How to open a command line window in Node.js?

But if you want to run multiple commands, use a batch script and run that batch script from Nodejs. Batch Scripts are stored in simple text files containing lines with commands that get executed in sequence, one after the other.
require('child_process').exec('cmd /c batfile.bat', function(){
// …you callback code may run here…
});
You can learn more about the batch script here. https://www.tutorialspoint.com/batch_script/batch_script_overview.htm
