Just export the process function to an external module:

process.js

//Import dependencies    

function process(msg, config, callback){}

module.exports = process;

app.js

var process = require('./process.js'); 
//declare msg, config, callback
process(msg, config, callback);

Alternatively, don't export anything and execute process as IIFE:

(function process(msg, config, callback){})();
