Simple RSS Service creates RSS feeds in a modular fashion.
Simple RSS Service (SRSSS) is a versatile tool that facilitates the generation and delivery of RSS feeds through a common interface supported by CGI-enabled web servers. It uses modules to extract items for feeds from diverse sources, paving the way for the creation of a virtual filesystem where feeds can be accessed by CGI clients.
The package comes with all the necessary components required for starting an RSS feed service, including server and CGI programs. SRSSS supports different SQL servers such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MimerSQL. Additionally, it boasts several key features such as a modular and object-oriented C++ design, resource-friendly functions that only parse data when necessary, and an interface for run-time loading of modules.
Moreover, it has a virtual filesystem that operates on shared memory, a trigger system that can be used to request new updates, and an easy-to-use configuration process via configfiles. It was designed to easily integrate into SQL servers and supports various operating systems like NetBSD, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and Linux.
SRSSS comes with several modules that extract items for RSS feed creation. The mod_pgsql module allows the program to extract items for RSS feeds from a PostgreSQL database. It selects an entire column as a description field for the feed or bases it on a pre-formatted string in which variables are replaced with values from columns returned in the SQL query. It also supports triggering of new updates via the SQL LISTEN and NOTIFY functions.
The mod_mysql module integrates the RSS daemon with the MySQL database, enabling it to create RSS feeds based on any information stored in databases on MySQL. It allows users to run most SQL queries supported by the database to extract the required information for feed creation. The mod_mysql module also supports pre-formatted strings to generate descriptions for each RSS item produced.
The mod_mimersql module enables the RSS daemon to fetch items from the MimerSQL database, running any SQL query supported by the database to extract data for creating feeds. It also supports pre-formatted strings to generate descriptions for each RSS item produced.
Lastly, the mod_template is a starting-point template for the development of new modules, though it does not have any significant features on its own. Overall, SRSSS is a sophisticated software that provides a complete solution for creating RSS feeds, with an intuitive interface and an array of powerful tools for customized and comprehensive feed creation.
