Re: [Tutor] Building RSS reader with Python

Might look at rss2email, it works very well for those of us that like
to read email instead of yet another website to read rss feeds.

It won't solve your search for the address of rss feeds on the site
but it will give you an idea about rss parsing.

 Hi everyone,
 
 I'm new to programming and am building a very basic rss reader for my 
 first major project with python and GUI. As it is, I have it set up so 
 that if I input an exact rss feed address (ex 
 http://news.google.com/?output=rss) I can retrieve stories. Id like to 
 make it so that I can enter a site (like http://news.google.com) and 
 have it search for the address of rss feeds on the site, so that I 
 don't have to know exact page addresses for the rss, since most sites 
 don't have such a straightforward location for the RSS page. Is there a 
 way to do this?
 
 Thanks,
 Luke

[Tutor] python based blogging software/cms?

2008-11-03 Thread lister
Not sure if this is appropriate for the tutor mailing list, but it
is a beginner question for python.

It seems most of the popular cms/blogging software is php/mysql based

Anything of substancial popularity/support based on python?

I was looking for something along the lines of wordpress popular, but not
sure if there exists something for python.

I'm aware of Zine (http://dev.pocoo.org/projects/zine/ ) that is trying to
become wordpress like, any others?
