I have a script called myscript.js. I execute the script usually using this mand:

$ node myscript.js

How can I include the JStat Library via the CDN address in the script:

//cdn.jsdelivr/jstat/1.2.1/jstat.min.js

There isn't any logic built into node's require to do this.

If you are certain that this library supports use on the server-side (not all libraries are "isomorphic", that is, usable on both client and server side), then you can download it and require it locally (require('./jstat.min.js')).

The best way would be to find it on npm and install it, like any other node module.

Note: There isn't really an advantage to using a cdn on the server side. The main use case for a cdn is providing a cacheable copy to users' browsers, but users' browsers won't be running node code.
