        @AxLed so, it should be as simple as

        const express = require('express')
        
        // setup server path handler, for http get request
        this.expressApp.get("/MMM-Navigate",(req,res) =>{this.someFunction(req,res)});
        
        // handler dump request object
        someFunction: function(request,response){
             console.log("request data="+JSON.stringify(request))
            response.send("Hello from MMM-Navigate");
        }

          Here is another example of express;

          const express = require('express')
          const bodyParser = require('body-parser')
          
          // in your member function of node_helper.js, usually it will be `.start()`
          
          this.expressApp.use(bodyParser.json())
          this.expressApp.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({extended: true}))
          var process = (req, res) => {
            var subpath = req.params.subpath
            if (CHECK_SOME_CONDITION) {
              var requestObj = {
                path: subpath,
                query: req.query,
                post: req.body,
                method: req.method,
              }
              this.sendSocketNotification("REQUEST_COMING", requestObj)
              res.status(200).send({status: 200})
            } else {
              res.status(400).send({status: 400})
            }
          }
          
          this.expressApp.get("/YOUR_PATH/:subpath", process)
          this.expressApp.post("/YOUR_PATH/:subpath", process) // when you need POST method.

            @Sean
            Thanks for your quick response, you are faster than my programming timeslots in my “mancave” are. Today i had some time and got it working.

            I will test my module changes (for MMM-Navigate) on my mirror for some days, maybe i find some errors and can fix them before i upload it to quick to github in a poor “quality”.

            My intension was to get rid of MMM-Remote-Control in my installation, as i found errors (while a new install of my MM) and as it seems that MMM-Remote-Control is not maintainanced anymore.

            I added following features to MMM-Navigate:

            • Raspberry operations: any Shellcommands, i use it for
              • restart of MM (pm2 restart mm)
              • restart of Raspberry (sudo shutdown -h now)
              • reboot of Raspberry (sudo reboot)
            • controlling MM by URL Calls (if you dont have a rotary encoder connected or while programming)

            stay healthy

            Regards

            AxLED
