Error retrieving RSS feed

Open dan-da opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

I just installed shellcaster and the first feed I tried to load failed. I've just loaded it in a couple other podcast players, so the feed is fine.

feed url: https://www.terraintheory.net/blogs/podcast/tagged/podcast.atom

Also, the error message is mostly useless: "Error retrieving RSS feed".

I'm guessing maybe it is a TLS error, but since it doesn't tell me or given any option for more details, that is just guessing.

I still get the error after building with:

cargo install --no-default-features  --features "native_certs,native_tls" shellcaster

also tried

cargo install --no-default-features  --features "native_tls" shellcaster

same error

Your request probably works fine but shellcaster fails at parsing the response because this is not an RSS feed but Atom. The crate in use by shellcaster only handles rss: https://docs.rs/rss/latest/rss/ I agree that the error message could be improved wrt what exactly fails
