Create RSS feeds from KM News

Hi all,
is it possible to create RSS feeds from the standard News items created with Form Based Publishing (XML Forms builders)? In other words, instead if just displaying those news items in the portal, can they be displayed in an RSS reader as well?
Since it's all XML I would say it is possible, right?
please advice
Marcel

Hi Marcel,
jRSS - Simple Java RSS Feed Generator
A simple java API to produce Really Simple Syndication (RSS) documents following the specification version 2.0
http://sourceforge.net/projects/jrss/
http://cephas.net/blog/2003/09/07/creating-rss-using-java/
So generate the RSS in the KM folder where your XMLForm datas are saved.
After that create a component that accesses this RSS and shows it. You can use RSS Viewer librarys to achieve this:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/rssview/
So steps are:
1. Create RSS and save as resource in KM.
<b>Create a Repository Service, which creates this RSS and also updates it when contents in the folder changes.</b>
2. Read this resource using a component and create IView from this component.
I am sure that there are lots of other approches to implement this solution.

Create RSS feed from HTML DB?

I've been using a streaming RSS feed extension in Firefox for several months now and get feeds from all over including asktom.oracle.com and http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/htmldb/index.html. Very cool.
Recently I've installed HTML DB and have begun creating some basic reports - nothing very dramatic as I'm just learning. Now I'd like to begin sending out RSS feeds from my HTML DB application to my RSS extension in my Firefox browser but can't find an easy way to do it.
I see several posts of others wishing to do the opposite (read RSS feeds into their HTML DB application) but nothing that shows how to create a feed from HTML DB.
I looked at Tom's description of his method at http://asktom.oracle.com/~sdillon/rss.html but this seems very cumbersome to me - is there an easier way?
I would think that there should be a "create RSS" feed button somewhere in the HTML DB interface when I'm defining the page's attributes.
Thanks in advance for any advice/suggestions.

Actually, Tom's method is not as hard as it looks.
You can really just copy it all into your own procedure and replace the inner query.

How can I create an RSS feed from my Azure Storage Blob?

I'm a Tech Evangelist at Microsoft, based out of Philadelphia. I also have a podcast,
http://indiedevpodcast.wordpress.com/, and was previously hosting my show on PodOmatic.
I made the switch to Azure blog storage today, and I'm able to get the content there:
https://indiedevpodcast.blob.core.windows.net/podcasts/Ep%2016%20Wimbus%20Studios.mp3/
The issue though, is how do I generate an RSS feed from my podcasts in Azure blog storage? It says "file not found", but it opens up Window Media Player and plays the file for me.
*shrug*
Is this what I'm looking for? http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/storage-dotnet-how-to-use-blobs/

Need help with reading RSS feed from SSIS

Hi all,
I am trying to read RSS feed from SSIS by using the Script Component. So far I am able to read some information from the RSS feed from the following items included in the code, Title, PublishDate, LastUpdateTime, Id and Summary.
There are still more item but I am unable to identify the proper data type for the following:
//Output0Buffer.Description = item.Content;
//Output0Buffer.Category = item.Categories;
//Output0Buffer.Comments = item.Summary;
//Output0Buffer.Source = item.SourceFeed;
When I define the data for item.Content as Unicode String in the column properties for the Output column I get the following error message:
Error 1 Cannot implicitly convert type 'System.ServiceModel.Syndication.SyndicationContent' to 'string'
And the same error for the other three variables.
I am using HTTP Connection manager to read the xml link.
I tried to google around for some help but I could not find more information about the datatype.
I appreciate any help if someone can point me to the right solution for reading RSS feed from SSIS.
Code:
/* Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Script Component
* Write scripts using Microsoft Visual C# 2008.
* ScriptMain is the entry point class of the script.*/
using System;
using System.Data;
using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper;
using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper;
using System.ServiceModel.Syndication;
using System.Xml;
using System.Text;
[Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.SSISScriptComponentEntryPointAttribute]
public class ScriptMain : UserComponent
private string url = string.Empty;
private SyndicationFeed feed = null;
private XmlReader reader = null;
public override void PreExecute()
base.PreExecute();
// Get the URL from the Http Connection Manager.
// Note, we're not actually using the connection manager's connection object,
// just it's URL setting. This is because using the .NET connection classes
// give us more flexibility.
reader = XmlReader.Create(Connections.HttpConnection.ConnectionString);
feed = SyndicationFeed.Load(reader);
public override void PostExecute()
base.PostExecute();
reader.Close();
public override void CreateNewOutputRows()
if (feed != null)
foreach (var item in feed.Items)
Output0Buffer.AddRow();
Output0Buffer.Title = item.Title.Text;
Output0Buffer.PublishDate = item.PublishDate;
Output0Buffer.LastUpdatedTime = item.LastUpdatedTime;
Output0Buffer.Link = item.Id;
//Output0Buffer.Description = item.Content;
//Output0Buffer.Category = item.Categories;
//Output0Buffer.Comments = item.Summary;
//Output0Buffer.Source = item.SourceFeed;
Output0Buffer.FeedImage.AddBlobData(ConvertToBytes(item.Summary));
string authorName = string.Empty;
if (item.Authors.Count > 0)
// take the first author
authorName = item.Authors[0].Name;
Output0Buffer.Author = authorName;
Output0Buffer.SetEndOfRowset();
private byte[] ConvertToBytes(TextSyndicationContent content)
if (content != null && !string.IsNullOrEmpty(content.Text))
// convert the string buffer to UTF8 so we can store it in an NTEXT column
var encoding = new UTF8Encoding();
return encoding.GetBytes(content.Text);
return new byte[0];
Thanks in return.

You need to make it running outside SSIS 1st. I just do not see why you need to publish it here at the moment.
And to solve it, doesn't C# has the
VAR datatype so you do not have to guess.

Display RSS feed from external site on my page

HI,
I need to know if it is possible with CFMX7 to grab rss feeds
from a remote location and just display it on my site?
How to?

well, cf8 has a new <cffeed> tag... and though i have
not ever needed to
use it (i prefer to create my feeds manually), it is
*supposed to* make
creating and consuming (readin) rss and atom feeds a
breeze... but
judging by many a blog posts, it is not without bugs...
google <cffeed>, and check out ray camden's blog at
coldfusionjedi.com
for many posts on this tag
but there is really nothing stopping you from using
<cfhttp> + <cfxml>
tags in cf7 to achieve what you want...
as for porting cf7 apps to cf8 - it is usually painless, but
depending
on the complexity of your server/hardware configuration, it
may require
close attention to minute details
just to check if you code runs fine in cf8, there is a code
analyser
available in cf admin.

RSS Feed from dynamic asp page...?

I want to create an RSS feed from the dynamic database content on this page, as well as many others like it, so whenever a new database record is added to the sql server database, the rss feed is automatically updated as well with a new entry. I have wracked my brain on this for days but i believe it might be a pretty straightforward process. Any ideas...??

How do I insert RSS feed from my blogspot to my iWeb?

Hi Guys,
Really need some help here. I'm new to iWeb. I have been blogging using Blogspot.com.
Right now, I would like to get RSS feed from my blog and display it in the iWeb. How should I do it?
Please advise.
Thanks

Hello Kenny welcome to the forum.
Create a hyperlink to yoursite.com/RSSfeedpath.xml.
There's info on Google if you search for RSS icon in address bar where you can add a code into the head section of your html page post-publish to have RSS icon in addressbar that when clicked displays the RSS feed.
You can also place an iframe code into an iWeb snippet to embed the rss file into your page but instead of http use feed:// so the iframed URL looks like this:
feed://website.com/RSSfeedpath.xml

Not sure what you mean exactly.

RSS feed from Snow Leopard server

I want to host an RSS feed from my server. What settings would be necessary to accomplish this?

The first things to do would be to download a program that will maintain your RSS feed. Podcast spitter from the app store was the top hit when I did a search. I've not used it, but it appears that it'll do the trick.
Next, just create a website using the web service in Snow Leopard Server.
Point Podcast Spitter at the share that hosts your web site and that should do the trick.
When you upload your RSS feed, all the stuff needed to make it an RSS feed should go with it.
Granted it's a VERY thinned out version of the steps needed to take, but the concepts are correct.
If you need a more detailed description, write back with more info about how your server is set up and how it's connected to the internet.

For example : https://forums.sdn.sap.com/rss/rssmessages.jspa?forumID=41

I have also done the proxy configuration in portal. I get this following error.
"Error while using XML iView, please contact your system administrator". Is there some other configuration to be done ?
My EP version is EP 7.0 SP 9.

Exporting my RSS Feeds from Mail

Is there a way to export my RSS feeds from Mail 3.0 so that I can then reimport them in another iMac at work. I don't have (nor do I want to purchase .Mac for synchronizing), but if there is a way to just export those and import them into Mail on another machine, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks!
- Marcelo

It's pretty crude but I have an Applescript which scans the Mail RSS folders and dumps an OPML file on your desktop. I wrote it to get a copy of all my feeds for Google Reader - hopefully it'll work for you too...
