        @emrhssla i cut/pasted your code to create your module, added it to config.js
        and it performs as expected…

        i get in developers console

        hello~hello~hello~hello~hello~hello~hello~hello~hello~hello~    MMM-Testpython.js:62
         Socket recevied : hello                                        MMM-Testpython.js:71
        

        and in terminal window

        notification : TEST
        

        config entry

        {
          module: "MMM-Testpython",
          disabled: false,
          position: "middle",
          config:{
            
          }
        },

          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

                  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
