turning Postman query into getJSONP()? (BTC node query)

[FlatPepsi]

I may be doing this all wrong, so feel free to point out where I’m off.

I want to send an RCP call to my own BTC node, and I can do it in Postman. I’ve tried using a “getjsonp()” call, but I’m not even sure if that’s the right method.

If there’s a good example module out there that already calls the BTC Code API, I’d love to play with it.

Any advice?

@FlatPepsi so. this gets fun

you can do this in two places in a MagicMirror module

in the browser (modulename.js)
see

or in the node_helper, using some library
like this
https://www.npmjs.com/package/get-json

I don’t know what BTC is…
if it’s Bitcoin, there is a library u could use from the node_helper,
see
https://www.npmjs.com/package/bitcoin

@FlatPepsi also you could do Google search for

“github magicmirror bitcoin”

I get 5 different modules

@sdetweil Every search I’ve done only pulls up modules to display bitcoin price from 3rd parties. I’m looking for a way to pull data from my own bitcoin node & blockchain data - which I’ve yet to see anyone do with a module.

If you run across one, I’d love to see it.

@FlatPepsi but if u have an API to your server, then build a module around it

@FlatPepsi also, something like this might help
