MMM-Fitbit2 PythonShell is not a constructor

@frosty_snow Not sure if helpful but I’m using python-shell 0.5.0 and removing the brackets around PythonShell fixed the same error for me.

var NodeHelper = require("node_helper");
const PythonShell = require("python-shell");

this is working for me

@vizulize i think it depends on what version of python-shell you are running…

your package.json says

"python-shell": "^0.5.0"

which means 0.5.0 OR ABOVE (technically ‘at minimum’)

if u want ONLY 0.5.0, take the ^ off the front…
else sometimes u will get 1.x

@sdetweil It is defined as 0.5.0 in the dependencies.

To be honest, the Python should be rewritten in JS anyway. Perhaps I will get around to doing that in the near future :thinking_face:

Then this issue goes away!
