How to use global variable in node.js?

by

Most people advise against using global variables. If you want the same logger class in different modules you can do this

logger.js

  module.exports = new logger(customConfig);

foobar.js

  var logger = require('./logger');
  logger('barfoo');

If you do want a global variable you can do:

global.logger = new logger(customConfig);
