Version notice -------------- [](#version-notice) This branch is for use with **CakePHP 5.1+**. See [version map](https://github.com/dereuromark/cakephp-feed/wiki#cakephp-version-map) for details. What is this plugin for? ------------------------ [](#what-is-this-plugin-for) There used to be a core helper for RSS generation, but it had several deficiencies. It also was removed in 4.0. So this plugin aims to provide a better support for feed generation — both RSS 2.0 (the de-facto standard, still required for podcasting) and Atom 1.0 (the cleaner, stricter successor preferred for most modern feeds). ### Goals of these view classes [](#goals-of-these-view-classes) - Support view-less actions via serialize. - Get rid of the ridiculously verbose "inline" namespace declarations. - Simplify the use of namespaces and their prefixes (auto-add only those that are actually used). - Support CDATA (unescaped content). - Allow mini-templating where necessary. - Accept friendly shorthands for the common case (bare strings for `link`, `author`, `category`) while leaving the full attribute shape available for power use. ### RSS vs Atom: which one? [](#rss-vs-atom-which-one) - **RSS 2.0** if you publish a podcast. Apple Podcasts and the rest of that ecosystem require RSS plus the `itunes:` namespace. Also pick RSS if you have a specific reason to target the long tail of RSS-only readers. - **Atom 1.0** for almost anything else. Unambiguous date semantics (separate `` and ``), typed content (`text`/`html`/`xhtml`), structured `` with `//`, multiple `` per entry, mandatory `` for proper deduplication. Most modern feed readers parse both equally well, and Atom is strictly less ambiguous. - **Both, if you're not sure.** Each view class is small; emitting `/feed.rss` and `/feed.atom` from the same controller action is a few extra lines. ### Additional features [](#additional-features) - Automatic View class mapping via `rss` and `atom` extensions. See [my article](https://www.dereuromark.de/2013/10/03/rss-feeds-in-cakephp/) for details on the history of this view class. ### Demo [](#demo) Installation & Docs ----------------------- [](#installation--docs) - [Documentation](docs/README.md) ### Possible TODOs [](#possible-todos) - Maybe add Feed readers instead of just writers. ### Health Score 62 — FairBetter than 99% of packages Maintenance91 Actively maintained with recent releases Popularity38 Limited adoption so far Community17 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity85 Battle-tested with a long release history Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 96.4% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
