;; This module allows to create and change entries in an Org-mode
;; file triggered by items in an RSS feed. The basic functionality is
;; geared toward simply adding items found in a feed as outline nodes
;; in an Org file, but using hooks, other actions can be performed
;; including changing entries based on changes of items in the feed.
2009-03-24 15:40:11 +00:00
;;
;; Selecting feeds and target locations
;; -----------------------------------
;;
;; This module is configured through a single variable, `org-feed-alist'.
;; Here is an example, using a notes/tasks feed from reQall.com.
;;
;; (setq org-feed-alist
;; '(("ReQall"
;; "http://www.reqall.com/user/feeds/rss/a1b2c3....."
;; "~/org/feeds.org" "ReQall Entries")
2009-03-24 15:40:11 +00:00
;;
;; With this setup, the command `M-x org-feed-update-all' will
;; collect new entries in the feed at the given URL and create
;; entries as subheadings under the "ReQall Entries" heading in the
;; file "~/org.feeds.org". You can then change and even move these
;; entries, and they will not be added again (see below).
;; In addition to these standard elements, additional keyword-value
;; pairs are possible as part of a feed setting. For example, here
;; we de-select entries with a title containing
;; "reQall is typing what you said"
;; using the `:filter' argument:
2009-03-24 15:40:11 +00:00
;;
;; (setq org-feed-alist
;; '(("ReQall"
;; "http://www.reqall.com/user/feeds/rss/a1b2c3....."
;; "~/org/feeds.org" "ReQall Entries"
;; :filter my-reqall-filter)))
2009-03-24 15:40:11 +00:00
;;
2009-03-25 21:45:57 +00:00
;; (defun my-reqall-filter (e)
;; (if (string-match "reQall is typing what you said"
;; (plist-get e :title))
2009-03-25 21:45:57 +00:00
;; nil
;; e)

;; Keeping track of previously added entries
;; -----------------------------------------
2009-03-24 15:40:11 +00:00
;;
;; Since Org allows you to delete, archive, or move outline nodes,
2009-03-25 21:45:57 +00:00
;; org-feed.el needs to keep track of which feed items have been added
;; before, so that they will not be added again. For this, org-feed.el
;; stores information in a special drawer, FEEDSTATUS, under the heading
;; that received the input of the feed. For this reason, each feed must
;; have its own headline in an Org file. You should add FEEDSTATUS
;; to your list of drawers in the files that receive feed input:

;; ----------------
;;
;; org-feed.el is based on ideas by Brad Bozarth who implemented a
;; similar mechanism using shell and awk scripts, and who in this
;; way made me for the first time look into an RSS feed, showing
;; how simple this really was. Because I wanted to include a
;; solution into Org with as few dependencies as possible, I
;; reimplemented his ideas in Emacs Lisp.
;;; Code:
2009-03-24 09:20:30 +00:00
(require 'org)
(declare-function url-retrieve-synchronously "url" (url))
(defgroup org-feed nil
"Options concerning RSS feeds as inputs for Org files."
:tag "Org ID"
:group 'org)
;;;###autoload
(defcustom org-feed-alist nil
"Alist specifying RSS feeds that should create inputs for Org.
Each entry in this list specified an RSS feed tat should be queried
to create inbox items in Org. Each entry is a list with the following items:
name a custom name for this feed
URL the Feed URL
file the target Org file where entries should be listed
headline the headline under which entries should be listed
Additional arguments can be given using keyword-value pairs. Many of these
specify functions that receive one or a list of \"entries\" as their single
argument. An entry is a property list that describes a feed item. The
property list has properties for each field in the item, for example `:title'
for the `<title>' field and `:pubDate' for the publication date. In addition,
it contains the following properties:
`:item-full-text' the full text in the <item> tag
`:guid-permalink' t when the guid property is a permalink
:filter filter-function
A function to select interesting entries in the feed. It gets a single
entry as parameter. It should return the entry if it is relevant, or
nil if it is not.
2009-03-25 21:45:57 +00:00
:template template-string
The default action on new items in the feed is to add them as children
under the headline for the feed. The template describes how the entry
should be formatted. If not given, it defaults to
`org-feed-default-template'.
2009-03-25 21:45:57 +00:00
:formatter formatter-function
Instead of relying on a template, you may specify a function to format
the outline node to be inserted as a child. This function gets passed
a property list describing a single feed item, and it should return a
string that is a properly formatted Org outline node of level 1.
:new-handler function
If adding new items as children to the outline is not what you want
to do with new items, define a handler function that is called with
a list of all new items in the feed, each one represented as a property
list. The handler should do what needs to be done, and org-feed will
mark all items given to this handler as \"handled\", i.e. they will not
be passed to this handler again in future readings of the feed.
When the handler is called, point will be at the feed headline.
:changed-handler function
This function gets passed a list of all entries that have been
handled before, but are now still in the feed and have *changed*
since last handled (as evidenced by a different sha1 hash).
When the handler is called, point will be at the feed headline.

;1. parse all items
;2. filter with user filter
;3. Remove GUIDs that we have already *added* before
;4. Format, using user or built-in formatter
;5. add new items
;6. Store the guids from step 2, after the filtering
; This means that the feed could go back, have the entry
; pass the filter, and then it will be added.;
;Each item will be added once, when it first passes the filter.
