This simple Wacko Action is based on magpierss, an easy to use php api.
The action displays a feed in the typical WackoWiki style or in a new div-container-style if divclass-option is used.
It uses the Wacko functions for the links.
It has these these parameters:
url="http://..." assigns the URL of the feed.
divclass="xxx" – produces a <div class="xxx"><div class="inner">...</div></div> code instead of the ugly fieldsets (so you can use floating feed-boxes)
title="no" turns the title off (default is yes).
title=xxx – set title to #xxx#
max=X limits the output to X items.
style="css-style" applies the css-style to the item-paragraphs (not used with divclass-option)
time=yes turns a time index on (default is no).
The result can be checked at my Workpage. The del.icio.us links are created with {{feed url="http://del.icio.us/rss/seebi/rdf" divclass="floatbox" title="Last RDF Links" time=yes max=5}}
Installation
To use this action in your WackoWiki, you need to put the sources in your actions folder and a magpierss distribution to actions/magpierss.
Vlad Janvarev: When I using this script on Russian RSS (in LiveJournal autogeneric feeds), I had a problem with symbol encodings – all Russian symbols looks like '?'. Intuitively I find the solution: you must wrap into tryUtfDecode() function all output from RSS parser. For example, use not
<?php echo $desc; ?>
but
<?php echo $this->tryUtfDecode($desc); ?>
I don't khow why, but it works :)
Parse Problems
If there are problems with the parser, update to a newer magpierss version.
