I do this:

let var1="environment.test";
console.log(eval(var1));

I get the error: ERROR ReferenceError: environment is not defined

If i do console.log(environment.test); it works

If i do 

let var1="var2";
let var2="myvalue";
console.log(var1);
console.log(eval(var1));
it works. The problem is 'environment'. How can I do? Thx a lot

    FYI using eval is not a good idea. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/86513/why-is-using-the-javascript-eval-function-a-bad-idea – Patricio Vargas Mar 16 '19 at 17:24

You should avoid using eval. See this link.

However to use it once you import environment like this:

import { environment } from '../environments/environment';

You can use it with eval like this:

export class AppComponent {

  environment = environment;

  constructor() {
    console.log('prefered way:', environment.test); // <-- use this instead
    let var1 = "this.environment.test";
    console.log(eval(var1));
  }
