Accessing process.env in TypeScript. Dot notation doesn't work

I'm setting in scripts: "start": "NODE_ENV=development nodemon dist/Server.js" then trying to read NODE_ENV in code, both dot and bracket notation return undefined:

I have next configurations: "@types/node": "^8.0.53" "typescript": "^2.6.1" node 8.9.1 installed locally

Doesn't seems like process.env even have NODE_ENV after I console.log it. console.log(process.env.NODE_ENV); console.log(process.env["NODE_ENV"]); as suggested here What's wrong with it ?.

You didn't post how you access the NODE_ENV variable in your code, but this works fine for me:

package.json:

  "scripts": {
    "test": "NODE_ENV=development nodemon test.js"
  }

test.js

console.log(process.env.NODE_ENV)

Result of running npm test:

[nodemon] 1.12.1
[nodemon] to restart at any time, enter `rs`
[nodemon] watching: *.*
[nodemon] starting `node test.js`
development
[nodemon] clean exit - waiting for changes before restart

(I'm using node v7.10.1, but I'd expect this to work on any version)
