I have an RSS feed using the Google API, that pulls feed results into a page and links to them. I now want to submit the results to a SharePoint list. What's the easiest way to do this? Capture the <p> element by its ID and pass the value to a variable or textbox and submit to SharePoint? How? Also, how can I call the function for this? Basically as each new link presents on the page, send to a SP list pragmatically. The ultimate goal is a way of archiving the feed results somewhere so they can be searched.
I have two code blocks below, one for the RSS Feed, and another for submitting items to SharePoint from textbox fields.
Here is the code for the RSS Feed:
<html><head><script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.google.com/jsapi"></script><script type="text/javascript">
/*
* How to find a feed based on a query.
*/
google.load("feeds", "1");
function OnLoad() {
// Query for president feeds on cnn.com
var query = 'site:news.google.com Obama';
google.feeds.findFeeds(query, findDone);
}
function findDone(result) {
// Make sure we didn't get an error.
if (!result.error) {
// Get content div
var content = document.getElementById('feeds');
var html = '';
// Loop through the results and print out the title of the feed and link to
// the url.
for (var i = 0; i < result.entries.length; i++) {
var entry = result.entries[i];
html += '<p id="paragraphid"><a href=" ' + entry.link + '">' + entry.title + '</a></p>';
}
feeds.innerHTML = html;
}
}
google.setOnLoadCallback(OnLoad);
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.moe').each(function(){
var content = $(this).val();
});
});
</script></head><p style="background-color:#0000E6;color:white;font-weight:bold;width:450px">Google News Feed: Obama</p><body><div id="feeds"></div></body></html>Here is the code I'm working with for submitting items to SharePoint:
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script><script type="text/javascript">
var clientContext;
var currentUser;
var targetWeb;
var text1;
var text2
// When the body is loaded, the onload event handler executes each function whose name is contained in this array.
_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push("callCSOM");
function callCSOM()
{
$("#Button1").click(function()
{
// Make sure the SharePoint script file 'sp.js' is loaded before your code runs.
text1 = $('#TextBox1').val();
text2 = $('#TextBox2').val();
ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(sharePointReady, "sp.js");
});
}
function sharePointReady()
{
addListItems();
}
function addListItems()
{
// Create an instance of the current context to return context information
clientContext = SP.ClientContext.get_current();
var oList = clientContext.get_web().get_lists().getByTitle('testlist');
//Initializes a new instance of the SP.ListItemCreationInformation Class
var itemCreateInfo = new SP.ListItemCreationInformation();
//Creates a new list item in the list
this.newListItem = oList.addItem(itemCreateInfo);
//Sets the specified field value
newListItem.set_item('Title', "Title");
newListItem.set_item('TextBox1', text1);
newListItem.set_item('TextBox2', text2);
//Commits changed properties of the list item
newListItem.update();
clientContext.load(newListItem);
//Executes the current pending request asynchronously on the server
clientContext.executeQueryAsync(onRequestSucceeded, onRequestFailed);
}
//the delegate of the method that is called when the request is executed successfully
