@sdetweil

kind of an example of what I am looking to accomplish…

Only, instead of the title on the left side, I am wanting to show the logo associated with the newsfeed.

Like this:

@justjim1220 understood…

i just can’t get the module to do ANYTHING…

it loads, and registers, and that is it… no functions are called…

@sdetweil

I’m not understanding it myself, I’ll keep plugging away at it.

Feel free to collaborate on it any time you feel like it.

Thanks for all your help thus far! :winking_face:

@justjim1220 I added all the defined functions and none are called…

@sdetweil
What I meant was that I added you as a collaborator

Maybe this way you can show what you did and I could look at it as well

@justjim1220 @sdetweil
First, in line 18 of MMM-NewsFeedTicker.js

Module.register("MMM-NewsFeedTicker", {

I don’t know what @justjim1220 expect(So, I don’t request PR), but anyway, it’s executable now.

Just executable. I think there might be many things to improve or fix.

I think this is similar with what you really want to get.

At first, I tried with your repository, but it seems so many things to modify. So I worked with original newsfeed. I wish you good luck.

@justjim1220 thanks. Woke in the middle of the night thinking that needed to match module name…

Haven’t tried it yet!

i have posted my almost working code to your github project in a new branch.

the image url is extracted, saved and added to each rss feed response item.
that url is used in the image.src attribute for the getDom function…

BUT… the url is the FULL url, and I think the web engine under MM only allows src= from LOCAL files…

when u look at the debug data items, the web server base is

http://0.0.0.0:configured_port

meaning adding a full url on to the end of that will fail…

i posted info in an issue on github on what it might take to solve that…

|edit: I see that Sean has used a different ui widget (Ticker) that seems to solve this problem
