Here's a scary idea.. A plugin that can aggregate feeds from other
|
|
|
|
|
locations. Presumably there would need to be a cron job to build the wiki
|
|
|
|
|
periodically, and each time it's built any new items would be turned into
|
|
|
|
|
pages etc. There might also need to be a way to expire old items, unless
|
|
|
|
|
you wanted to keep them forever.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This would allow ikiwiki to work as a kind of a planet, or at least a
|
|
|
|
|
poor-man's news aggregator.

|
|
|
|
|
* XML::Feed has a very nice interface, may require valid feeds though.
|
|
|
|
|
* How to store GUIDs? Maybe as meta tags on pages, although that would need
|
|
|
|
|
caching of such metadata somewhere.
|
|
|
|
|
* How to configure which feeds to pull, how often, and where to put the
|
|
|
|
|
pulled entries? One way would be command line/config file, but I think
|
|
|
|
|
better would be to use preprocessor directives in a wiki page, probably
|
|
|
|
|
the same page that inlines all the pages together.
|
|
|
|
|
* Where to store when a feed was last pulled?

|
So I need:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* A way to store info from the preprocessor directives about what pages
|
|
|
|
|
to pull and expiry.
|
|
|
|
|
* A way to store info on last pull time, guids, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
* Switch for a mode that a) pulls b) expires old c) rebuilds wiki (for cron)
