Tell us what’s happening:
Hello everbody. I’m asking for help because when I finished this module, I didn’t pass the third task. I’m working locally and I uploaded the application to heroku. I think the problem might be because I do not include the .env file when I upload it to the server.
I am not sure if I have to upload it because for me, it would be similar to hardcoding.
And if I have to, could anyone explain me how exactly it is more secure to use this file ? thank you.

here is my code:
require('dotenv').config();
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
mongoose.connect(process.env.MONGO_URI, {useNewUrlParser: true, useUnifiedTopology: true});
let Person;
const createAndSavePerson = (done) => {
done(null /*, data*/);
};
const createManyPeople = (arrayOfPeople, done) => {
done(null /*, data*/);
};
const findPeopleByName = (personName, done) => {
done(null /*, data*/);
};
const findOneByFood = (food, done) => {
done(null /*, data*/);
};
const findPersonById = (personId, done) => {
done(null /*, data*/);
};
const findEditThenSave = (personId, done) => {
const foodToAdd = "hamburger";
done(null /*, data*/);
};
const findAndUpdate = (personName, done) => {
const ageToSet = 20;
done(null /*, data*/);
