sequelize-cli db:migrate always using development environment

I am using dotenv package. I reuire the package on top. I also tried changing “development” to “test” or “production”, but still It’s always using “development”.

'use strict';
require('dotenv').config({path:'../../.env'})
const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');
const Sequelize = require('sequelize');
const basename = path.basename(__filename);
const env = process.env.NODE_ENV || 'development'; // I tried changing 'development' to 'production' and 'test'
const config = require(__dirname + '/../config/config.json')[env];
const db = {};
let sequelize;
console.log(env)
if (config.use_env_variable) {
  sequelize = new Sequelize(process.env[config.use_env_variable], config);
} else {
  console.log(config)
  sequelize = new Sequelize(config.database, config.username, config.password, config);
}

fs
  .readdirSync(__dirname)
  .filter(file => {
    return (file.indexOf('.') !== 0) && (file !== basename) && (file.slice(-3) === '.js');
  })
  .forEach(file => {
    const model = sequelize['import'](path.join(__dirname, file));
    db[model.name] = model;
  });

Object.keys(db).forEach(modelName => {
  if (db[modelName].associate) {
    db[modelName].associate(db);
  }
});

db.sequelize = sequelize;
db.Sequelize = Sequelize;

module.exports = db;

Here is my .env file

//set environment for different configurations 
NODE_ENV=test

//define port
PORT=4000

NODE_CONFIG_DIR =./src/config

When I run the server, then It uses test environment.

Oops, I just use this npx sequelize db:migrate --env testing

You can just do this all time --env production, but I don’t like it this way. It would make sense to just let things works as it should and use my .env file instead
