I don't know how to use node_helper.js.

[sdetweil]

see https://ourcodeworld.com/articles/read/286/how-to-execute-a-python-script-and-retrieve-output-data-and-errors-in-node-js

but your should have been ok… do you see the message
console.log("Starting module: " + this.name);

in the terminal window?

@sdetweil

var NodeHelper = require("node_helper");
var {PythonShell} = require('python-shell');

module.exports = NodeHelper.create({
  start: function() {
    console.log("Starting module: " + this.name);
  },
  
  socketNotificationReceived: function(notification, payload) {
    console.log("Starting module: " + this.name);
    switch(notification) {
      case "TESTPYTHON":
        console.log("notification : " + notification)
        this.sendSocketNotification("I_DID")
        PythonShell.runString('print("Hello Python")', null, function (err, result) {
            if (err) throw err;
            console.log(result);  
            });
        break
    }
  },
})  

console doesnt show Starting module…

@emrhssla ok, there are two different output areas…

the developers window, which u posted is from the module.js side…
the node helper content comes out in the terminal window.

start you mirror app,
then start it with

npm start &

(note the & at the end)
now you should be able to see any messages in the terminal window from the node_helper
