Refresh Hello World module

I am using the Hello World module to display an iFrame on my Magic Mirror. Now I need to refresh the frame every minute, but its not working and my js skills are not really good. It only needs to refresh this:
Thanks for every help!

Module.register(“helloworld”,{

    // Default module config.
    defaults: {
            text: "Hello World!"
    },

    // Override dom generator.
    getDom: function() {
            var wrapper = document.createElement("div");
            wrapper.innerHTML = this.config.text;
            return wrapper;
    }

});

Hi,

simplest way is to create a new module. So you don’t run into update problems in the future if someone changes the original hello world module.

Copy the whole helloworld folder from modules/default/ to modules/ and rename it to something different, lets say “mmm-iframe”.

Rename the folder itself to mmm-iframe
Rename the helloworld.js file to mmm-iframe.js

Then overwrite the content of mmm-iframe.js with this:

/* global Module */

/* Magic Mirror
 * Module: mmm-iframe
 *
 * By Michael Teeuw http://michaelteeuw.nl
 * MIT Licensed.
 */

Module.register("mmm-iframe",{

	// Default module config.
	defaults: {
		text: "Hello World!",
		animationSpeed: 1000,
	},

	start: function() {
		Log.info('Starting module: ' + this.name);
		var self = this;
		setInterval(function() {
			self.updateDom();
		}, this.config.animationSpeed);

	},

	// Override dom generator.
	getDom: function() {
		var wrapper = document.createElement("div");
		wrapper.innerHTML = this.config.text;
		return wrapper;
	}
});

Now update your config file and replace the helloworld entry to load the mmm-iframe module instead.

I did not test this, I don’t have a magicmirror available currently, but this should get you going.

Thanks for your answer,
I think there is a problem with the MMM-ModuleScheduler. When the frame is hidden your version is refreshing good, but when it is visible, it is stopping. Maybe it will not work together…
