summary: Subscribe to Atom and RSS feeds over pubsub

...

Introduction

============

This module allows Prosody to fetch Atom and RSS feeds for you, and push

new results to subscribers over XMPP.

This module also implements a

[PubSubHubbub](http://pubsubhubbub.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/pubsubhubbub-core-0.3.html)

subscriber, allowing updates be delivered without polling for supporting

feed publishers.

Configuration

=============

This module needs to be be loaded together with

[mod\_pubsub][doc:modules:mod\_pubsub].

For example, this is how you could add it to an existing pubsub

component:

``` lua

Component "pubsub.example.com" "pubsub"

modules_enabled = { "pubsub_feeds" }

feeds = {

  planet_jabber = "http://planet.jabber.org/atom.xml";

  prosody_blog = "http://blog.prosody.im/feed/atom.xml";

}

```

This example creates two nodes, 'planet\_jabber' and 'prosody\_blog'

that clients can subscribe to using

[XEP-0060](http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0060.html). Results are in

[ATOM 1.0 format](http://atomenabled.org/) for easy consumption.

  Option                 Description

  ---------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------

  feeds                  A list of virtual nodes to create and their associated Atom or RSS URL.

  feed\_pull\_interval   Number of minutes between polling for new results (default 15)
