Using the node Command
Server-side JavaScript platform (Node.js). More information: <https://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/cli.html#options>.
- Run a JavaScript file:
node *path/to/file*
- Start a REPL (interactive shell):
node
- Execute the specified file restarting the process when an imported file is changed (requires Node.js version 18.11+):
node --watch *path/to/file*
- Evaluate JavaScript code by passing it as an argument:
node *[-e|--eval]* "*code*"
- Evaluate and print the result, useful to print node’s dependencies versions:
node *[-p|--print]* "process.versions"
- Activate inspector, pausing execution until a debugger is connected once source code is fully parsed:
node --no-lazy --inspect-brk *path/to/file*
