00:10 schestowitz-TR; trying python now to convert rss to html
00:10 schestowitz-TR; there are modules that help with it

00:53 schestowitz-TR; some progress made, prototype
01:08 schestowitz-TR; you made the opml parser, i work on epxanding a list of the given feed urls
01:08 schestowitz-TR; that alreaddy works :)

05:13 schestowitz-TR; see feedlist.py on /home/roy (your end)
05:13 schestowitz-TR; you can run it with python3 and the required modules
05:49 techrigthssec; ack
05:52 schestowitz-TR; ramble on faraway keyboard: so we have a kind opml parser and prototype
05:52 schestowitz-TR; for stuff that takes a list of feeds, processing them one at a time, cutting based
05:52 schestowitz-TR; on date ranges, then producing, e.g. to out put file, a page that can be opened in kate/firefox
05:52 schestowitz-TR; (in my case) for quick shelving and posting
05:52 schestowitz-TR; the prototype is not robust to oddball date formats
05:52 schestowitz-TR; but it can ingest a lot of stuff
05:52 schestowitz-TR; it would be nice to also inc. some political news from it
05:52 schestowitz-TR; and patents
05:52 schestowitz-TR; this process saves a lot of time
05:52 techrigthssec; no prototype yet the ability to retain the OPML hiearchy is lost
05:52 techrigthssec; that capability is essential in managing any set larger than a feed or two
05:54 schestowitz-TR; for now I toy around with linear list of feeds
05:54 schestowitz-TR; it works ok
05:54 schestowitz-TR; as long as there is some consistency across feeds
05:54 schestowitz-TR; with opml hierarchy several different output files can be created
05:54 schestowitz-TR; e.g. patents, politics, foss
06:10 schestowitz-TR; a long time ago i made a script, short, for turning the opml into a list of feeds
06:10 schestowitz-TR; i cannot find it in git
06:10 schestowitz-TR; maybe it was a one-liner
06:10 schestowitz-TR; oh,i found it
06:10 schestowitz-TR; how can imake python fail gracefuly and carry on when it fails on one feed
06:10 schestowitz-TR; do you know offhand?
06:10 schestowitz-TR; ran ok
06:10 schestowitz-TR; got the flattened list
06:12 techrigthssec; Working on a hiearchical feed reader but no ETA, still looking at sketches
06:12 techrigthssec; and studies
06:12 techrigthssec; try:
06:12 techrigthssec; except:
06:12 techrigthssec; the except: part takes the type of error if you need to tune the response
06:12 techrigthssec; to the different types of exceptions raised
06:13 techrigthssec; https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/errors.html

06:20 schestowitz-TR; a long time ago i made a script, short, for turning the opml into a list of feeds
06:20 schestowitz-TR; i cannot find it in git
06:21 schestowitz-TR; maybe it was a one-liner
06:21 schestowitz-TR; oh,i found it
06:21 schestowitz-TR; how can imake python fail gracefuly and carry on when it fails on one feed
06:21 schestowitz-TR; do you know offhand?
06:21 schestowitz-TR; ran ok
06:21 schestowitz-TR; got the flattened list
06:21 schestowitz-TR; fantastic! that worked
06:21 schestowitz-TR; doing a test on about 30 random feeds
06:21 schestowitz-TR; it looks like we can expand the scope of coverage withthe time saved
06:25 techrigthssec; Feeds usually indicate a waiting period so the script should take that
06:25 techrigthssec; into account and not re-fetch a feed prior to that interval having passed
06:57 schestowitz-TR; this new workflow is awesome
06:57 schestowitz-TR; ought to have done this years ago
07:37 schestowitz-TR; WTH? "the pandemic has brought some positive changes to Finnish society, experts say." https://yle.fi/a/74-20015259?origin=rssthis new workflow is awesome
07:37 -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-yle.fi | Three years since first Covid diagnosis, Finland looks for pandemic silver linings | News | Yle Uutiset
07:37 schestowitz-TR; ought to have done this years ago
07:49 schestowitz-TR; i have plugged the full list
07:49 schestowitz-TR; over 1k feeds
07:49 schestowitz-TR; for sites that areonline the script hangs forminutes
07:49 schestowitz-TR; this ie all experimental anyway
08:11 techrigthssec; Excellent
08:57 techrigthssec; The fetching of feeds can be massively parallelized, it is not hitting the
08:57 techrigthssec; same site multiple times. The limit is RAM and local bandwidth, afiak
