Snownews is a text mode RSS/RDF newsreader. It supports all versions of RSS natively, and other feed formats via plugins. It depends on ncurses and uses libxml2 for XML parsing. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
Problems with resizing on different ncurses implementation have been corrected. The display charset is now determined automatically. A bug in the network code has been corrected.
XML::RSS::Headline::UsePerlJournals(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation XML::RSS::Headline::UsePerlJournals(3pm)NAME
XML::RSS::Headline::UsePerlJournals - XML::RSS::Headline Example Subclass
VERSION
2.2
SYNOPSIS
You can also subclass XML::RSS::Headline to tweak the rss content to your liking. In this example. I change the headline to remove the
date/time and add the Use Perl Journal author's ID. Also in this use Perl; rss feed you get the actual link to the journal entry, rather
than the link just to the user's journal. (meaning that the journal URLs contain the entry's ID)
use XML::RSS::Feed;
use XML::RSS::Headline::UsePerlJournals;
use LWP::Simple qw(get);
my $feed = XML::RSS::Feed->new(
name => "useperljournals",
hlobj => "XML::RSS::Headline::UsePerlJournals",
delay => 60,
url => "http://use.perl.org/search.pl?tid=&query=&"
. "author=&op=journals&content_type=rss",
);
while(1) {
$feed->parse(get($feed->url));
print $_->headline . "
" for $feed->late_breaking_news;
sleep($feed->delay);
}
Here is the output from rssbot on irc.perl.org in channel #news (which uses these modules)
<rssbot> + [pudge] New Cool Journal RSS Feeds at use Perl;
<rssbot> http://use.perl.org/~pudge/journal/21884
MUTAITED METHOD
$headline->item( $item )
Init the object for a parsed RSS item returned by XML::RSS.
