    after the npm start &

    press enter… you should get the prompt back, and can do any command

    add this to your node module start function

      start: function() {
        socketTestpython=this;
        console.log(this.name + " node_helper started")    // < ---- add this
    

    should see this in terminal window

    MMM-Testpython node_helper started

            @emrhssla that doesn’t match with the terminal window output…

            in terminal window only

            Starting MagicMirror: v2.7.1
            Loading config …
            Loading module helpers …
            Initializing new module helper …

            All module helpers loaded.

            Launching application.
            

            there are only two modules referenced…

            never mind, two of mine don’t have position and work fine
            delete ---------also, all modules require a position
