Real Simple Syndication
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 Instapaper API offers a streamlined way to interact with saved articles. With it, you can automate your reading list management by adding new items, moving through folders, or marking them as read or unread. Integrating the Instapaper API with Pipedream lets you create custom workflows, triggering actions in Instapaper or other apps based on specific conditions or schedules.
