How to check whether my Rails app is running with a dev or production environment while running

I'm running a rails app on a Centos 6.5 server with Passenger and Nginx. How can I check which environment it's running on without stopping it?

Your environment is found on Rails.env.

Loading development environment (Rails 4.2.3)
2.1.2 :001 > Rails.env
 => "development"

You can also use the environment in a question format for conditionals:

2.1.2 :002 > Rails.env.production?
 => false 
2.1.2 :003 > Rails.env.pickle?
 => false 
2.1.2 :004 > Rails.env.development?
 => true

Word of warning - this is if you want to program something within your code that checks the environment.

Use the passenger-status command. For example, this shows me passenger is running the production environment (the first line under the Application groups heading):

(production-web) ubuntu@ip-10-0-3-146 ~% sudo passenger-status

Instance: lNNFwV1C (Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu) Phusion_Passenger/5.0.15)

rails console is not reliable - it only tells you what environment the console is running under. Passenger may be configured to run in a different environment.
