Server side environment variables in production?

I'm trying to use node-server to serve my application. In DEV, all my environment variables (like DATABASE_URL) are working fine. When I go to serve with node ./.output/server/index.mjs, none of my server environment variables are there. Is there a common solution for this? I'm on 1.121.21 
> node ./.output/server/index.mjs

Listening on http://[::]:3000
❌ Invalid environment variables: [
  {
    code: 'invalid_type',
    expected: 'string',
    received: 'undefined',
    path: [ 'DATABASE_URL' ],
    message: 'Required'
  },
> node ./.output/server/index.mjs

Seems like my Node polyfill was causing some issues. 
export default defineConfig({
  server: {
    port: 3000,
  },
  plugins: [
    tsConfigPaths(),
    tanstackStart({
      target: "node-server",
    }),
    tailwindcss(),
    // nodePolyfills({
    //   include: ["buffer"],
    //   globals: {
    //     Buffer: true,
    //     global: true,
    //   },
    // }),
  ],
  resolve: {
    alias: {
      "@": path.resolve(__dirname, "src"),
    },
  },
});

    tailwindcss(),
    // nodePolyfills({

    //   globals: {
    //     Buffer: true,
    //     global: true,
    //   },
    // }),
  ],
  resolve: {
    alias: {
      "@": path.resolve(__dirname, "src"),
    },
  },
});
Running vite build and then node --env-file=.env .output/server/index.mjs works!
