GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
|
||||
Version 3, 29 June 2007
|
||||
|
||||
Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
|
||||
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
|
||||
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
This version of the GNU Lesser General Public License incorporates
|
||||
the terms and conditions of version 3 of the GNU General Public
|
||||
License, supplemented by the additional permissions listed below.
|
||||
|
||||
0. Additional Definitions.
|
||||
|
||||
As used herein, "this License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Lesser
|
||||
General Public License, and the "GNU GPL" refers to version 3 of the GNU
|
||||
General Public License.
|
||||
|
||||
"The Library" refers to a covered work governed by this License,
|
||||
other than an Application or a Combined Work as defined below.
|
||||
|
||||
An "Application" is any work that makes use of an interface provided
|
||||
by the Library, but which is not otherwise based on the Library.
|
||||
Defining a subclass of a class defined by the Library is deemed a mode
|
||||
of using an interface provided by the Library.
|
||||
|
||||
A "Combined Work" is a work produced by combining or linking an
|
||||
Application with the Library. The particular version of the Library
|
||||
with which the Combined Work was made is also called the "Linked
|
||||
Version".
|
||||
|
||||
The "Minimal Corresponding Source" for a Combined Work means the
|
||||
Corresponding Source for the Combined Work, excluding any source code
|
||||
for portions of the Combined Work that, considered in isolation, are
|
||||
based on the Application, and not on the Linked Version.
|
||||
|
||||
The "Corresponding Application Code" for a Combined Work means the
|
||||
object code and/or source code for the Application, including any data
|
||||
and utility programs needed for reproducing the Combined Work from the
|
||||
Application, but excluding the System Libraries of the Combined Work.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Exception to Section 3 of the GNU GPL.
|
||||
|
||||
You may convey a covered work under sections 3 and 4 of this License
|
||||
without being bound by section 3 of the GNU GPL.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Conveying Modified Versions.
|
||||
|
||||
If you modify a copy of the Library, and, in your modifications, a
|
||||
facility refers to a function or data to be supplied by an Application
|
||||
that uses the facility (other than as an argument passed when the
|
||||
facility is invoked), then you may convey a copy of the modified
|
||||
version:
|
||||
|
||||
a) under this License, provided that you make a good faith effort to
|
||||
ensure that, in the event an Application does not supply the
|
||||
function or data, the facility still operates, and performs
|
||||
whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful, or
|
||||
|
||||
b) under the GNU GPL, with none of the additional permissions of
|
||||
this License applicable to that copy.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Object Code Incorporating Material from Library Header Files.
|
||||
|
||||
The object code form of an Application may incorporate material from
|
||||
a header file that is part of the Library. You may convey such object
|
||||
code under terms of your choice, provided that, if the incorporated
|
||||
material is not limited to numerical parameters, data structure
|
||||
layouts and accessors, or small macros, inline functions and templates
|
||||
(ten or fewer lines in length), you do both of the following:
|
||||
|
||||
a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the object code that the
|
||||
Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
|
||||
covered by this License.
|
||||
|
||||
b) Accompany the object code with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
|
||||
document.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Combined Works.
|
||||
|
||||
You may convey a Combined Work under terms of your choice that,
|
||||
taken together, effectively do not restrict modification of the
|
||||
portions of the Library contained in the Combined Work and reverse
|
||||
engineering for debugging such modifications, if you also do each of
|
||||
the following:
|
||||
|
||||
a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the Combined Work that
|
||||
the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
|
||||
covered by this License.
|
||||
|
||||
b) Accompany the Combined Work with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
|
||||
document.
|
||||
|
||||
c) For a Combined Work that displays copyright notices during
|
||||
execution, include the copyright notice for the Library among
|
||||
these notices, as well as a reference directing the user to the
|
||||
copies of the GNU GPL and this license document.
|
||||
|
||||
d) Do one of the following:
|
||||
|
||||
0) Convey the Minimal Corresponding Source under the terms of this
|
||||
License, and the Corresponding Application Code in a form
|
||||
suitable for, and under terms that permit, the user to
|
||||
recombine or relink the Application with a modified version of
|
||||
the Linked Version to produce a modified Combined Work, in the
|
||||
manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL for conveying
|
||||
Corresponding Source.
|
||||
|
||||
1) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
|
||||
Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (a) uses at run time
|
||||
a copy of the Library already present on the user's computer
|
||||
system, and (b) will operate properly with a modified version
|
||||
of the Library that is interface-compatible with the Linked
|
||||
Version.
|
||||
|
||||
e) Provide Installation Information, but only if you would otherwise
|
||||
be required to provide such information under section 6 of the
|
||||
GNU GPL, and only to the extent that such information is
|
||||
necessary to install and execute a modified version of the
|
||||
Combined Work produced by recombining or relinking the
|
||||
Application with a modified version of the Linked Version. (If
|
||||
you use option 4d0, the Installation Information must accompany
|
||||
the Minimal Corresponding Source and Corresponding Application
|
||||
Code. If you use option 4d1, you must provide the Installation
|
||||
Information in the manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL
|
||||
for conveying Corresponding Source.)
|
||||
|
||||
5. Combined Libraries.
|
||||
|
||||
You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
|
||||
Library side by side in a single library together with other library
|
||||
facilities that are not Applications and are not covered by this
|
||||
License, and convey such a combined library under terms of your
|
||||
choice, if you do both of the following:
|
||||
|
||||
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based
|
||||
on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities,
|
||||
conveyed under the terms of this License.
|
||||
|
||||
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library that part of it
|
||||
is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to find the
|
||||
accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Revised Versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License.
|
||||
|
||||
The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
|
||||
of the GNU Lesser General Public License from time to time. Such new
|
||||
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
|
||||
differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
|
||||
|
||||
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
|
||||
Library as you received it specifies that a certain numbered version
|
||||
of the GNU Lesser General Public License "or any later version"
|
||||
applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and
|
||||
conditions either of that published version or of any later version
|
||||
published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library as you
|
||||
received it does not specify a version number of the GNU Lesser
|
||||
General Public License, you may choose any version of the GNU Lesser
|
||||
General Public License ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
|
||||
|
||||
If the Library as you received it specifies that a proxy can decide
|
||||
whether future versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License shall
|
||||
apply, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of any version is
|
||||
permanent authorization for you to choose that version for the
|
||||
Library.

feedgenerator
|

=============
|
||||
|
||||
This module can be used to generate web feeds in both ATOM and RSS format.
|
||||
They included PodcastGenerator furthermore includes all of Apples RSS
|
||||
extension for Podcasts.
|
||||
|
||||
:copyright: 2013 by Lars Kiesow
|
||||
:license: FreeBSD and LGPL, see license.* for more details.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
Create a Feed
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
To create a feed simply instanciate the FeedGenerator class and insert some
|
||||
data::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> from feedgenerator.feed import FeedGenerator
|
||||
>>> fg = FeedGenerator()
|
||||
>>> fg.id('http://lernfunk.de/media/654321')
|
||||
>>> fg.title('Some Testfeed')
|
||||
>>> fg.author( {'name':'John Doe','email':'john@example.de'} )
|
||||
>>> fg.link( href='http://example.com', rel='alternate' )
|
||||
>>> fg.logo('http://ex.com/logo.jpg')
|
||||
>>> fg.subtitle('This is a cool feed!')
|
||||
>>> fg.link( href='http://larskiesow.de/test.atom', rel='self' )
|
||||
>>> fg.language('en')
|
||||
|
||||
Note that for the methods which set fields that can occur more than once in
|
||||
a feed you can use all of the following ways to provide data:
|
||||
|
||||
- Provide the data for that element as keyword arguments::
|
||||
- Provide the data for that element as dictionary::
|
||||
- Provide a list of dictionaries with the data for several elements::
|
||||
|
||||
Example::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> fg.contributor( name='John Doe', email='jdoe@example.com' )
|
||||
>>> fg.contributor({'name':'John Doe', 'email':'jdoe@example.com'})
|
||||
>>> fg.contributor([{'name':'John Doe', 'email':'jdoe@example.com'}, ...])
|
||||
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
Generate the Feed
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
|
||||
After that you can generate both RSS or ATOM by calling the respective method::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> atomfeed = fg.atom_str(pretty=True) # Get the ATOM feed as string
|
||||
>>> rssfeed = fg.rss_str(pretty=True) # Get the RSS feed as string
|
||||
>>> fg.atom_file('atom.xml') # Write the ATOM feed to a file
|
||||
>>> fg.rss_file('rss.xml') # Write the RSS feed to a file
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
----------------
|
||||
Add Feed Entries
|
||||
----------------
|
||||
|
||||
To add entries (items) to a feed you need to create new FeedEntry objects
|
||||
and append them to the list of entries in the FeedGenerator. The most
|
||||
convenient way to go is to use the FeedGenerator itself for the
|
||||
instantiation of the FeedEntry object::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> fe = fg.add_entry()
|
||||
>>> fe.id('http://lernfunk.de/media/654321/1')
|
||||
>>> fe.title('The First Episode')
|
||||
|
||||
The FeedGenerators method add_entry(...) without argument provides will
|
||||
automaticall generate a new FeedEntry object, append it to the feeds
|
||||
internal list of entries and return it, so that additional data can be
|
||||
added.
|
||||
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
Produce a Podcast
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
|
||||
A podcast is an RSS feed with some additional elements for ITunes. The
|
||||
feedgenerator has a PodcastGenerator class as extension to the default
|
||||
FeedGenerator which you can use to set these additional fields.
|
||||
|
||||
To produce a podcast simply do something like this::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> from feedgenerator.podcast import PodcastGenerator
|
||||
>>> fg = PodcastGenerator()
|
||||
...
|
||||
>>> fg.podcast_str(pretty=True)
|
||||
>>> fg.podcast_file('podcast.xml')
|
||||
|
||||
For the episodes of the podcast you should also use PodcastEntry instead of
|
||||
FeedEntry. However, if you use the add_entry(...) method to generator the
|
||||
entry objects, it will take care of that for you.
|
||||
|
||||
Of cause you can still produce a normat ATOM or RSS feed, even if you use
|
||||
the PodcastGenerator using the {atom,rss}_{str,file} methods.
|
||||
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
Testing the Generator
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
You can test the module by simply executing::
|
||||
|
||||
%> pythom -m feedgenerator
