[Debian]How to turn a command call into a init.d service?

Up +1 Down

Where can I find a tutorial/help on how to turn a command call into a init.d service? I have a node.js server that starts by a simple command line call and is terminated by hitting Ctrl+C, but I want it to start at startupt, and have some nice starting/stopping/status abilities a la Apache/HTTPD. Is it doable?

 

*startupt = system boot/restart
