feedManager
feedManager is the primary interface used for reading and parsing website RSS and content feeds. It can handle auto-detection of the feed type and will return a feedChannel object that represents the feed.
feedManager can be used optionally with the cacheController for feed caching.
feedManager supports RSS1/2 and Atom feeds. Additional types can be added by updating the ReaderMap array and implementing a new reader.
Example usage:
Fetch a feed and iterate
$oFeed = feedManager::getInstance()->fetch('http://www.theregister.co.uk/headlines.atom');
foreach ( $oFeed->getItemSet() as $oFeedItem ) {
// do something...
echo $oFeedItem->getTitle(), '';
}
Fetch a feed, cache the results and iterate
$oCacheWriter = new cacheWriterFile(system::getConfig()->getPathTemp().'/feeds');
$oCacheWriter->setUseSubFolders(false);
feedManager::setCache(new cacheController($oCacheWriter));
$oFeed = feedManager::getInstance()->fetch('http://www.theregister.co.uk/headlines.atom');
foreach ( $oFeed->getItemSet() as $oFeedItem ) {
// do something...
echo $oFeedItem->getTitle(), '';
}
