Technical notes
|
||
===
|
||
* There is a cache so that source services won't ban you even if you hammer the rss-bridge with requests. Each bridge has a different duration for the cache. The `cache` subdirectory will be automatically created. You can purge it whenever you want.
|
||
* To implement a new rss-bridge, create a new class in `bridges` directory and extends with `BridgeAbstract`. Look at existing bridges for examples. For items you generate in `$this->items`, only `uri` and `title` are mandatory in each item. `timestamp` and `content` are optional but recommended. Any additional key will be ignored by ATOM feed (but outputed to jSon). If you want your new bridge appear in `index.php`, don't forget add annotation.

Rant

*Dear so-called "social" websites.*
|
||
|
||
Your catchword is <20>share<72>, but you don't want us to share. You want to keep us within your walled gardens. That's why you've been removing RSS links from webpages, hiding them deep on your website, or removed RSS entirely, replacing it with crippled or demented proprietary API. **FUCK YOU.**
|
||
|
||
You're not social when you hamper sharing by removing RSS. You're happy to have customers create content for your ecosystem, but you don't want this content out - a content you do not even own. Google Takeout is just a gimmick. We want our data to flow, we want RSS.
|
||
|
||
We want to share with friends, using open protocols: RSS, XMPP, whatever. Because no one wants to have *your* service with *your* applications using *your* API forced-feeded to them. Friends must be free to choose whatever software and service they want.
|
||
|
||
We are rebuilding bridges your have wilfully destroyed.
|
||
|
||
Get your shit together: Put RSS back in. |
