with RSS and AirNow?
Retrieve multiple RSS feeds and return a merged array of items sorted by date See documentation
The RSS app allows users to automatically fetch and parse updates from web feeds. This functionality is pivotal for staying abreast of content changes or updates from websites, blogs, and news outlets that offer RSS feeds. With Pipedream, you can harness the RSS API to trigger workflows that enable a broad range of automations, like content aggregation, monitoring for specific keywords, notifications, and data synchronization across platforms.
module.exports = defineComponent({
props: {
rss: {
type: "app",
app: "rss",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
// Retrieve items from a sample feed
const Parser = require('rss-parser');
const parser = new Parser();
const stories = []
// Replace with your feed URL
const url = "https://pipedream.com/community/latest.rss"
const feed = await parser.parseURL(url);
const { title, items } = feed
this.title = title
if (!items.length) {
$end("No new stories")
}
this.items = items
},
})
The AirNow API provides access to real-time air quality data from across the United States, offering insights into the AQI (Air Quality Index) for various pollutants. With this data, developers can create applications that inform users about the air quality in their immediate environment or trigger actions based on changes in pollution levels. On Pipedream, one can leverage AirNow's data to automate notifications, integrate environmental data into smart home systems, or even drive data analysis and reporting for health and safety monitoring.
