XML::RSS::Parser is a lightweight liberal parser of RSS feeds. This parser
|
|
is "liberal" in that it does not demand compliance of a specific RSS version
|
|
and will attempt to gracefully handle tags it does not expect or understand.
|
|
The parser's only requirements is that the file is well-formed XML and
|
|
remotely resembles RSS. Roughly speaking, well formed XML with a channel
|
|
element as a direct sibling or the root tag and item elements etc.
|
|
|
|
There are a number of advantages to using this module then just using
|
|
a standard parser-tree combination. There are a number of different RSS
|
|
formats in use today. In very subtle ways these formats are not entirely
|
|
compatible from one to another. XML::RSS::Parser makes a couple assumptions
|
|
to "normalize" the parse tree into a more consistent form. For instance,
|
|
it forces channel and item into a parent-child relationship.
