Track2rss script allows tracking of UPS, Fedex and USPS packages with RSS feed.
The track2rss project is a set of scripts designed to convert tracking information for packages from various carriers to the RSS format. This project was inspired by a similar project written by Jason Young. Currently, users can take advantage of support for carriers such as UPS, Fedex Air and Ground, and the US Postal Service (USPS) through a set of XSLT templates and a Perl wrapper.
Looking to the future, track2rss developers hope to extend their support to more carriers such as DHL, and potentially cater to other formats including Atom. Additionally, the team has their sights set on incorporating additional programming languages like PHP and Java.
Recent updates to the track2rss project include an auto-guess feature for carrier type when the type is not provided, gzip support to reduce bandwidth, a change in the output MIME type to 'text/xml' and the addition of OpenSearch 1.0 support.
Overall, the track2rss project is an excellent tool for those who need to track packages from various carriers and want to keep all of their information in a standardized format for easy access. With continued updates to improve its functionality, this software is definitely worth checking out.
