title: What is the easiest way to store a variable in node.js?
body: <p>I am migrating my script from Google Chrome Extension to node.js</p>
  
  <p>And I simply need to store a couple of variables, nothing fancy and performance isn't an issue either, since they would only be accessed when the script is restarted.</p>
  
  <p>In Google Chrome Extension I would use the client side HTML5 storage (localStorage)</p>
  
  <p>However as a server language node.js doesn't have this feature and it's not surprising.</p>
  
  <p>I could of course install some database and being particularly familiar with MySQL this is not an issue, but, if there is a simple way of storing my configs - I would much like to try it out.</p>
