Looks like a radar widget, bad ass man.. Only 2 other apps make a live radar widget and isn’t moving like this.. I want something very similar
]]>
< ![CDATA[
And of course, it will take any url from the web.
Commented in the source the forecast.io link from my preview is still there. On their site is a link to figure out your lat/long.

< ![CDATA[
that’s right and the bad thing about aweather widget especially if you got live motion on it and updating like a radar would, check out the app eweather and look how much juice that sucker sucks up running those widgets like that. But I could see this being a lot more efficient. But again with a widget there’s convenience of not really having to know what to do but put it on the screen which I’m not far past myself lol

Awesome, this works great.

Jappie Toutenhoofd Still I have a question, How does it supposed to update data. I had it in a map, but noticed during the day that opening the map (with wifi on) does not update data. So as you said in the script, now I put the widget in the first (and only) page in my desktop. Yesterday tested it all day but it would not update data. This morning at 7.50am I finally had a data update, but that is now 2 hours old and I would like to refresh data. How can I do that?
]]>
< ![CDATA[
The refresh of the html-page is different per page. And dependent on the maker of the link/site-maker. The CustumWebView uses ‘default’ for cache management. This means, if the site says this is valid for 2 hours. The Webview will use this html-page from cache for 2 hours. I think (!), I saw it work like this for forecast-io, wich is an official widget.
But there is no reloading from LLX-side. So if you want to be sure, put a reload-launcher short-cut close to your widget.
Personally…: rather have old data then a big mobile-data bill. (a,k,a, in Holland: “A lot of month left at the end my data”)
]]>
< ![CDATA[
Hmmm, so I was thinking If you could do that with a real webpage to show in Custom view, You can do that with a self made Html page with specific data saved on my sd card. (tried today, because thats awesome) If I wanted that html page to be updated by clicking the reload launcher and not connected to wifi (I do not use mobile data) then the pages that need internet wil refresh also leaving an error text could not load page because no internet. So maybe we could have a refresh item/Custum view option in the settings. So we could update manualy the items that do not need internet connection. Is that possible? +Pierre Hébert

< ![CDATA[
Pierre Hébert What do you think? first link with your name did not work so I tried 2nd time.
edit: as option for tap / swipe function for that item I mean.
]]>
< ![CDATA[
A way to update manually the webview could be to set the following script on the long tap event of the custom view:
LL.getEvent().getItem().getView().loadUrl(the_url_to_load);
Is this what you are looking for ?
]]>
< ![CDATA[
Yep, i think so! With that i can make an pause and resume script, with an parameter how often it should do this.
]]>
< ![CDATA[
Thank you, Pierre Hébert that works great.
Yes Jappie Toutenhoofd if you could make a pause and resume script, that would be nice. Thank you.

Evelien Wijbenga I finally took some time to put it in the Wiki:
http://www.pierrox.net/android/applications/lightning_launcher/wiki/doku.php?id=script_webview_with_refresh
Pierre Hébert the refresh was even simpeler than you sugested:
LL.getEvent().getItem().getView().reload
]]>
< ![CDATA[
Awesome Jappie Toutenhoofd thanks, I will check it later this evening.
]]>
< ![CDATA[
Jappie Toutenhoofd awesome! I used WebView several times in the past and I wasn’t aware of this reload method! Great to have learned about it 🙂
]]>
< ![CDATA[
very good.
please help me to add a condition in resume I suppose : when no internet don’t update , like the control of the refresh interval
]]>
< ![CDATA[
Jay M Jappie Toutenhoofd TrianguloY Pierre Hébert Please what is the if I have to add ?
Something like : if (TheInternet is true) just before if nu- >

< ![CDATA[
What is the name of your variable. And is it a LL-variable, used for binding?
]]>
< ![CDATA[
Jappie Toutenhoofd it’s your scripts with no change. It’s not bindings but web view.
Noticed there is no issue when I don’t have internet ( buiten )
Zo alles is OK.
]]>
< ![CDATA[
Yes, I understand you only want an extra condition: Refresh depending on the availability of ‘theInternet’.
But LL has no standard variable for this. So, we need an extra variable telling us if we have ‘ Mobistar ‘ Or ‘ HomeNetwork’.
There are scripts around here for this, and I think (did not check) they use a LL-variable/binding.
I need to know this (or your) variable-name to retrieve it in WV-resume-script to code the extra ‘IF’.
Begrijpt u?

< ![CDATA[
Jappie Toutenhoofd Ja
No problem
I am on internet only through Wifi
I think your scripts are fine as is.
]]>
< ![CDATA[
Whenever I set the script in the create event, the link is opened by my browser. Is there any setting or so which I forgot to set in order to make the custom view item handle the link? Im running MM, Internet permission is set…
]]>
< ![CDATA[
how do I add the Internet permission? I installed the internet permission app from the link given in the repository importer, but the internet permission doesn’t show up in the list of permissions for lightning launcher. I’m using a galaxy On5 running Marshmallow.

Do not know if it does show up somewhere, if it does not work directly, restart your phone might work.
