Javafx Raspberry Pi StockTicker
My first raspberry pi project i decided to create a stock ticker based on a live feed from the Nairobi Securities Exchange website.
I used jsoup for extracting the feed from the NSE web and MatrixPanel control found in the JFXtras library for the display.
The MatrixPanel has three contents green for gainers,red for looser's and yellow for no change.
when setting the MatrixPanel prefSize greater then 700 throws an error on the raspberry pi and doesn't run or not setting the scene width and height.Otherwise the error is thrown but the application runs fine.
sample code
sample code
the gainers content
The data is fetched after 1 minute delay for the first excecution and 5 minutes interval ,this is done by the ScheduledExecutorService class
The NseWebParser class does all the data extraction .the application is hosted on github Javafx-StockTicker
To terminate the application from raspberry pi i first used Platform.exit(); which didn't seem to work it showed a black screen ,tried System.exit(0); worked fine.
Am sharing my modem internet connection from my pc to the pi with a straight through ethernet cable.
Setting up the raspberry pi for use with javafx i followed these steps,from the oracle website.
To run the application just copy the dist folder on the pi and run the command
java -jar NSEIOTFx.jar

Scene scene = new Scene(root,Color.BLACK);//throws an error glGetError 0x505 doesn't run
sample code
MatrixPanel matrix_panel = new MatrixPanel(); matrix_panel.setLedWidth(140); matrix_panel.setLedHeight(40); matrix_panel.setPrefSize(760,760);

the gainers content
Content gainers_cont=new ContentBuilder() .color(Content.MatrixColor.GREEN) .type(Content.Type.TEXT) .origin(new Point2D(0,5)) .txtContent(DEFAULT_TEXT) .fontGap(Content.Gap.NULL) .align(Content.Align.RIGHT) .lapse(50) .effect(Content.Effect.SCROLL_LEFT) .postEffect(Content.PostEffect.REPEAT) .pause(300) .clear(Boolean.TRUE) .build(); matrix_panel.setContents(Arrays.asList(gainers_cont));

Runnable run=() -> { //get data }; ScheduledExecutorService scheduledExeService =Executors.newSingleThreadScheduledExecutor(); scheduledExeService.scheduleAtFixedRate(run, 60, 300, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

how did you install javafx on the pi?
