Calling External Commands Return Value

TheJoshWTheJoshW
in Repetier-Server
Hi,
Is it possible to get a return value or string from stdout/stderr and display it using the "Calling External Commands" feature?
I am using Adafruit_Python_DHT to read a DHT22 sensor connected to my Pi running Repetier-Server.  I have written a script that prints the value and made it available as an external command in Repetier Server.  The command runs ok, but I don't know if I can see stdout/stderr from within the Repetier Server web interface.  Is it possible to see or route the output so it is visible in the web interface?
Thanks.

    No that is not possible. But might be a nice addition to say show result in command config. But have to check how I can communicate that. Normally it is asynchronous so it would not wait for the answer.

    Ok thanks,
    For now I have made my script trigger an IFTTT Webhooks event to notify me of the temperature and humidity whenever I run the external command.
