Feed::Data is a frontend for building dynamic data feeds.
Populates the feed Attribute, this is an Array of Feed::Data::Object 's
You can currently build Feeds by parsing xml (RSS, ATOM), JSON, CSV, plain text using key values seperated by a colon HTML via Meta Tags (twitter, opengraph) or table markup.
# any rss/atom feed or a web page that contains og or twitter markup $feed->parse( 'http://examples.com/feed.xml' );
$feed->parse( 'path/to/feed.json' );
$feed->parse( 'qq{<?xml version="1.0"><feed> .... </feed>} );
returns all elements in the current feed
$feed->all
returns the count of the current data feed
$feed->count
accepts an index and returns an Feed::Data::Object from feed by its Array index
$feed->get($index)
pop the last Feed::Data::Object from the current feed
$feed->pop;
accepts an index and deletes the relevant Feed::Data::Object based on its Array index
$feed->delete($index);
insert an 'Feed::Data::Object' into the feed
$feed->insert($record)
returns true if Feed::Data is empty.
$feed->is_empty
clear the current feed.
$feed->clear
Set the title of the rss feed the default is Feed::Data.
$feed->title('Custom Title');
Set the link of the rss feed the default is Feed::Data.
$feed->link('https://custom.link');
Set the description of the rss feed the default is Feed::Data.
$feed->description('Custom Description');
Pass additional arguments into the rss feed channel section. See XML::RSS for more information.
$feed->rss_channel({ dc => { date => '2000-01-01T07:00+00:00', subject => "LNATION", creator => 'email@lnation.org', publisher => 'email@lnation.org', rights => 'Copyright 2000, lnation.org', }, syn => { updatePeriod => "hourly", updateFrequency => "1", updateBase => "1901-01-01T00:00+00:00", }, });
render the feed using the passed in format, defaults to text.
# raw - as taken from the feed # text - stripped to plain text # json # rss # csv # yaml # table # styled_table $feed->render('raw');
returns the feed object as a Array of hashes but with the values rendered, key being the field. You can also pass in a format.
$feed->hash('text');
Writes the current stream to file.
$feed->write($file_path, $type);
