Feedr Plugin for DocPad

This plugin is able to pull in remote json and xml feeds, convert them to JSON data, and expose them to @feedr.feeds[feedName] for your templates, via the Feedr module.

Install

`` bash
docpad install feedr
`




Usage

$3

First we have to tell Feedr which feeds it should retrieve, you can do this by adding the following to your website's docpad configuration file:

` coffeescript
plugins:
feedr:
feeds:
twitter:
url: "https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=balupton&count=20&include_entities=true&include_rts=true"

someOtherFeedName:
url: "someOtherFeedUrl"
`

Feedr can also clean up responses like "key": {"_content": "the actual value"} (as used on Flickr) to the cleaner "key": 'the actual value". To enable this set clean to true inside your feed configuration like so:

` coffeescript
flickrUser:
url: "http://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.people.getInfo&api_key=#{FLICKR_API_KEY}&user_id=#{FLICKR_USER_ID}&format=json&nojsoncallback=1"
clean: true
`

$3

Then inside your templates, we would do something like the following to render the items:

- Using Eco

` coffeescript


<% for tweet in @feedr.feeds.twitter: %>
<% continue if tweet.in_reply_to_user_id %>

• 
  
  <%=tweet.text%>
  
  

<% end %>


`

- Using CoffeeKup

` coffeescript
ul ->
for tweet in @feedr.feeds.twitter
continue if tweet.in_reply_to_user_id
li datetime: tweet.created_at, ->
a href: "https://twitter.com/#!/#{tweet.user.screen_name}/status/#{tweet.id_str}", title: "View on Twitter", ->
tweet.text
``
