First, CH is great, thank you @mayker for such a versatile tool!
I’ve been searching for a way to display news headlines as a marquee (either scrolling or vertical flip) like in the CH showcase thread.
I use @iantrich’s Feedparser to get RSS headlines into a list-card - but this takes up too much room on my UI - and was wondering how to get the values into the header_text: using CH?
Feedparser sensor config:
- platform: feedparser
name: NPR
feed_url: 'https://www.npr.org/rss/rss.php?id=1001'
date_format: '%a, %b %d %I:%M %p'
show_topn: 20
inclusions:
- title
exclusions:
- language
The above gives me sensor.npr, with an attribute of “entries” which contain the titles I would like displayed in the header. Here is what a template of {{ state_attr('sensor.npr', 'entries') }} looks like in Dev Tools:
[{'title': '1,100 Former DOJ Employees Call On Barr To Resign After Intervening In Stone Case'}, {'title': 'Pneumonia Forces Early End To Elton John Concert On His Farewell Tour'}, {'title': '44 Americans On The Diamond Princess Cruise Ship Diagnosed With Coronavirus'}, {'title': "Officials: Mississippi Flooding Remains 'Precarious,' And Can 'Turn At Any Moment'"}, {'title': 'Amid Climate And Housing Crises, Cities Struggle To Place Housing Near Transit'}, {'title': "Fact-Checking 'Contagion' — In Wake Of Coronavirus, The 2011 Movie Is Trending"}, {'title': "5 Years After Indiana's Historic HIV Outbreak, Many Rural Places Remain At Risk"}, {'title': 'Storm Dennis, Massive Bomb Cyclone, Hits United Kingdom'}, {'title': 'U.S. To Evacuate Americans From Virus-Struck Diamond Princess Cruise Ship'}, {'title': 'PHOTOS: Scenes From The Epicenter Of The Coronavirus Outbreak'}, {'title': "Why Pakistanis In The Otherworldly Highlands Aren't Happy To See Pakistani Tourists"}, {'title': "Nevada Voters Begin Early Caucusing On Saturday. Here's What You Need To Know"}, {'title': 'Early Novel Written By Free Black Woman Called Out Racism Among Abolitionists'}, {'title': 'LA County DA Moves To Dismiss 66,000 Marijuana-Related Convictions'}, {'title': "Break-Ups And Throw-Ups: What It's Like To Work At A Restaurant On Valentine's Day"}]
Is it possible to pull these titles from feedparser into CH’s header text, either as either a scrolling marquee or vertical flip?
