RSS generation

[Jesper Olsen]

Hi,

I'm looking for a python module which can help generate RSS feeds
in various formats - 0.92, 1.0, 2.0, atom etc...

Does something like that like that exist - non zope based?

That's for parsing RSS, not generating it. While RSS isn't that hard to
generate, it would still be kinda nice to have a generator that knew about
all the variations on the theme.

About a year ago I wrote PyRSS2Gen to generate RSS2 from
a Python data structure. It's at
http://www.dalkescientific.com/Python/PyRSS2Gen.html
It doesn't support the different variations.

I didn't come across any other tool to generate RSS output
as as standalone library, much less the different versions.

Feel free to use it as a base for future work. The
only bug I've come across is with how it deals with
Unicode, but I've not pushed it that hard.

Its not python, but there is a rss generation tool in beta - FeedForAll
http://www.feedforall.com

Maybe worth a look
