pass arguments in js with Node.JS

Question

I have a module in node that I use to pass a username and password.

This is how it works in prompt:

node main.js --username admin --password pass

I'm trying to execute it in my node server via browser with:

const bundle = require ('./js/main.js')("--username admin --password pass")

The require runs the app but args are not working. How to fix this?

Fixed with shelljs

You can access the arguments passed in nodejs by accessing process.argv variable.

for (let i = 0; i < process.argv.length; i++) 
{
     console.log(process.argv[i])
}

Tks pumpkinql but that is valid for the initial js that I run with node.js at beggining. This main.js is another one that I want to run/exec everytime I do /teste I need to pass the arguments in the code when a url is selected.
