The line "require('dotenv').config();" gets the contents of a file called ".env" in which you should store your global and secret variables.
1. Install the module "dotenv" with
npm i dotenv
2. Create a file named ".env" in your applications root directory
.env
PDNS_API_KEY='YOUR PDNS API KEY'
PDNS_API_ENDPOINT='https://example.com/api/v1/servers/localhost'
3. Use your secret variables
process.env.PDNS_API_ENDPOINT
process.env.PDNS_API_KEY
