Issues with MMM-json-feed module.

[Aurelio]

I am new to this so I apologize if this is a dumb question.

I installed a module called MMM-json-feed… my intention is to display the Json file I get from this website (https://corona.lmao.ninja/all) on the bottom-left of of the screen but all I am getting is a series of vertical dots.

            {
                    module: 'MMM-JsonTable',
                    position: 'bottom_left',
                    header: 'Tracking Corona ',
                    config: {
                            url: 'https://corona.lmao.ninja/all', // Required
                    }
            }

any help would be greatly appreciated.

@Aurelio
I went through the read me and it says url DEPRECATED, Please use urls instead:

urls: [
        'http://your.server.json.here/abc1.json',
        'http://your.server.json.here/abc2.json',
      ]

Maybe that is the problem?

@thedoorsfanatic

tank you for the recommendation but still no luck…maybe the module doesn’t work for what I am trying to do

            {
                    module: "MMM-JsonTable",
                    title: "Corona virus",
                    position: "top_left",
                    header: "Tracking Corona",
                    config: {
                            urls: [
                                    "https://corona.lmao.ninja/all", // Required
                                    "https://corona.lmao.ninja/all",
                            ]
                    }
            },

@Aurelio
Sorry it did not work, I am not an expert, it was just a hint
Have you tried this one?

@thedoorsfanatic
I appreciate it.

@Aurelio what does your data look like? do you need to use any of the config parameters to get to the right data elements?
i did this

 {
    module: 'MMM-json-feed',
    position: 'middle',
    config: {
      urls: [
	"https://corona.lmao.ninja/all"
      ]
    }
  }

and the data appeared in the center of the page as expected

[Aurelio]

@sdetweil Interesting, I just copied your code and added to my config file and still nothing displays. Maybe the module as a problem in my setup.

thank you for trying for me…

[sdetweil]

@Aurelio just for testing, rename your config.js out of the way,

then copy the sample
cp config.js sample config.js

then add my config info to the end

then try it…

[sdetweil]

@sdetweil also, the module ALWAYS displays a header
and the classes are “dimmed small”
(so , hard to read)

[Aurelio]

Thank you Sam, I did what you recommended and still nothing. I ever loaded the SD-card from a fresh img and only loaded MagicMirror, same result. I do appreciate your taking your time to answer my question.

[sdetweil]

@Aurelio if u put this in a browser, does it return data?

https://corona.lmao.ninja/all

mine returns this

{"cases":285706,"deaths":11876,"recovered":93584,"updated":1584796664654}

I have restarted MM a couple times today and the display comes up each time
