Description

So far the only thing that comes to mind is creating same app definition in apps array one for development and one for production, but this doesn't seem to be right since its the same app...

{
    "apps": [{
        "name": "app",
        "script": "./app.js",
        "watch": true,
        "ignore_watch": ["./src", "./public"],
        "env": {
            "NODE_ENV": "production"
        },
        "env_development": {
            "NODE_ENV": "development"
        }
    }, ...
}

Research direction

Start with PM2's configuration handling for the apps array and the env and env_development blocks shown in the issue. Reproduce the configuration with one app definition and verify that environment-specific settings can be selected without duplicating the app; done means development and production values work as intended.
