I have a Linux environment and I have a PHP Web Application that conditionally runs based on environment variables using getenv in PHP. I need to know how these environment variables need to be set for the application to work correctly. I am not sure how to set this up on Apache.

Also, I need to be able to configure separate environment variables for each domain separately.

Please advice on how can I achieve this.

Something along the lines: 

<VirtualHost hostname:80>
   ...
   SetEnv VARIABLE_NAME variable_value
   ...
</VirtualHost>
