      Hi, I’m still pretty new in this node.js topic, but I’m really interesting in adding some modules.
      I’m struggling to get user input base on a button in the front-end (not physical button) but I cannot find the solution.
      I tried with:

      // create the server
      	listen: function() {
      		this.expressApp.get('/Button1', function (req, res) {
      			sendSocketNotification('BUTTON1', 'Hello world');
      			//res.send('Stop signal sent!');
      		});
      	},
      

      But I got a:
      ReferenceError: sendSocketNotification is not defined
      or with this.sendSocketNotification I got:
      TypeError: this.sendSocketNotification is not a function

      Is there any way to get the user input?

      Thanks!

        @veryaner if you want you can have a look in my Module, i did a similar approach, this might get you started.

        Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

          Great it worked!!! My mistake was that I was creating the app after a notification and not at the start of my module!
          Thanks a lot!
