Hi Martin, I cannot propose any working solution, but it should be possible to do it as follows: you setup an insert_metadata() operator, and use add_timeout() to periodically get the metadata from the URL, using http.get(), and insert that metadata (after having parsed it) using the function given by insert_metadata.
Here's a standalone minimal example doing this. Unfortunately I cannot test at all at the moment. url = "http://localhost/metadata"; source = blank() insert_source = insert_metadata(source) insert = fst(insert_source) source = snd(insert_source) delay = 5. def update_meta() = x_data = http.get(url) insert([("title",snd(x_data))]) end add_timeout(0., { update_meta() ; delay }) output.dummy(on_metadata(fun(m)->print(m),source)) Hope this helps, -- David ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 _______________________________________________ Savonet-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/savonet-users
