Getting Env name

[josx]

I think it is usefull to know which enviroment is loaded. Example for doing something in default or development mode. (not using directly env vars in node). @daffl what do you think about?

[eddyystop]

What are you needing that process.env.NODE_ENV doe not provide?

[josx]

Yes, I know that is what i want. But i think it is usefull to have it the configuration module, so we can do app.get('env') or something like that.

[eddyystop]

I'm not sure I get the advantage of app.get('env') over the obvious process.env.NODE_ENV.

You can actually achieve this with the current module. In your config, do this:

{
  "env": "NODE_ENV"
}

That should do the trick. It will read the NODE_ENV environment variable and make it available at app.get('env')

[josx]

Ok, will do it this way.
