RSS Overview#

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.

Trigger Code#

import rss from "../../app/rss.app.mjs";
import { defineSource } from "@pipedream/types";
import rssCommon from "../common/common.mjs";
export default defineSource({
    ...rssCommon,
    key: "rss-random-item-in-multiple-feeds",

                rss,
                "urls",
            ],
        },
    },
    dedupe: "unique",
    hooks: {
        async activate() {
            // Try to parse the feed one time to confirm we can fetch and parse.
            // The code will throw any errors to the user.
            for (const url of this.urls) {
                await this.rss.fetchAndParseFeed(url);
            }
        },
    },
    async run() {
        const items = [];
        for (const url of this.urls) {
            const feedItems = await this.rss.fetchAndParseFeed(url);
            items.push(...feedItems);
        }
        const item = items[Math.floor(Math.random() * items.length)];
        const meta = this.generateMeta(item);
        this.$emit(item, meta);
    },
});
