Bridge request for zenn.dev

Bridge request

Zenn is a Japanese developer blogsite. It has RSS feeds, but only a small chunk of the post is featured.

f'ex: This article's generated RSS entry looks like this in my feed reader:

Formatting is also stripped from the little bit of the article that is featured, leading it to just be displayed as a jumble of text (above post should have a header and a list)

If possible, it would be nice to be able to have a bridge for Zenn that serves the entirety of the post in the feed, with formatting, images, et cetera preserved, maybe either without that big annoying preview card at the bottom, or with an option to shut it off in case someone does want it. Being able to pick multiple tags etc to include in a feed would also be nice, but is of course not a necessity since RSS-Bridge has its own feed merge feature!

General information

• Host URI for the bridge (i.e. https://github.com): https://zenn.dev/

• Which information would you like to see?

Post content contained in the RSS feed in its entirety.

• How should the information be displayed/formatted?

As close to exactly as it is on the website as possible

• Which of the following parameters do you expect?

  • [X] Title
  • [X] URI (link to the original article)
  • [X] Author
  • [ ] Timestamp
  • [X] Content (the content of the article)
  • [X] Enclosures (pictures, videos, etc...)
  • [ ] Categories (categories, tags, etc...)

Options

• [ ] Limit number of returned items
  • Default limit: 5
• [X] Load full articles
  • Cache articles (articles are stored in a local cache on first request): yes
  • Cache timeout (max = 24 hours): 24 hours
• [X] Balance requests (RSS-Bridge uses cached versions to reduce bandwith usage)
  • Timeout (default = 5 minutes, max = 24 hours): 5 minutes

Thanks!

You don't need a bridge. I am not sure which feedreader you are using but if you switch over to miniflux or FressRSS then both of them support expanding the feed out of the box and your problem will be resolved.

For miniflux - see https://miniflux.app/docs/ui.html FreshRSS - https://freshrss.github.io/FreshRSS/en/users/04_Subscriptions.html (see truncated feed section)
