Arguments
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
ROOTDIR="." | Specifies the working directory (default: .) |
Options
| Option | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
--cwd=<directory> | Specify the working directory, this takes precedence over ROOTDIR (default: .) | |
--logLevel=<silent|info|verbose> | Specify build-time log level | |
--envName | The environment to use when resolving configuration overrides (default is production when building, and development when running the dev server) | |

This command sets process.env.NODE_ENV to production. To override, define NODE_ENV in a .env file or as command-line argument.
For convenience, in preview mode, your
.env file will be loaded into process.env. (However, in production you will need to ensure your environment variables are set yourself.)
