Vitacilina(3pm) 					User Contributed Perl Documentation					   Vitacilina(3pm)

NAME
Vitacilina - AXAh, quA~X buena medicina! DESCRIPTION
A simple feeds engine exporter that uses YAML to get list of feeds and TT as templating system. Some people would call it an aggregator. It was intended to be a reliable Planet (<http://planetplanet.org>) alternative, then some development ideas evolved into rFeed (http://github.com/damog/rfeed). Vitacilina runs on production services on a couple of systems. SYNOPSIS
use Vitacilina; my $v = Vitacilina->new( config => 'config.yaml', template => 'template.tt', output => 'output.html', limit => '20', ); $v->render; FILES
config The "config" parameter specifies the path to a YAML file specifying a list of feeds. Use this format: http://myserver.com/myfeed: name: Some Cool Feed http://feeds.feedburner.com/InfinitePigTheorem: name: InfinitePigTheorem ... template A "Template::Toolkit" file which will be taken as the template for output. Format: [% FOREACH p IN data %] <a href="[% p.permalink %]">[% p.title %]</a> by <a href="[% p.channelUrl %]">[% p.author %]</a> <br /> [% END %] The "data" is an ordered array with a bunch of hashes with the simple data such as "permalink", "title", "channelUrl", "author", etc. output File path where the output will be written. EXAMPLES
Take a look at the "examples/" directory for fully working example. SEE ALSO
