@sdetweil Also how do i make it so that the python file is always running?

sdetweil

@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

@sgarg15 your python PGM has to loop somehow. I don’t do python

@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?
