LB Web Request

A simple LioranBoard extension for web requests.
You can choose type, whether to save the response in a variable and whether to enable proxy (for any cors errors).
As of now it cannot pass custom headers or parameters except for query string.
Might be useful for triggering actions without actually having to open the url in your browser or retrieving data from some public APIs.
The premade button shows how to retrieve the most recent tweet from NYTimes.

How to install an extension:

  1. Download the .lbe extension file
  2. Click on Install Extension in your LioranBoard Receiver
  3. Select the extension file you downloaded
  4. Select your default Transmitter you are using. Make 100% sure it is the correct one.
  5. Refresh your Transmitter or close and reopen Lioranboard Receiver.
  6. Most extensions include a premade deck with buttons. If you do not see one, create a new button, add "Send to Extensions" command and select the extension you just installed. If you can only see the extension name with no input fields, it means it was not installed correctly. Repeat steps above.
