NAME
POE::Component::RSSAggregator - A Simple POE RSS Aggregator
SYNOPSIS
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use POE;
use POE::Component::RSSAggregator;
my @feeds = (
{
url => "http://www.jbisbee.com/rdf/",
name => "jbisbee",
delay => 10,
},
{
url => "http://lwn.net/headlines/rss",
name => "lwn",
delay => 300,
},
);
POE::Session->create(
inline_states => {
_start => \&init_session,
handle_feed => \&handle_feed,
}
);
$poe_kernel->run();
sub init_session
{
my ($kernel, $heap, $session) = @_[KERNEL, HEAP, SESSION];
$heap->{rssagg} = POE::Component::RSSAggregator->new(
debug => 1,
callback => $session->postback("handle_feed"),
tmpdir => '/tmp', # optional caching
);
$kernel->post('rssagg','add_feed',$_) for @feeds;
}
sub handle_feed
{
my ($kernel,$feed) = ($_[KERNEL], $_[ARG1]->[0]);
for my $headline ($feed->late_breaking_news) {
# do stuff with the XML::RSS::Headline object
print $headline->headline . "\n";
}
}USAGE
The premise is this, you watch RSS feeds for new headlines to appear and when they do you trigger an event handle them. The handle_feed event is given a XML::RSS::Feed object every time new headlines are found.
