package and node env variables.js
content_copyfile_download
//You can do things like
node server.js --name=$npm_package_name

//and it will replace $npm_package_name with that name value in the package.json
//If you have a nested object like the scripts object you can just use an underscore _ to reference it like $npm_package_scripts_test
