快速js无法正确读取process.env.NODE_ENV

Question

Even though I have set:

export NODE_ENV=production

in .bashrc file which is not getting overwritten by any other file,

The value of process.env.NODE_ENV inside app.js is undefined whereas value of app.get('env') is development.

Again, I am able to print the value of NODE_ENV correctly to console by using: echo $NODE_ENV which returns production.

What am I doing wrong?

A good way of setting environment variables is via the dotenv package. All the variables set via dotenv are accessible inside process.env
