node.js - how to find out the current NODE_ENV the express app is running under?

Question

I was just wondering if i can find out what is the current value of NODE_ENV (i.e. either development or production) in a express code (so i can't use app.configure('production' function(){})).

Answer 1

Try process.env.NODE_ENV

It should do the trick.
