        A good starting point might be the module MMM-dht by @nebulx29. It executes a custom shell command to read data from a sensor. You’ll find the invocation of the script in file node_helper.js. NB: it makes three calls, because it needs three values from the sensor.

        In your use case, you’d call Python with your script name instead.

          @Sputnik the facerecognition moduel of @paviro makes also heavy use of python scripts, take a look here https://github.com/paviro/MMM-Facial-Recognition/blob/master/node_helper.js

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