        @sgarg15 of course. See my comments in .txt file include
        https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/555/txt-file-include/57

        Not the actual node_helper but the code inside. Of course u can install mm on your PC as well

                                    // insert the table into the wrapper
                        console.log( "<table>" + output_list.join('')+ "</table>");
            

            This correct?

                @sgarg15 that was the example of running a little js app on the command line node js_filename

                The exact code here doesn’t help you, but the prior code I posted is what u want to try. Altho I don’t know how u will hook it to the sensors on your pc

                    @sdetweil so, i have my python script running in the background, and in my nodeHelper.js i would have

                    import {PythonShell} from 'python-shell';
                    
                    let pyshell = new PythonShell('Swiping.py');  // < --- whatever your script name, in the module folder
                     
                    // the .on handler gets called each time the pythin script writes a message to stdout
                    pyshell.on('message', function (message) {
                      // received a message sent from the Python script (a simple "print" statement)
                      console.log(message);
                      // send info up to modulename.js
                      this.sendSocketNotification("movement", message)
                    });
                    

                    could you explain what movement and message mean in the sendSocketNotification?
