Usage

const EnvManager = require('advanced-env-manager');
const Joi = require('joi');

const schema = Joi.object({
  NODE_ENV: Joi.string().valid('development', 'production', 'test').required(),
  PORT: Joi.number().default(3000),
  DATABASE_URL: Joi.string().uri().required(),
});

// Initialize the manager
const envManager = new EnvManager({
  encryptionKey: 'your-encryption-key',
  envPath: '.env',
  schema: schema,
  useCloud: true // Set to true to use AWS Secrets Manager
});

// Use the manager
async function start() {
  try {
    const config = await envManager.initialize();
    console.log('Environment configured:', config);
    
    // Encrypt sensitive data
    const encrypted = envManager.encrypt('sensitive-value');
    console.log('Encrypted:', encrypted);
    
    // Decrypt when needed
    const decrypted = envManager.decrypt(encrypted);
    console.log('Decrypted:', decrypted);
