Suggestion : remove "boolean" package dependency

[guiled]

The "boolean" dependency is quite light, but is also absolutely overkill. It is only used in one line, just to check that a env config matches some string values.
I think it took more time to search for and include this package than code the desire behaviour.

boolean is not only now unsupported, also the repository link in the npm registry no longer works.

$ npm view boolean

Should be easy enough to replace, this is the whole module:

const boolean = function (value: any): boolean {
  switch (Object.prototype.toString.call(value)) {
    case '[object String]':
      return [ 'true', 't', 'yes', 'y', 'on', '1' ].includes(value.trim().toLowerCase());
    case '[object Number]':
      return value.valueOf() === 1;
    case '[object Boolean]':
      return value.valueOf();
    default:
      return false;
  }
};
