Unrecognized PORT command


In my localhost, running below command

PORT=4080 node server.js

But, it was throwing an unexpected error.

'PORT' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Do I need to install any module or did I miss any syntax to run it properly?


Solution

  • Apart from cross-env, Below command can serve the purpose.

    SET PORT=4080 && node server.js 
    

    PS: Set environment variable for nodeJs, run command in project folder.
