Env variables undefined with expo 48

[elitenas]

Hi,

After upgrading to expo 48, environment variables come undefined on the mobile app but work fine on react-native-web with expo.

I am using babel-loader 9.x.x with expo 48 due to expo 48 upgrading to webpack 5

I have tried .env .env.local .env.production.local and .env.production all are returning me undefined

this is my start script:

"start:npx-dev": "NODE_ENV=development&& npx expo start --clear"

Other info on variants in expo:

• https://docs.expo.dev/build-reference/variants/
• eas.json

if you're using another way to configure your NODE_ENV you're going to have to figure it out yourself unless there's a bounty
