An ideal way to do , preventing accidental damage to global configurations,

applicationConstants.js

 module.exports = { app_host : "example.com" , app_port:8080}
 Object.freeze(module.exports); // ensure protection against modification

app.js

 var appConstants = require('path_to_applicationConstants.js');
 Object.defineProperty(global, "appConstants", {
    enumerable: false,
    configurable: false,
    writable: false,
   value: appConstants 
});

The Globals object should sort you out: http://nodejs.org/api/globals.html#globals_global

Have a Look On This Code . it will clear the picture in your mind :

    public class MyConstants {

    public static final String PROFILE_ID = "profile_id";

    public static final String EMAIL_ID = "email_id";

}

And If You Want To Have some Variables Stored in your App for life time then you should use Shared Preferences of App.
