cws2atom

A script to generate an Atom feed from Chrome Web Store reviews and support feedback

It will grab reviews and support feedback in all languages, including replies.

Requirements

• Python (tested on version 3.5)
• pyatom

Usage

python3 cws2atom.py EXTENSION_ID [NUM_RESULTS]

where:

• EXTENSION_ID is the extension's ID on the Chrome Webstore, e.g. efdhoaajjjgckpbkoglidkeendpkolai
• NUM_RESULTS is an optional parameter specifying the number of reviews to download and the number of support posts to download. Reviews and support posts are ordered in descending order of time, so only the beginning NUM_RESULTS are selected. The default is 100, which seems to be the maximum that the Chrome Webstore will take.

The Atom feed will be written to standard output.

It may be more helpful to use this in conjunction with a RSS reader such as Liferea, which can be configured to invoke cws2atom.
