vue-cli should support different NODE_ENV config for Webpack and Vue app

What problem does this feature solve?

I want to see warn logs of components on production build. Almost all warn() calls surrounded with if (NODE_ENV !== 'production') { }.

What does the proposed API look like?

In vue.config.js

{
  ..., 
  appEnv: "different",
  ...
}

@ouzman This is the official solution. https://cli.vuejs.org/guide/mode-and-env.html#modes

I solved this problem.

In vue.config.js:

module.exports = {
    ...
    chainWebpack: config => {
        if (process.env.NODE_ENV === "production") {
            config.plugin('define')
                .tap(definitions => {
                    definitions[0] = Object.assign(definitions[0], {
                        'process.env': {
                            NODE_ENV: "'production-with-warns'"
                        }
                    });
                    return definitions
                });
        }
    },
    ...
};
