How would I create dynamic variable names in NodeJS? Some examples say to store in the window variable, but I was assuming that is client-side Javascript. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Generally you would do something like:

var myVariables = {};

var variableName = 'foo';



myVariables[variableName] = 42;

myVariables.foo // = 42
