External Command without makeresults

 I wrote an external command in python and the only way I can get it to work is to put a | makeresults prior to it in the search. | makeresults | mycustomcommand | 

My command just pulls back an array of data through a rest call. I am not passing it any arguments. I have tried setting streaming to both "true" and "false". I have also tried setting generating to both "true" and "false" in the commands.conf. Can someone tell me the correct setting so I can just run:

| mycustomcommand

Currently if I run it like that I do not get any results (also no errors).

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

-Bob
