RSS feed generation

[leouieda]

First of all, thank you for the great engine!

Is there any way to generate RSS feeds? I'd like to have feeds for each folder in my site. If not, is there any plan of implementing this?

I could give a hand but I have no idea how these things are done.

I am labeling this help wanted, as I have little time to look into this.

Are you in Rio?

[leouieda]

OK, no problem. I'll look into this when I have some spare time.

Yes I am! I work at the state University (UERJ).

[jandecaluwe]

Que saudade ;-) May visit shortly. Can you recommend a good churrascaria over there these days?

[leouieda]

The most famous that I know of is "Porcão". I've never been myself but many friends say that it's awesome. The one in Flamengo has a particularly nice view of the Pão de Açúcar.

[jandecaluwe]

Yes, that's the famous one isn't. At some point I read somewhere about a meat restaurant where Tom Jobim liked to go at the time, I think somewhere near the Lagoa, but I don't remember the name and I don't know if it's still there.

Anyway, for the record, a churrascaria is not what I associate most with Brasil (in terms of dining that would be more sophisticated restaurants llike DOM and Mani in São Paulo and Roberta Sudbrack in Rio, but most of all it would be the fantastic music culture) but from time to time one has to do it "once" ;-)

[leouieda]

There's lots to like (and dislike) about Rio and Brasil in general. But it's a nice place to live if you have a moderate income. Rio is very expensive.

The Esplanada Grill is pretty famous in Ipanema. And I've heard a lot about CT Boucherie as well.

[jandecaluwe]

I know - having lived in São Paulo for two years.

Thanks for the links, I will definitely check them out.

While googling I also found the name of Tom Jobim's favorite restaurant: Plataforma. But I also read it is closed now and may never re-open.

Fogo de Chão em Botafogo!

[leouieda]

Have you been there?

[jandecaluwe]

Yes, recommended by the hotel - very nice churrascaria.

[leouieda]

It's a famous chain here but I've never been there myself. I'm much for churrasco, except when it's at home.

My current approach is to modify urubu/processors.py, given an index.md file with feed: true in the front-matter. This would generate the feed.xml as a side-effect of processing index.md, which may not be desired. The issue of project output files and templates both assuming html for everything could use some refactoring.

maybe we should add this {{The issue of project output files and templates both assuming html for everything could use some refactoring.}} an issue

as mentioned in my other issue see https://github.com/42sol-eu/jinja2-rss-generator for my approach. If you want to be involved feel free to do so.

This project https://github.com/thp/urlwatch with rss support could be a good alternative for the issue
