Running API javascript from bash

Question

Hi I would like to run this script with bash command. I already installed node

How can I run this? Also I would like to parse some variable example node bb.js NiceTitle ./file.txt

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://binbox.io/api.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
    var BB = new Binbox.API("http://api.binbox.io/");
    BB.create({
        title: "here the NiceTitle from command",
        text: "Here a path to ./file.txt",
    }, function(result)
    {
        console.log(result);

        if(result.ok)
        {
            console.log(result.id, result.salt);
        }
        else
        {
            console.log(result.error);
        }
    });
</script>

Create a node module and then run it with node <modulename>. — jfriend00

Make js file with

var BB = new Binbox.API("http://api.binbox.io/");
BB.create({
    title: "here the NiceTitle from command",
    text: "Here a path to ./file.txt",
}, function(result)
{
    console.log(result);

    if(result.ok)
    {
        console.log(result.id, result.salt);
    }
    else
    {
        console.log(result.error);
    }
});

content (for example file.js), then you can run with

node file.js

or from bash

P.S. Sure you will need require in the top to include lib

P.P.S. For arguments parsing there is process.argv http://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/process.html#process_process_argv
