pimatic-iframe Plugin

magic-tune

@Oitzu
With chrome it works well on all my devices. With androidbrowser and delphinbrowser on a Asus TF101 I see only north germany.

When I put the iframe on the first place in the group it looks like this… The right side is filled out with other devices.

But when the iframe is on the right side it doesn’t fill out the left side with devices like in your exampel.
The same with the ipcamera-plugin.

@magic-tune

@magic-tune @leader21

Can you please also try the fiddle page http://jsfiddle.net/WittigMarcus/27y874vy/ as it contains additional browser-specific settings. If that works better with Dephinbrowser, Androidbrowser, or whatever, I am happy to add these settings to the plugin as well

hey @Oitzu,

first, thank you for writing the plugin. i recently started a feature-request and i would like to ask directly, if you are willing to include the option to change the url, while pimatic is running. that would be damn cool. i am planing to include a position-tracker (with the location-plugin), but unfortunately my coffee/js skills are rather poor.

just tested the fiddle page with delphin, android, chrome and firefox. The iframe looks good on all browsers.

@magic-tune Thanks for tesing! So I’ll add the additional browser-specific settings to plugin code. This should improve the browser compatibilty of the iFrame plgin.

Hi,
I’m not able to get the i-frame to display something.

{
“class”: “iframeDevice”,
“id”: “Newsframe”,
“name”: “NewsFlash”,
“url”: “http://www.dwd.de/wundk/radar/Radarfilm_WEB_DL.gif”,
“width”: 340,
“height”: 240
},

I’m using chrome/win10 and just get a blank frame

any hints?

@merphun
just noticed when I acces over https I get also a blank iframe

merphun

Hi,
yes thats the reason I use indeed https for pimatic.
So lets hope there is an option to make it work using https too

thanks, br
Michael

This maybe the case due to security restrictions:

Case 1: pimatic paged loaded via https while iframe src is http. This will give you an error message on the web console as follows. Workaround: Either load pimatic page via http or load iframe src via https (if https is supported by the site).

Mixed Content: The page at 'https://localhost/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure resource 'http://wetterstationen.meteomedia.de/messnetz/vorhersagegrafik/103770.png?ver=1442934610'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

Case 2: Sourced web site denies embedding. This is the case for google.de, for example. Workaround: Some sites offer additional resources which can be embedded, for example, this is the case for googlemaps. Otherwise, you can only circumvent the restriction by putting a rewriting http proxy into the communication path.

Refused to display 'https://www.google.de/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=7wgIVuiXCY6r8wfYkLnoDQ&gws_rd=ssl' in a frame because it set 'X-Frame-Options' to 'SAMEORIGIN'.

NB: as far as I know it is not possible to catch iframe load errors.

Released 0.1.0 with the improved browser support and rule support to set url.
Thanks again to @mwittig

Hi all, is it on me only or do i have the impression that since version 0.1.1 pimatic-iframe constantly try to contact the URL behind the iframe.
So, i see ton of requests trying to access to the iframe URL and in front of the pimatic icon in the browser i have the circle (the one showing that the page is loading) running in a infinite loop

mwittig

@Yves911 Oh sh… Your’re not the only one. It is a bug. To work-around the issue you can do the following:

Stop pimatic
Edit the configuration. Add/Set the property “reload”: 43200 as part of the iframeDevice configuration. This will update the iframe once every 12 hours
Start pimatic

Yves911

@mwittig Thanks for the trick, that is working fine now

mwittig

@Yves911 Great! I have also filed a pull request with a bug fix. https://github.com/Oitzu/pimatic-iframe/pull/6

Yves911

Thanks @mwittig, this module is very simple and so useful for me…

Oitzu

1.1.2 released.

Anduril

Just an idea: would it be possible to feed this plugin with the adress from the location plugin to show a map of your position?
