"Multiple RSS Feed" dashlet for Alfresco Share

Unlike the default dashlet provided by Alfresco, this dashlet allows you to subscribe to several feeds!
The dashlet aggregates multiple feeds, sorted by date (a color can be selected for each feed to differentiate feed items).

Building the module

Check out the project if you have not already done so

    git clone git://github.com/atolcd/alfresco-dashlet-rss-multiple.git

An Ant build script is provided to build JAR file OR AMP file containing the custom files.

To build JAR file, run the following command from the base project directory:

    ant dist-jar

If you want to build AMP file, run the following command:

    ant dist-amp
