This is a great read and I will be sure to use this when a project I have in mind needs to parse a variety of feeds. So far the default .NET SyndicationFeed class works well though.
Always wished RSS/ATOM had a dedicated field for images. Why didn’t they? Currently it always seems to involve some inline HTML in a CDATA element. Pretty gross.
- rambambram 4y agoThere's "enclosure" for RSS. And Atom can have "<link rel='enclosure'>". How I parse enclosures in my own timeline you can see here: https://www.heyhomepage.com/?module=timeline&post=4 https://www.heyhomepage.com/?module=timeline&post=4 (also with a nice link to the original source)
- lloydatkinson 4y agoI did try that but none of the rss apps I tried displayed the image
- rambambram 4y agoThat's a shame, because I think images - and maybe even short videos - can make RSS-based timelines way more rich in content.
