Universal Feed Parser is a Python module for downloading and parsing
|
|
syndicated feeds. It can handle RSS 0.90, Netscape RSS 0.91, Userland
|
|
RSS 0.91, RSS 0.92, RSS 0.93, RSS 0.94, RSS 1.0, RSS 2.0, Atom 0.3,
|
|
Atom 1.0, and CDF feeds. It also parses several popular extension
|
|
modules, including Dublin Core and Apple's iTunes extensions.
|
|
|
|
To use Universal Feed Parser, you will need Python 2.1 or later.
|
|
Universal Feed Parser is not meant to run standalone; it is a module
|
|
for you to use as part of a larger Python program.
|
|
|
|
Universal Feed Parser is easy to use; the module is self-contained
|
|
in a single file, feedparser.py, and it has one primary public
|
|
function, parse. parse takes a number of arguments, but only one
|
|
is required, and it can be a URL, a local filename, or a raw string
|
|
containing feed data in any format.
