AJV Schema should accept useDotenv=false

See original GitHub issue

In version 2.14 configSchema.jscontains useDotenv: { const: true }, but falseis a valid value cf https://www.serverless.com/framework/docs/providers/aws/guide/serverless.yml/

Also deprecation warning LOAD_VARIABLES_FROM_ENV_FILES should not be triggered when useDotenv=false.

We’ve decided (internally) to revert from deprecation notice, and in v3 we will keep the very same behavior as it’s in v2 (.env files will be loaded by the Framework only if useDotenv: true setting is set).

The reasoning is that we’re worried to break for users which already use .env files to configure the environment for lambdas, where the same root folder is shared by both service configuration and lambda logic

PR that removes the deprecation in v2 will be introduced in the next days (once it’s in, we will close this issue)

I understand. I see this may bring much value for other users. I dont think it is a bad idea and Im not trying to stop it.

However, for my specific use case (and most likely others in this thread). It is useless.

I have no benefit that Serverless is reading .env files
I cannot opt-out from this
It may conflict with values unrelated to Serverless that I’ve already specified in .env
It removes all my .env files before creating the zip archive which will break my production environment

That is why Im would like to see a way to say “This application does not need Serverless to care about my .env files”.

There are other suggestions from @chekalsky, @mnapoli, @jer-sen that also make sense for me. Im no expert in the internals of Serverless, I just wanted to share some input.

(This is written with much love and appreciation of course)
