Overview of RSS#

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.

Connect RSS#

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
  },
})

Overview of Vestaboard#

The Vestaboard API allows you to control a networked, mechanical split-flap display, enabling you to automate the content it shows. By integrating with Pipedream, you can develop serverless workflows that respond to various triggers (like incoming webhooks, emails, or scheduled timers) and push updates to your Vestaboard. You can dynamically display information such as meeting reminders, real-time performance metrics, or custom messages based on events from other apps and services.

Connect Vestaboard#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    vestaboard: {
      type: "app",
      app: "vestaboard",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://platform.vestaboard.com/viewer`,
      headers: {
        "X-Vestaboard-Api-Key": `${this.vestaboard.$auth.api_key}`,
        "X-Vestaboard-Api-Secret": `${this.vestaboard.$auth.api_secret}`,
      },
    })
