manual update rss feed

github gh-pages

some website not provide rss feed for subscribe, so i write some script to generate rss in atom format, and publish they by github page.

the script is in master branch, rss and atom in gh-pages branch. first clone master then git checkout -b gh-pages , you can start use these scripts.

just run script/update-feed.sh then get all feed get update. if want to add any new feed, add the script to execute in function run_all in script/update-feed.sh :

run_all() {
    activity-ncku/update.sh
    gamer/update-all.sh
    # add your script there
}

the script in run all will be execute in directory script/ , so access the rss file in ../ .

the script is can be run by anacron, or by cron if your machine naver shutdown. this is easy anacrontab example:

1   3    update-feed /home/gholk/feed/script/update-feed.sh

or crontab:

# minute hour day-of-month month day-of-week command
# run every day
  11     21   *            *     *           /home/gholk/feed/script/update-feed.sh

remeber to change the path to the directory of feed in script/update-feed.sh .

rss feed

there is a easy website frontend , also a list of all rss at http://gholk.github.io/feed/list.atom .

<style> .date { font-style: italic; } a.feed::after, a.website::after { color: black; content: "]"; } a.feed::before, a.website::before { color: black; content: "["; } </style>

feed website <script> loadFeedList() async function loadFeedList() { const xml = await fetchList() const entryList = xml.querySelectorAll('entry') const fragment = document.createDocumentFragment() for (const entry of entryList) { const article = templateEntry(entry) fragment.appendChild(article) } document.querySelector('#feed-content').appendChild(fragment) function getArticleTemplate() { const template = document.querySelector('#feed-info') const article = template.content.querySelector('article') const deep = true return article.cloneNode(deep) } function templateEntry(entry) { const article = getArticleTemplate() const q = 'querySelector' const t = 'textContent' const g = 'getAttribute' article[q]('h2')[t] = entry[q]('title')[t] article[q]('.date')[t] = entry[q]('published')[t] article[q]('p')[t] = entry[q]('summary')[t] const feedSelector = `link[type="application/atom+xml"], link[type="application/rss+xml"]` article[q]('.feed').href = entry[q](feedSelector)[g]('href') article[q]('.website').href = entry[q]('link[type="text/html"]')[g]('href') return article } async function fetchList() { const url = 'list.atom' const response = await fetch(url) const text = await response.text() const xml = parseXml(text) return xml } function parseXml(text) { const domParser = new DOMParser() const xml = domParser.parseFromString(text, 'application/xml') return xml } } </script>
