Feed Toolbelt

Powerful CLI tool for working with various feed types such as RSS, Atom and JSON feeds.

Why

Feeds are awesome, but working with them is cumbersome. There are itchy edges and many standards. Feed Toolbelt makes the heavylifting for you while you get to create awesomeness.

How

Install using go toolchain:

GOEXPERIMENT=rangefunc go install github.com/mkadirtan/feed-toolbelt@latest

Find feeds on a specific website:

feed-toolbelt find nooptoday.com

Usage

feed-toolbelt find [<url>] [flags]

Arguments:
[<url>]    target url, optional in case piped input is given

Flags:
-h, --help                    Show context-sensitive help.

-p, --pipe                    Use this flag if you pipe HTML content into this command. Piping without using this flag will result in interpreting piped input as
target url
-l, --[no-]strategy-header    Toggle header strategy
-c, --[no-]strategy-page      Toggle page strategy
-b, --[no-]strategy-common    Toggle common strategy
-g, --[no-]validate           Validate feed URLs contain actual feeds

Examples

feed-toolbelt find nooptoday.com

curl https://nooptoday.com | feed-toolbelt find nooptoday.com --pipe

feed-toolbelt find nooptoday.com --strategy-common

For more information run:

feed-toolbelt --help

The contents below are my personal notes. If you are interested in using this tool you might be interested in the future plans for this project.

Roadmap

Publish on Brew

I can publish as tap, if it gets recognition it may turn into an official package even!

Wait until rangefunc is not experimental because it will surely confuse other people and complicate the build process.

If rangefunc doesn't get merged in a short time, I can even remove the experimental part, because it is not necessary for this project.

Renaming

If I can't find useful commands to include in this tool, I can rename the tool to feed-finder.
