config.js

const dotenv = require("dotenv");
const cfg = {};

if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== "test") {
  dotenv.config({ path: ".env" });
} else {
  dotenv.config({ path: ".env.example", silent: true });
}

// HTTP Port to run our web application
cfg.port = process.env.PORT || 3000;

// Your Twilio account SID and auth token, both found at:
// https://www.twilio.com/user/account
//
// A good practice is to store these string values as system environment
// variables, and load them from there as we are doing below. Alternately,
// you could hard code these values here as strings.
cfg.accountSid = process.env.TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID;

cfg.twimlAppSid = process.env.TWILIO_TWIML_APP_SID;
cfg.callerId = process.env.TWILIO_CALLER_ID;

cfg.apiKey = process.env.TWILIO_API_KEY;
cfg.apiSecret = process.env.TWILIO_API_SECRET;

// Export configuration object
module.exports = cfg;

Why did you use the php tag for this question? Also, where do you access the `config.js` file? — IObert, Feb 21 '23 at 08:33
sorry for the php tag it was a mistake and i access the config.js file i have an .env file that contains all my account sid and api key secret and phone number etc... — Abdellah Hajjam, Feb 21 '23 at 08:40
Did you try to `console.log(cfg)` to check if it contains the right values? — IObert, Feb 21 '23 at 08:49
How i can do that ?? i`m no quiet familiar with this brother — Abdellah Hajjam, Feb 21 '23 at 08:59
Can you add the code/file in which you'll access the Twilio client? — IObert, Feb 21 '23 at 14:07

Have you tried logging the cfg object to see whether it contains all the expected values?

You can do this when you end the config.js file as follows:

console.log(cfg);

// Export configuration object
module.exports = cfg;
