pyrsslocal: local RSS reader
This extension proposes a way to download new posts from blogs and to navigate through them with a couple of HTML pages managed by a local python server using a SQLite database:
from pyrsslocal import rss_update_run_server fLOG (OutputPrint = True) xml_blogs = "subscriptions.xml" dbfile = "rss_posts.db3" rss_update_run_server(dbfile, xml_blogs)
The previous example takes a dump of blogs url coming from the former Google Reader (see below), downloads RSS streams, loads everything into a database (SQLlite format), and opens a local web application to read them, mark them, or search their titles. The XML file which describes the blogs looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<opml version="1.0">
<body>
<!--
<outline text=""
title=""
type="rss"
xmlUrl=""
htmlUrl=""/>
-->
<outline text="XD blog"
title="XD blog"
type="rss"
xmlUrl="http://www.xavierdupre.fr/blog/xdbrss.xml"
htmlUrl="http://www.xavierdupre.fr/blog/xd_blog.html" />
</body>
</opml>
.. only:: html

The design is not very efficient. It could be faster using a templating library such a jinja2.
