Reading List

by JeroenH

Your personal reading list.

Think you have a particularly interesting list of feeds you subscribe to? Share it with everyone! Or do you just want to read all your family holiday stories in one central place?

This is an aggregator for Atom and RSS feeds. It supports SVG and xml:base in feeds. The update interval and the number of entries shown on the "Planet" is configurable.

jstauss,
Yes, for different topics setup multiple copies of this application.

Is is possible to create different RSS feeds for separate topics? For example, I follow a lot of political news but I also follow other things. Can I create a feed for politics and a separate feed for the other news I follow? Any help would be great! Thanks!

Спасибо за хорошую программу! Прошу вас поправить парсер. При ошибке парсера (если хоть одна лента будет содержать ошибку синтаксиса) программа отказывается работать и показывает страницу 404 - даже невозможно удалить ленту, которая содержит ошибку.
Также есть ДРУГАЯ ошибка: когда новости какой-то ленты не показываются, а в списке видно пустое место.
Заранее благодарен! Желаю вам удачи!

@ JeroenH
Sorry for misunderstanding. I want to create my own feeds (not fetch from any website), and then fetch those feeds using my application, or subscribe those feeds from any other application. Can i do that with this app.

@ lifeh2o

What your needs to do is basically was this application is doing. It fetches feeds from a site an displays the content. You can take a look at the source code, since it's just a zip file.

Hi, I am a student and making an application that fetches the scores from a website using feeds.
When i saw this application i thought that it would help me by creating my own feeds and test them with my application.
How can i do this?

Never mind! Now that I got a closer look at it, I see why you were saying Category.

By KingAntonius, # Nov 14, 2009 8:37:28 AM

I might be misunderstanding the use of "category" in the above posts, but with the way I'm reading it, wouldn't it be easier (coding wise) to just make a folder system. For instance, a folder for news, tech articles, manges etc?

@ creegah:
The feed you've been trying to create is in the rss 0.91 format. There are a lot of rss versions. I can't support all of them, but I could do some extra effort to parse more of them. Currently, this application supports RSS 2.0 and Atom.

If you want to create your own feed, Atom is definitely the way to go. Embedding images and other content is easy to do. The feed in my screenshot is Tim Bray's. It is considered to be a good test case for Atom compatibility of feed readers (Opera used to display it fine, but regressed with 9.60).

Hi,
How do I create a feed as nice as the one you have pictures on this page in your example? I've been searching the internet and can only find very basic feed instructions that have only text.
Thanks!

Hi,
Nice app.
I got inspired to do my own rss feed and followed the directions on this page exactly: http://www.downes.ca/cgi-bin/page.cgi?post=56
The feed I created shows up fine in my opera browser feeds but it does not add to Reading List at all. The name does not even appear - just a checkbox. The form of the url is like this http://www.domainname.com/myfeed.rss
Also, can I add my own myopera blog feed? Whenever I try to click the rss symbol in the address bar of my blog page and choose one of the options it gives me a "not allowed to do that" page.
Thanks for any help.
If we could SORT the feeds on the page somehow, it would be nice. Maybe just a demarcation line between feeds and a title for each group.

By creegah, # Sep 26, 2009 5:11:13 PM

Glad you like it... What exactly do you mean when you say "a category system"?

I can think of two options:
- a category is something you define yourself and every feed is in one or more categories;
- a category is embedded in the feed you subscribe to and you only want to show posts of a given category (f.ex. only posts tagged "opera", although my.opera doesn't add the tags to the feed)

The first one is rather easy to solve: just run multiple instances of the service, err, application at different locations: ...operaunite.com/operaplanet/ and ...operaunite.com/techblogs/, but it would be possible to integrate it into the code, with a bit of work.

The second one isn't too hard to implement, but the feed has to properly show the category.

By JeroenH, # Sep 22, 2009 8:17:53 PM

Very cool app.
I think its missing a Category system.
