Обсуждение: Feeds Integration
Hello All,
I plan to move forward with a gborg and events feed. This as a nice
addition of the existing one (beta version on dotgeek.org).
Problem, for the beta news, I had to do a separate scripts to fetch the
news because I don't have them in a database, then add these locally
and fetch them
for the XML feed.
(how ?
$handle = fopen("http://postgresql.dotgeek.org/", "r");
$file_handler = "";
while (!feof($handle))
$file_handler .= fgets($handle, 4096);
if (!ereg("<!-- News -->(.+)<!-- Events -->", $file_handler, $news))
print "error";
$news = str_replace("<tr>\n<td bgcolor=\"#6884A4\">\n<a
name=\"news\">\n<font size=\"+2\"
color=\"#FFFFFF\">News</font></a>\n</td>\n</tr>", "", $news[1]);
$news = ereg_replace("(\n){3,}", "\n", $news);
/*print $news;
print "\n\n\n-------------------------------------------\n\n\n\n";*/
$pattern = "<tr><td><a href=\"(news/[0-9]+\.html)\"
style=\"font-weight: bold; font-size: medium; color: #020169\">";
$pattern .= "([^(</)]+)</a><br>\n<i>Posted on ([0-9]+-[0-9]+-[0-9]+) by
<font color=\"#020169\">([^(</)]+)</font>";
$pattern .= "</i><br>\n([^(</)]+)</td></tr>\n";
$rinfo = array();
$i = 0;
etc etc )
Now, it would be useless to do the same exercise considered that you do
have them in a database. So if I know the db schema, I could possibly
have it to work locally
or upload on my space on your server (thanks Marc !!) something ready
to go.
Ideally (this would work best for me) can someone move on my server
space with you the tables Latest News (gborg) and (events) ? With these
I can do a full test on my box and
upload something ready to go.
For the website integration, I can handle that too but..can I work on
Alexey's beta ? This would allow me to add the feeds links without
having to download
the full site with a CVS checkout and upload something which will have
in any case be modified for Alexey's new layout.
Of course if you want to implement the news feeds sooner, I could do a
fresh checkout, upload, add the changes and leave it to you.
Thanks again for your time and attention ;)
Cheers
David

If it makes any difference, we are currently discussing the possibility of a gradual migration from GBorg to GForge. More discussion to come on -hackers and this list later. Second, we have a reason to want to *import* and RSS feed. Opensourcexperts.com is ready to do PostgreSQL job listings, and they will publish them to us via RSS. Can you help with this once you're done with our RSS export? -- -Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco
David,
For GBorg specifically the news items are stored on the database. I
forget how it was setup for the main website to access the database
however I can provide a query that would give you the information you
are looking for so you can write a program. Having an RSS feed on GBorg
would be great too. If you have something I can you to generate the
files that would be great.
Here is a query for getting the 10 latest news items for showing on
the main page of GBorg.
SELECT project_name,
headline,
body,
submit_date -- date not datetime :(
FROM project_news, project
WHERE (project_news.project_id=project.project_id)
AND (project_news.active=true)
AND (project_news.on_homepage=true)
ORDER BY submit_date DESC
LIMIT 10;
I will leave issues of access to the GBorg database up to Marc.

yes I am doing it, and I try to avoid the same str_replace stuff, so db
is the way to go.

well I have it done, will work with any database data in principle.

Umh, so what about the link ? is it part of the body ? if that is the
case it might be a problem, can solve that, just not the fast way to
produce the xml from db data.
> I will leave issues of access to the GBorg database up to Marc.
I can do it without access to gborg.(In my previous email I was under
the impression that you had a separate table for news, but this is
obviously not the case)
Without db access I can still do the script and add some quick
comments to set it up the right way.
For now the query is fine, but I need to know where the link is stored,
on which row. for example I used something like this for the main news
array("title" => $row["title"], "link" => $row["url"], "description" =>
$row['news'], "author" => $row["author"] , "date" => date("d-M-Y",
$row["date"]));
see I keep on the beta database the url as a separate entity assigned
to the link field in the XML generation.
For link I mean the "click here for the full story." thing.

Here is an updated query. The URL had slipped my mind as one I
build the URLs from knows practices on GBorg and the body is actually
the full story. You'll note as well in the query below that I added in
for getting the submitter of the news item.
SELECT headline AS title,
'http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/'||project_name||'/news/newsfull.php?news_id='||news_id
AS link, -- the fully built url to the news item
body, -- the full news text you may want to abbreviate here
member_name AS author, -- member name on gborg of author
submit_date -- date not datetime :(
FROM project_news, project, member
WHERE (project_news.project_id=project.project_id)
AND (project_news.member_id=member.member_id)
AND (project_news.active=true)
AND (project_news.on_homepage=true)
ORDER BY submit_date DESC
LIMIT 10;

Parsing an existing XML feed is fairly simple© Amazing how important and useful are XML feeds to open source projects. I suspect that many news sites like slashdot generate a huge amount of traffic from their XML syndication. Perhaps we might even get some of the major sites like O'Reilly to use our feeds. Worth a try;) All the best David Costa P.S. am I right assuming that all our discussions are live online on the news list comp.db.postgresql.advocacy ? seems so at http://news.gmane.org/group/gmane.comp.db.postgresql.advocacy/last=/ force_load=t just curious > -- > -Josh Berkus > Aglio Database Solutions > San Francisco >

Sorry Chris, something missing on the query. You need a title too, like pgin.tcl-2.0.0 released title, link, description, date. Now the link is there, description will be the body, date whatever we have but we need the title too. Bottom line, I need something AS title too. In preparation of our tests (I will send the scripts to you) you need to do this: pear install XML_RPC and then pear list to check if pear DB is there too (just in case). Let me know when you are done ;) Cheers David On Feb 19, 2004, at 7:49 PM, Chris Ryan wrote: > >> >> Umh, so what about the link ? is it part of the body ? if that is the >> >> case it might be a problem, can solve that, just not the fast way to >> produce the xml from db data. >> > > Here is an updated query.

It worked great. You can find the output that was generated at
http://gborg.postgresql.org/news.rss. I don't have any RSS tools to
view this with so someone else may want to look at this and verify it's
generating correctly. Other than that it looks good to me.
Once a few people have looked at it and we all like the way it's
working I can setup the cron to generate the file on a regular basis.
Good Job Dave.

Now there is a caveat ;) Rss 1.0 which I used on this script allows only title, link description therefore some parsers might arbitrarily ignore any other tags or complain. Rss 2.0 has author and data capability but is sort of silly because pretends a formation like author@domain.suffix which for spam purposes is rarely used. Let's see if someone else has a feedback I will test it with some other parsers too just in case. So far so good. thanks to Devrim for trying this out.

Dave, > I thought we had agreed not to do that in the end? Had we? When? My memory ... and e-mailbox ... was that the discussion had been tabled because of the lack of an administrator for GForge, and the amount of effort required to migrate off GBorg. However, a number of things have come up in the last few months to make the use of a better collaboration tool more compelling -- enough so that I'm willing to put some work behind it. Also, the GForge community is willing to lend us a significant amount of help, something I don't think anyone looked into. Maybe there were other objections voiced, but I can't find them in the archives. -- -Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco

Well I don't remember the administrator thing, but yes, my recollection is that we had shelved the idea due to the difficulty in migrating people from one platform to the other. > However, a number of things have come up in the last few > months to make the use of a better collaboration tool more > compelling -- enough so that I'm > willing to put some work behind it. What's come up recently? I don't remember seeing anything. Still, perhaps it would be worth asking the project owners what they would like to do? As admin for a few myself I would vote against a move. At least one of them would require significant work on my part to migrate. Regards, Dave.
Dave, > What's come up recently? I don't remember seeing anything. It wasn't on public lists, mostly. Let's just say that a few people are *very* dissatisfied with GBorg and might like to try something else. Also, we've been discussing having a bug tracking utility for the main project, particularly for the 7.5 release. > Still, perhaps it would be worth asking the project owners what they > would like to do? As admin for a few myself I would vote against a move. > At least one of them would require significant work on my part to > migrate. Yeah, that's why I said "gradually". What we do first is ask for volunteers, and put *new* projects on GForge. HOWEVER, this is all hypothetical. I need to poll this list and Hackers first and get a vote from people, as well as having an organized proposal -- which is going to wait until we have a blank GForge up and running on Hub.org first. So let's postpone the rest of the discussion until that happens, hey? -- -Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco
Chris, can you please put up a beta/alpha for the main news feeds and events? all you need to change is the db query and the name of the php objects used in the loop. For my news alpha I am using a regex on the postgresql homepage and is not really a good idea© Cheers David On Feb 20, 2004, at 4:48 PM, Chris Ryan wrote: > > --- David Costa <geeks@dotgeek.org> wrote: >> Hello! > -- snip -- >> Then just run the file and if it works let me know. > -- snip -- > > > It worked great.

David,
It's been a long day and I'm somewhat confused with what you want
me to do. Could you clarify? Thanks.

Dave P., Marc,
I took what David gave me for the rss feed on gborg and made some
quick changes in the sql to fit with the events and news tables from
the main sites database. I gleaned the information from the pgweb cvs
so it should be good to go but may need some tweaking since I didn't
test the sql against the db.
Find attached a file that has the two seperate scripts I modified
and a third script that needs to be placed appropriately. David had
sent me the instructions the first time but I seem to have deleted them
so he should be able to provide the needed instructions on setup. In
short it was placing the 3rd file in <PEAR>/XML/. and making sure
certain pear packages were installed XML_RPC and XML_Util.
