Create shell executable Global node module

Question

I tried to create node module, I succeeded, I used npm install -g at code directory, and it created this module folder in \AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\myfirstmodule, Now I want to make one file executable as command, like pm2. How can I do this? so I can type myfirstmodule in command prompt at any location and it will execute index.js from that module.

I don't have an answer but I would look at NPM and the values inside of package.json - as those are the things that called. — akaphenom

Your package.json can provide a map called bin which will make commands available. See this tutorial for more details.
