      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
        https://dmitripavlutin.com/fetch-with-json/

        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.
