How do I pass command line arguments to a Node.js program?

Question

I have a web server written in Node.js and I would like to launch with a specific folder. I\'m not sure how to access arguments in JavaScript. I\'m running node like this:

Answer 1

npm install ps-grab

If you want to run something like this :

node greeting.js --user Abdennour --website http://abdennoor.com 

--

var grab=require('ps-grab');
grab('--username') // return 'Abdennour'
grab('--action') // return 'http://abdennoor.com'

---

Or something like :

node vbox.js -OS redhat -VM template-12332 ;

--

var grab=require('ps-grab');
grab('-OS') // return 'redhat'
grab('-VM') // return 'template-12332'
