Javascript GET JSON data from API
I think I've got myself in a muddle with something I thought would be fairly simple. I am trying to return the name and status of a ground station from and API. I want to display this in a browser. The Repl is here https://repl.it/@g7kse/SatNOGS-Javascript.
I could do with a pointer. I followed a few tutorials and its not really doing what it ought to. You will see that coding is not my chosen specialist skill ;-)
I have a feeling it has to the with the data being in [0] and [antenna]. Is that correct?
for XMLHttprequests, use req.onload to get when the request is done and use req.responseText or req.response to get the result
example:
let req = new XMLHttpRequest() req.open("GET", url) req.send() req.onload = function() { console.log(req.responseText) }
Thanks @MrEconomical. That was very quick!

Here is the proper way to do it using the well supported and modern ** fetch ** function: https://repl.it/@freddiethefrog/SatNOGS-Javascript
