 # Changelog
 
 All notable changes to Vasuzex will be documented in this file.
+## [2.2.0] - 2026-02-06
+
+### 🚀 Major Pro-Level Enhancements
+
+This release brings vasuzex to Laravel-level flexibility and power with critical bug fixes and industry-standard features.
+
+### ✨ Added
+
+#### Environment-Specific Configuration Files
+- **Multi-environment .env support** - Load environment-specific configuration files
+  - `.env` - Base configuration (committed as example)
+  - `.env.local` - Local overrides (gitignored)
+  - `.env.development` - Development environment
+  - `.env.production` - Production environment  
+  - `.env.test` - Test environment
+  - `.env.{environment}.local` - Environment + local overrides
+- **Load cascade** - Later files override earlier (same as Next.js, Vite, Laravel)
+- **Quote parsing** - Properly handles quoted values in .env files
+  ```bash
+  APP_NAME="My App"  # Correctly parsed without quotes
+  ```
+
+#### Deep Configuration Merge
+- **Fixed critical bug** - Database configs now properly merge with nested structures
+- **`Arr.undot()`** - Transform flat keys to nested objects
+  ```javascript
+  { 'mail.mailers.mailjet.api_key': 'xxx' }
+  // Becomes:
+  { mail: { mailers: { mailjet: { api_key: 'xxx' } } } }
+  ```
+- **`Arr.dot()`** - Flatten nested objects to dot notation
+- **`Arr.deepMerge()`** - Deep merge objects preserving nested properties
+- **Enhanced `Arr.set()`** - Now preserves existing nested properties during set operations
+
+#### Runtime Configuration Management
+- **`Config.reloadFromDatabase(app)`** - Reload database configs without restart
+- **`Config.getNested(prefix)`** - Get all configs under a prefix as nested object
+- **`Mail.clearCache(mailerName)`** - Clear cached mail transports
+- **`Mail.reload(mailerName)`** - Reload mail transport with fresh config
+- **`Mail.getCacheInfo()`** - Get transport cache statistics
+
+### 🐛 Fixed
+
+#### DatabaseConfigService Deep Merge Bug (CRITICAL)
+- **Issue**: Database configs with nested keys (e.g., `mail.mailers.mailjet.api_key`) were not properly loaded
+- **Root Cause**: Flat keys from database weren't transformed to nested structure before merging into ConfigRepository
+- **Impact**: Made database-driven configuration unusable for nested configs (mail, database, payment gateways, etc.)
+- **Solution**: Added `#transformFlatKeysToNested()` method that uses `Arr.undot()` to properly structure configs
+- **Result**: Database configs now work exactly like Laravel - can override any nested config value
+
+#### ConfigLoader Environment Loading
+- **Issue**: Only loaded `.env` file, no environment-specific support
+- **Solution**: Now loads multiple .env files in correct cascade order
+- **Benefit**: Matches industry standards (Next.js, Vite, Create React App)
+
+#### Arr.set() Object Overwriting
+- **Issue**: Setting nested values would overwrite existing nested objects
+- **Example Problem**:
+  ```javascript
+  const obj = { mail: { from: { name: 'App', address: 'app@test.com' } } };
+  Arr.set(obj, 'mail.from.reply', 'reply@test.com');
+  // Lost name and address properties
+  ```
+- **Solution**: Added deep merge logic to preserve existing nested properties
+
+#### .env Quote Parsing
+- **Issue**: Quoted values included the quotes
+  ```bash
+  APP_NAME="My App"  # Resulted in: "My App" (with quotes)
+  ```
+- **Solution**: Strip surrounding quotes properly
+
+### 🔄 Changed
+
+#### ConfigLoader Behavior
+- **Before**: Only loaded `.env`, failed silently if missing
+- **After**: Loads multiple environment files in cascade, reports how many loaded
+- **Breaking**: None - fully backward compatible
+
+#### MailManager Caching
+- **Before**: No way to clear cached transports (required app restart)
+- **After**: Can clear cache and reload with `clearCache()` and `reload()`
+- **Breaking**: None - additive changes only
+
+### 📝 Documentation
+
+#### New Examples
+```javascript
+// Environment-specific .env files
+// .env.development
+MAIL_DRIVER=log
+DB_HOST=localhost
+
+// .env.production  
+MAIL_DRIVER=mailjet
+DB_HOST=production-db.example.com
+
+// Runtime config reload
+await Config.reloadFromDatabase(app);
+Mail.clearCache('mailjet');
+
+// Database-driven mail config (now works!)
+await DatabaseConfigService.set('mail.mailers.mailjet.api_key', 'xxx', {
+  scope: 'api',
+  environment: 'production'
+});
+
+// Clear cache and use new config
+Mail.clearCache('mailjet');
+await Mail.send({ to: 'user@example.com', subject: 'Test' });
+```
+
+### ⚠️ Migration Guide
+
+#### From v2.1.x to v2.2.0
+
+**No breaking changes!** All enhancements are backward-compatible.
+
+**Optional Enhancements**:
+
+1. **Split .env by environment**:
+```bash
+# Create environment-specific files
+cp .env .env.development
+cp .env .env.production
+
+# Update .gitignore
+echo ".env.local" >> .gitignore
+echo ".env.*.local" >> .gitignore
+```
+
+2. **Move sensitive configs to database**:
+```javascript
+// Instead of .env:
+MAILJET_API_KEY=xxx
+
+// Use database (now works with nested keys!):
+await Config.setInDatabase('mail.mailers.mailjet.api_key', 'xxx');
+```
+
+3. **Enable runtime config changes**:
+```javascript
+// In admin panel when user updates mail settings:
+await DatabaseConfigService.set('mail.mailers.mailjet.api_key', newKey);
+await Config.reloadFromDatabase(app);
+Mail.clearCache('mailjet');
+```
+

+# Vasuzex 2.2.0 - Pro-Level Release Summary
+
+## \ud83c\udf89 Successfully Implemented
+
+### 1. \u2705 Fixed DatabaseConfigService Deep Merge Bug (CRITICAL)
+
+**What was broken:**
+```javascript
+// Database had: mail.mailers.mailjet.api_key = 'xxx'
+// But ConfigRepository received: flat key without nested structure
+// Result: Config values were null or undefined
+```
+
+**What we fixed:**
+```javascript
+#transformFlatKeysToNested(flatConfigs) {
+  const nested = {};
+  for (const [key, value] of Object.entries(flatConfigs)) {
+    Arr.set(nested, key, value);  // Creates: { mail: { mailers: { mailjet: { api_key: 'xxx' } } } }
+  }
+  return nested;
+}
+```
+
+**Impact:** Database-driven configuration now works for nested keys like Laravel!
+
+---
+
+### 2. \u2705 Added Environment-Specific .env Support
+
+**What was limited:**
+- Only `.env` file loaded
+- No environment-specific overrides
+- No local developer overrides
+
+**What we added:**
+```javascript
+// Load cascade (later overrides earlier):
+.env                      // Base
+.env.local                // Local overrides (gitignored)
+.env.development          // Dev environment
+.env.production           // Prod environment
+.env.{environment}.local  // Env + local
+```
+
+**Impact:** Now matches Next.js, Vite, Laravel industry standards!
+
+---
+
+### 3. \u2705 Added Runtime Config Reload
+
+**What was limited:**
+- Config changes required app restart
+- Mail transport cached forever
+- No way to clear caches
+
+**What we added:**
+```javascript
+// Config reload
+await Config.reloadFromDatabase(app);
+
+// Mail transport management
+Mail.clearCache('mailjet');      // Clear specific mailer
+Mail.clearCache();                // Clear all
+await Mail.reload('mailjet');    // Reload with fresh config
+Mail.getCacheInfo();              // Get cache stats
+```
+
+**Impact:** Runtime config changes without restart - perfect for admin panels!
+
+---
+
+### 4. \u2705 Enhanced Arr Helper with Deep Merge
+
+**What was broken:**
+```javascript
+const obj = { mail: { from: { name: 'App', address: 'app@test.com' } } };
+Arr.set(obj, 'mail.from.reply', 'reply@test.com');
+// Lost: name and address properties
+```
+
+**What we added:**
+```javascript
+Arr.deepMerge(obj1, obj2)         // Deep merge two objects
+Arr.undot(flatObj)                // { 'a.b.c': 1 } => { a: { b: { c: 1 } } }
+Arr.dot(nestedObj)                // { a: { b: { c: 1 } } } => { 'a.b.c': 1 }
+Arr.set() - now preserves nested properties
+```
+
+**Impact:** Proper object manipulation like Laravel's array helpers!
+
+---
+
+### 5. \u2705 Fixed .env Quote Parsing
+
+**What was broken:**
+```bash
+APP_NAME="My App"  # Resulted in: "My App" (with quotes in value)
+```
+
+**What we fixed:**
+```javascript
+// Strip surrounding quotes
+value = value.replace(/^["'](.*)["']$/, '$1');
+```
+
+**Impact:** Clean environment variable values!
+

+
+## \ud83d\udcdd How to Use New Features
+
+### 1. Environment-Specific Configuration
+
+```bash
+# Project structure
+.env                      # Base config (commit .env.example version)
+.env.local                # Your local overrides (gitignored)
+.env.development          # Development settings
+.env.production           # Production settings
+
+# .env.development
+NODE_ENV=development
+MAIL_DRIVER=log
+DB_HOST=localhost
+
+# .env.production
+NODE_ENV=production
+MAIL_DRIVER=mailjet
+DB_HOST=production-db.example.com
+```
+
+### 2. Database-Driven Nested Configs (NOW WORKS!)
+
+```javascript
+// Set nested config in database
+await DatabaseConfigService.set('mail.mailers.mailjet.api_key', 'your-key', {
+  scope: 'api',
+  category: 'mail',
+  environment: 'production'
+});
+
+await DatabaseConfigService.set('mail.mailers.mailjet.api_secret', 'your-secret', {
+  scope: 'api',
+  category: 'mail',
+  environment: 'production'
+});
+
+// ConfigRepository will receive proper nested structure:
+// { mail: { mailers: { mailjet: { api_key: 'xxx', api_secret: 'yyy' } } } }
+```
+
+### 3. Runtime Config Changes
+
+```javascript
+// In admin panel when user updates mail settings:
+
+// 1. Update database config
+await DatabaseConfigService.set('mail.mailers.mailjet.api_key', newApiKey);
+
+// 2. Reload config from database
+await Config.reloadFromDatabase(app);
+
+// 3. Clear mail transport cache
+Mail.clearCache('mailjet');
+
+// 4. Next email will use new credentials
+await Mail.send({ to: 'user@example.com', subject: 'Test' });
+```
+
+### 4. Using Arr Helpers
+
+```javascript
+import { Arr } from 'vasuzex';
+
+// Transform flat to nested
+const flat = {
+  'mail.from.name': 'App',
+  'mail.from.address': 'app@test.com',
+  'mail.mailers.smtp.host': 'smtp.example.com'
+};
+
+const nested = Arr.undot(flat);
+// Result: { mail: { from: { name: 'App', address: 'app@test.com' }, mailers: { smtp: { host: 'smtp.example.com' } } } }
+
+// Transform nested to flat
+const backToFlat = Arr.dot(nested);
+// Result: original flat object
+
+// Deep merge
+const target = { mail: { from: { name: 'App' } } };
+const source = { mail: { from: { address: 'app@test.com' }, to: 'user@test.com' } };
+const merged = Arr.deepMerge(target, source);
+// Result: { mail: { from: { name: 'App', address: 'app@test.com' }, to: 'user@test.com' } }
+```
+
+---
+
+## \ud83d\ude80 Next Steps for Neasto
+
+### 1. Update vasuzex to 2.2.0
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/rishi/Desktop/work/neasto
+pnpm update vasuzex@2.2.0
+```
+
+### 2. Move Mailjet Credentials to Database
+
+```bash
+# Remove from .env:
+# MAILJET_API_KEY=xxx
+# MAILJET_API_SECRET=yyy
+
+# Add to database via admin panel or migration:
+```
+
+```javascript
+// In migration or seed
+await DatabaseConfigService.set('mail.mailers.mailjet.api_key', '539a2c3e3b0b56db8ec7d640aea79da8', {
+  scope: 'api',
+  category: 'mail',
+  description: 'Mailjet API Key',
+  environment: 'production'
+});
+
+await DatabaseConfigService.set('mail.mailers.mailjet.api_secret', 'cef24ddd58ab6c382856d32443b697a5', {
+  scope: 'api',
+  category: 'mail',
+  description: 'Mailjet API Secret',
+  environment: 'production'
+});
+```
+
+### 3. Create Environment-Specific Files
+
+```bash
+# Create .env.development
+cp .env .env.development
+
+# Create .env.production
+cp .env .env.production
+
+# Update .gitignore
+echo ".env.local" >> .gitignore
+echo ".env.*.local" >> .gitignore
+
+# Create .env.example (without sensitive values)
+cp .env .env.example
+# Manually remove sensitive values from .env.example
+```
+
+### 4. Test Database-Driven Config
+
+```javascript
+// Test endpoint that reloads config
+// POST /api/admin/config/reload
+async reloadConfig(req, res) {
+  await Config.reloadFromDatabase(app);
+  Mail.clearCache();
+  return this.success(res, { reloaded: true }, 'Config reloaded successfully');
+}
+```
+
+### 5. Restart Services
+
+```bash
+# Restart all neasto services
+pnpm pm2 restart all --update-env
+```
