h-feed support

Open fluffy-critter opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

IndieWeb has a bunch of proponents of h-feed now, and some folks seem to be starting to not even bother with RSS/Atom. If it isn’t already supported, adding h-feed might be useful.

The main things are discovery (if a page has an element with class h-feed or provides a link with a rel of feed In the content or the response headers) and subscriptions (find elements with class h-entry and extract the various other information via microformats). The parsing aspect definitely has libraries available.

This is planned - for sure. Right now it is of lower priority because RSS/Atom support is so widely used. But, yeah, if h-feed is detected, it will be offered as a subscription option next to any RSS/Atom/JSON feeds discovered.

Thank you for filing these issues!
