This is a Python library for finding links feeds on a website. It is based on
feedfinder <http://www.aaronsw.com/2002/feedfinder/>
_ - originally
written by Mark Pilgrim <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Pilgrim_(software_developer)>
_ and
subsequently maintained by Aaron Swartz <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Swartz>
_ until his untimely death.
Feedfinder2 offers a single public function: find_feeds
. You would use it
as follows:
::
from feedfinder2 import find_feeds
feeds = find_feeds("xkcd.com")
Now, feeds
is the list: ['http://xkcd.com/atom.xml', 'http://xkcd.com/rss.xml']
. There is some attempt made to rank feeds from
best candidate to worst but... well... you never know.
