+### Options via CLI
+
+[All `ViteNodeServer` options](https://github.com/vitest-dev/vitest/blob/main/packages/vite-node/src/types.ts#L61-L78) are supported by the CLI. They may be defined through the dot syntax, as shown below:
+
+```bash
+npx vite-node --options.deps.inline="module-name" --options.deps.external="/module-regexp/" index.ts
+```
+
+Note that for options supporting RegExps, strings passed to the CLI must start _and_ end with a `/`;
+
 ## Programmatic Usage
 
 In Vite Node, the server and runner (client) are separated, so you can integrate them in different contexts (workers, cross-process, or remote) if needed. The demo below shows a simple example of having both (server and runner) running in the same context
