how to run a single Node.js script

For many simple, single file projects, you may find it inconvenient to write a complete Dockerfile. In such cases, you can run a Node.js script by using the Node.js Docker image directly:

$ docker run -it --rm --name my-running-script -v 
"$PWD":/usr/src/app -w /usr/src/app node:8 
node your-daemon-or-script.js
