Bridge request

For Patreon https://www.patreon.com/

General information

Would be nice to easily follow updates from Patreon users.

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

  • Which information would you like to see?
    Updates by specific users

  • How should the information be displayed/formatted?
    Similar to other such blog pages

  • Which of the following parameters do you expect?

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

Options

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

I quickly checked the available data, which unfortunately doesn't include any posts (only goals, introduction and the Patreon counter). Everything else needs to be requested via their API, which requires going through the authentication process (and the key cannot be shared):
https://docs.patreon.com/#clients-and-api-keys

The project you mentioned also requires the API token:
https://github.com/splitbrain/patreon-rss/blob/9b0a27c159dfabeb5c289a8eeea9eafce80e3a2e/PatreonRSS.php#L3-L4

Maybe I'm missing something.
Let me know if you or anyone knows how to access data without a private API key.
