Answer 1

Depending on what server.js contains you should be able to do so.

At a minimum you should read port (you could use https://github.com/substack/node-optimist)

var argv = require('optimist').argv;
console.log(argv.port);

// use it like this
$ node server.js -port 7777

and then listen to it on your server (this depends on what lib you're using).

Run the server like this

export PORT=7777; node server.js
