Open new console to run another Javascript file

Question

What I'm trying to do is open a new command prompt through Node and run a Javascript file.

For example, I would

node file1.js

And that would open a new console instance, which would instantly run

node file2.js

I have the basic outline and can open a new instance, just not pass any commands/arguments

var child_process = require('child_process');

child_process.execSync('start cmd.exe');

I need help passing command line params, cant find out how though.

Answer 1

var child_process = require('child_process');
child_process.execSync('start node file2.js');

Worked for me. Please make sure node.exe is in your PATH
