📡 Rss Scraper Specs
-------------------

[](#satellite-rss-scraper-specs)

This documentation decribe the rss scraper structure,usage and how the individual components work in the libary.

🔮 General Explanation
---------------------

[](#crystal_ball-general-explanation)

The rss scraper get the rss feed of the news from the configuration and get the rss feed items and return the data as a json response or an array.

- ### 🔨 Config loader

    [](#hammer-config-loader)

Rss scraper configurations are stored in the configs directory as `config.json` file. The config file has the information about the rss feeds that the rss scraper calls to scrap the rss feed.

Example config:

```
{
    "mihaaru":"https://mihaaru.com/rss",
    "vaguthu" "https://vaguthu.mv/feed"
}
```

This configuration file is loading the rss feed of [mihaaru](mihaaru.com) and [vaguthu](vaguthu.mv).

Thats pretty much it for the configuration file. Rss scraper has a util `ConfigLoader` class to load configuration data from the configs directory and return the rss feed url as an array.

The ConfigLoader class has one static load method which takes a `filename` as an argument to the method as a string. filename will be the name of the json file inside the configs directory. In this case the file name will be config. If a given file is not found load method throws an execption saying "Error reading the config file or it is empty."

Config loader class is shown below:
