dotenv in node js

Comment

This is used to add a specific path to locate the .env file if we use like this 
.config() then this is finding .env file in our cwd - current working directory.


require('dotenv').config({ path: '/custom/path/to/.env' })

dotenv is used in Node.js to load environment variables from a .env file into process.env at runtime, allowing developers to keep sensitive information, such as API keys or database passwords, separate from their code and stored securely. This helps to prevent accidental exposure of sensitive information in version control systems or deployment pipelines.
