To share variables between files in Node.js, we export the variables and then import them where we want to use them.
For instance, we write
module.js
const name = "foobar";
exports.name = name;
to export the name variable with
exports.name = name;
Then we import module.js and use name in main.js with
const myModule = require("./module");
const name = myModule.name;
