How well supported is the #JSONFeed format?
I'm thinking about whether it's feasible to only serve it instead of RSS

I needed to generate RSS, Atom, and JSON feeds in Go. Came across `gorilla/feeds` which fit the bill perfectly.

Unfortunately, like the rest of their projects, this became abandonware late last year. I've created a fork which I will be maintaining moving forward and can be found here: https://github.com/gopherlibs/feedhub

You can follow this project and my other Go libraries on Mastodon here: @GopherLibs

#golang #go #rss #jsonfeed

Added support for JSON Feed to @FarmingtonToday and it looks greats on Inoreader (and should work on other feed readers that support JSON Feed). FT supported RSS, but JSON Feed also provides images, not just text.

A link to the JSON Feed is on FT's about page: https://farmington.today/about.html

I used a combination of Markdown and Jekyll, which was already creating FT’s RSS and HTML.

#RSS #JSONFEED #JEKYLL

The attached image is how Farmington Today now looks on Inoreader. Fun rainy-day project.

For further readings by seems like good good information to have regarding #RSS, #Atom, and #JSONFeed: https://fishbowl.pastiche.org/2002/10/21/http_conditional_get_for_rss_hackers

Got me thinking:

What do you use for a #FeedReader, if anything?

Do they a “for publishers” page?

Will this weekend be the time I add #RSS, #Atom, and #JSONFeed to my site?

Or, will it be another round of reverse psychology where I’m like, “I’d like to do this thing; shouldn’t take long.” And my inner procrastinator is like, “Nah. You should finish what you started (the web shop ).”

ps. I’ve seen 2 feed approaches. One is everything on the site. The other is just the last n months or posts. What I haven’t found is the user preference or recommendation from the standards.

Thoughts?

🖋 “Let's POSSE to Mastodon with a JSON Feed and a GitHub Action”

After building a Node script for my own POSSE needs, I thought it would be good if other people could also use it. I knew not many people would be able to use the script as-is, so I built a GitHub Action that is much simpler to use, without losing any feature, even gaining some!

#FontAwesome needs a #JSONfeed icon. You can support one on GitHub. https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/issues/11106

We'll call this alpha of the 8fold Syndication library I've been playing with: https://github.com/8fold/php-syndication

Feedback encouraged; issues, PRs, or DMs work best.

Odd errors: Github Actions is unable to find 2 classes across four tests. For #JSONFeed it's the Items class - for #RSS it's the item class.

Runs on my machine (famously quoted). Dumping the autoload didn't seem to help. I'm pretty sure it's a namespace issue.

Need to get back to client work. Let me know what you think.

#RSS, as a format, specified here: https://cyber.harvard.edu/rss/rss.html

Feels exceptionally loose and string-based compared to #Atom and #JSONFeed.

Given many of us call Atom feeds RSS, I'm debating on long-term support in this library. As in 1.0 has it - 2.0 doesn't - and there won't be a lot of releases between 1.0 and 2.0.

RSS is the oldest of the 3 and I can't find any organization that's taken ownership of it for further development. Atom is at still part of the w3c. And JSON Feed is just starting.

#now my website supports hotkeys for pagination actions and #JSONFeed with #RSS feeds in almost every section pages!

Check this examples:
* Hotkeys pagination: https://toby3d.me/plays/
* JSONFeed: https://toby3d.me/tracks/feed.json
* RSS: https://toby3d.me/tracks/feed.rss

#TIL You can read #HackerNews posts using a #RSS, #Atom, or #JSONfeed reader. A lot more efficeient than visiting the webpage itself. See https://edavis.github.io/hnrss/

I'm still stuck looking at #websub, and also #jsonfeed, trying to work out if they're sensible to apply for moving data around.

WebSub, and JSON Feed both heavily give blogs as examples, I think technically, WebSub should be great for moving data between services, providing you take a loose interpretation of the standard...

@switchingsocial@mastodon.at And if you want to subscribe to a RSS feed from the start, I suggest you use my new tool (in beta): https://rewind.website/

It’s aimed ad podcasts, but can work for about any kind of feed. It can be self-hosted and is shared under the AGPL.
