I can't get it to build with --env=dev about scripts

[sinedied]

No need to apologize, thanks to you I just discovered that they replaced --env by --configuration, among other breaking changes in angular-cli 6 that were not documented 😞

So I need to change the flag in ngx-script too, I'll push a fix ASAP

I just published version 3.0.0 to NPM, so you just have to npm i ngx-scripts@latest in your project 😉
Had to make it a major version bump since I changed the --env option to --configuration to match angular/cli new behavior.

@enhendrickson Angular CLI changed the way it works, the --configuration flag does not behave the same as the previous --environment flag: it now selects a whole build configuration defined in angular.json, not just the environment file.
And by default you have one for production, but not for dev, so you have 2 options here:

• use the --dev flag of ngx-scripts that bascially set the --prod=false flag on Angular CLI, ie: ngx-scripts cordova build --dev --device --debug, but it will also disable minifications and code optiomization beside changing the environment

• create a new dev configuration in angular.json that extends the existing production one but with a different enviromnent file, and then your command will work.

Yes, that's a lot of bother for something that just used to work 😞

Oh, okay... I wondered if that was it... thanks. When you push, would I need to pull from Github or will an npm update grab it?

[enhendrickson]

This should work, right?
ngx-scripts cordova build --device --debug -- --configuration=dev

It doesn't. It still uses production.

@sinedied thanks for the awesome explanation!!
