Connecting to the internet using Concept N - sony-future-lab-n

Question

I can’t connect to the internet using Concept N. I am using jquery with a simple $.get, but it is just not working. Can someone help me with this?

You actually need to use the da.getXHr() function to access external web services. Here is an example of how to access rss data using jquery. First thing to do is download jquery and include it in your index.html file:
<script type="text/javascript" src="app/jquery.min.js"></script>
Now use this code snippet to access a rss url with jquery. Be sure to replace the line "** Enter-rss-2.0-url-here **" with your own rss url

var title;
var description;
/**

* #param {string} trigger The trigger type of a segment.
* #param {object} args The input arguments.
*/
da.segment.onpreprocess = function (trigger, args) {
console.log('onpreprocess', { trigger: trigger, args: args });
//da.startSegment(null, null);
$.ajax({
url:"** Enter-rss-2.0-url-here **",
type: "GET",
dataType: 'xml',
xhr: function () { return da.getXhr(); },
error: function (jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
console.log('ajax error jqXHR.status[' + jqXHR.status + ']');
def.reject("failed with error "+jqXHR.status);
return;
},
success: function (data, textStatus, jqXHR) {
$(data).find("item:first").each(function() {
title = $(this).find("title").text();
description = $(this).find("description").text()
})
da.startSegment(null, null)
}
})
};
/**

* #param {string} trigger The trigger type of a segment.

da.segment.onstart = function (trigger, args) {
console.log('onstart', { trigger: trigger, args: args });
var synthesis = da.SpeechSynthesis.getInstance();
synthesis.speak("Title "+title+", Content "+description, {
onstart: function () {
console.log('speak start');
},
onend: function () {
console.log('speak onend');
da.stopSegment();
},
onerror: function (error) {
console.log('speak cancel: ' + error.messsage);
da.stopSegment();
}
});
};
