mb4');
        if ($dbPrefix = getenv('DB_PREFIX')) {
            $this->table_prefix = $dbPrefix;
        } else {
            $this->table_prefix = $this->sql_find_table_prefix();
            if ($this->table_prefix === false) {
                return false;
            }
        }

        return true;
    }

This works, but it’s obviously not a clean nor ideal solution.

Is there any future support planned for environment files?

Thanks in advance.
