The test suite was failing on my laptop for some mysterious reason. After investigation, it turns out I still had an older version of html2text there which triggered a change in the output. We had...
View Articleadd failing test for issue #5
We do not need to see the output of that feed, actually: we just want to parse it. Therefore, make sure we can test any .xml file provided even if it does not have a matching .mbx. It is a little...
View Articlefix parsing of empty links
For some obscure reason, with the test feed provided in #5, the resulting link is no available in the feed at all, which crashes the normalize routine. That is because urlparse.urlsplit returns a...

The recent changes page can include multiple posts with the same GUID, as the GUID is simply the URL of the page. In blog posts, that's usually fine because we don't want to act every time a blog post...

We used to completely crash when a feed had invalid or missing dates. After reviewing the standards, it turns out this is not quite valid behavior: RSS 0.90 and 0.91, for example, do not have dates at...
View Articleexpand and cleanup date validation routines
We used to have a long list of fields. Now we just iterate over the item, then the feed, and look for the fields we want. It's cleaner visually and might even make some feeds validate, as we now look...

This behaves better than the feedparser date parser in most scenarios. Still needs unit tests and dependency checks. Closes: #6
View Articlehandle broken pipe correctly from plugins
Before this, doing "feed2exec parse foo | head" would yield an error message for *every* feed item. This silences the warnings completely.
