How to make Team City release the exe once node starts

I am trying to get a node.js application working on a CI server (Team City). I have a build step which goes like this...

npm start "path/to/my/app"

And it works however the build step hangs because the console will not shut down (it can't because it needs to stay open to run the server). So what can I do to get Team City to kick off the command line without staying open?

You are facing a more general problem of running node.js as a background service (the one that does not hold the console etc.)

Common solution to this is to use Forever CLI tool
