Free rss software software for linux

RSS Panel is a Firefox extension that displays RSS directly from originating website.

This extension auto discovers an associated RSS feed for the current site, if available. It then puts a floating panel in the left upper corner of the browser window, which can be expanded to view all links from the RSS index.

The panel can also be dragged and closed.

RSS Ripper project is a set of Python scripts that rewrites RSS feeds as required for better ease of use. After the rip and rewrite, the new RSS feed is uploaded to your FTP server for your own private re-subscription.

Example Usage:

Rename digg_ripper.py-dist

mv digg_ripper.py-dist digg_ripper.py

Edit the FTP values at the top of the script to point to your own FTP.

FTP_HOST = example.com
FTP_USER = username
FTP_PASS = password
FTP_DIR = ~/path/to/public_html

Run it:

python digg_ripper.py

or

./digg_ripper.py

You may want to add a cron job:

0 * * * * /path/to/rss_ripper/digg_ripper.py >/dev/null 2>&1

And finally you can subscribe to your own custom rss feed.

RSS2Cisco is a script that runs on server and converts RSS feeds in Ciscos IP phone XML format for use as a service. This script will take RSS feeds and convert them to be displayed on Ciscos IP based phones such as the 7920, 7940 and 7960.

RSS-Planet is a custom marker file generator for xplanet which uses RSS feeds from news websites to plot the current headlines on a world map.

By default, Yahoo! News and CNN.com are supported, but other feeds that point to articles with easily-discoverable place names (such as the Washington Post) should work as well.

XML::RSS::Parser is a liberal object-oriented parser for RSS feeds.

SYNOPSIS

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;

use XML::RSS::Parser;
use FileHandle;

my $p = XML::RSS::Parser->new;
my $fh = FileHandle->new(/path/to/some/rss/file);
my $feed = $p->parse_file($fh);

# output some values
my $feed_title = $feed->query(/channel/title);
print $feed_title->text_content;
my $count = $feed->item_count;
print " ($count)n";
foreach my $i ( $feed->query(//item) ) {
my $node = $i->query(title);
print .$node->text_content;
print "n";
}

XML::RSS::Parser is a lightweight liberal parser of RSS feeds. This parser is "liberal" in that it does not demand compliance of a specific RSS version and will attempt to gracefully handle tags it does not expect or understand. The parsers only requirements is that the file is well-formed XML and remotely resembles RSS. Roughly speaking, well formed XML with a channel element as a direct sibling or the root tag and item elements etc.

There are a number of advantages to using this module then just using a standard parser-tree combination. There are a number of different RSS formats in use today. In very subtle ways these formats are not entirely compatible from one to another. XML::RSS::Parser makes a couple assumptions to "normalize" the parse tree into a more consistent form. For instance, it forces channel and item into a parent-child relationship. For more detail see "SPECIAL PROCESSING NOTES".

This module is leaner then XML::RSS -- the majority of code was for generating RSS files. It also provides a XPath-esque interface to the feeds tree.

While XML::RSS::Parser creates a normalized parse tree, it still leaves the mapping of overlapping and alternate tags common in the RSS format space to the developer. For this look at the XML::RAI (RSS Abstraction Interface) package which provides an object-oriented layer to XML::RSS::Parser trees that transparently maps these various tags to one common interface.

XML::RSS::Parser is based on XML::Elemental, a a SAX-based package for easily parsing XML documents into a more native and mostly object-oriented perl form.
