News API Usage Examples

Here you will find some examples of how to use the news_provider widget constructor option.

Setting the widget title

To set the news widget title use the optional title property.

new TradingView.widget({
/* other widget options hidden for simplicity */
news_provider: function getNews(symbol, callback) {
callback({
title: 'This is the title!',
newsItems: [/* ... */]
})
}
});

Fetching non-RSS news

Let's say we have a API endpoint that returns a JSON representation of news items that match the NewsItem interface.

const jsonNewsApiUrl = 'https://www.example.com';

new TradingView.widget({
/* other widget options hidden for simplicity */,
news_provider: function getNews(symbol, callback) {
fetch(jsonNewsApiUrl)
.then(res => res.json())
.then(json => {
callback({
newsItems: json,
});
});
}
});

Updating news on demand

Let's say we want to refresh the news on demand, for example after some user event. We can use INewsApi's update method.

const widget = new TradingView.widget({
/* widget options hidden for simplicity */
});

function someEventHandler() {
widget.news().then(newsApi => newsApi.refresh());
}
