Is there a way or a module that will display an svg graphic?

Hello,

I have a webcam url that returns an SVG graphic that I would like to display on my MagicMirror2, anyone know of a way or module to do this?

Thanks!

@vvrangler - if it helps, I use SVG graphics in the MMM-WeasleyClock module. And I know I borrowed some of the SVG code from the included Clock module.

Not related to the topic, sorry. BTW, could a Webcam produce SVG as its video? I think it would be a regular video (mp4 or something else), but the video might be wrapped in <foreignObject> or something equivalent element; In that case, what you really need is not implementing SVG itself, but implementing that video directly.

Hi,

you could use my MMM-EmbedURL module for this purpose.
Simply set the embedElementType to img like in the following example:

		{
			module: "MMM-EmbedURL",
			position: "top_center",
			header: "Embed-URL",
			config: {
				embedElementType: "img",
				updateInterval: 10,
				attributes: [
					"frameborder=0",
				],
				embed: [
					"http://SOME_SERVER/SOME_SVG.svg",
				]
			},
		},

You can change the updateInterval to your needs.
