Display web widget on mirror through iFrame?

Mitch1138

I am able to get iFrame to display a widget and it works well, the the widget is not updated. Is there a way to force an update every 15 min or so?

Thanks, Mitch

@Mitch1138 There no way to force update using iFrame. Its a something is possible add a option for autorefresh. I think will not difficult added. Why do you no try?

@Mitch1138 as a hint, check how other modules update their content.

Thanks for the tip, but I didn’t have a lot of success. I punted and installed Auto Refresh Plus extension in Chrome. Running in server mode I can use this to refresh the page on a predefined time cycle.

Is more easy than that. Check out the function and use of scheduleUpdate function.

Is of currentweather module.

same problem, still not working. Loading the module breaks the file. Here is my code:

	{
        module: 'iFrame',
        position: 'bottom_bar', // This can be any of the regions.
        config: {
            // See 'Configuration options' for more information.
                url: "http://www.yr.no/sted/Norge/Oslo/Oslo/Oslo/meteogram.png"
                width: "828px" // Optional. Default: 100%
                height: "272px" //Optional. Default: 100px
            }
        },

The only detail I’ve found in the documentation that seems a little off, is that it suggests the URL formatting to be as such:

url: "http:http://example.com/"

But that still doesn’t work.
