Great idea! In terms of OPML editor, we actually used feedly which has an export to OPML feature. However, CSV is a great feature to add!
It looks like the required fields to create a Feed are link and category, with an optional title.
Is that right?
Here's my understanding of a Feed:
from baleen.models
:
class Feed(me.DynamicDocument):
# my (optional) title for this feed
title = me.StringField(max_length=256)
# the link to get the RSS feed. FeedParser may update it during sync if it sees a different href.
link = me.URLField(required=True, unique=True)
# A dict of xmlURL, which is the link above, and an htmlURL, which is ...? the human-friendly version of the site?
urls = me.DictField()
# my name for the collection of documents - like a corpus name. One category per feed.
category = me.StringField(required=True)
# for Baleen - guessing the Job ignores inactive feeds
active = me.BooleanField(default=True)
# fields that the FeedParser package modifies
version = me.StringField(choices=FEEDTYPES)
etag = me.StringField()
modified = me.StringField()
fetched = me.DateTimeField(default=None)
signature = me.StringField(max_length=64, min_length=64, unique=False)
created = me.DateTimeField(default=datetime.now, required=True)
updated = me.DateTimeField(default=datetime.now, required=True)
Am I heading in the right direction? This is simpler than I was expecting.
Yep, that's pretty much correct - the OPML file doesn't contain much information - title and link are by far the most important, with category and active being of secondary importance.
console/commands/load can handle OPML files.
I don't have OPML, and couldn't easily find an OPML editor. CSV is easy to compose, however.
Add support for loading feeds from CSV.
