FkrSimplePieBundle
==================

[](#fkrsimplepiebundle)

Integrates [SimplePie](https://github.com/simplepie/simplepie) RSS Parser into Symfony and setting up caching to the symfony cache folder.

Installation
============

[](#installation)

Bring in the vendor libraries
-----------------------------

[](#bring-in-the-vendor-libraries)

This can be done in two different ways:

**Method #1**) Use composer

```
"require": {
    "fkr/simplepie-bundle": "1.0.*@dev"
}

```

**Method #2**) Use deps file

```
[SimplePie]
    git=git://github.com/simplepie/simplepie.git
	target=simplepie

[FkrSimplePieBundle]
    git=git://github.com/fkrauthan/FkrSimplePieBundle.git
	target=bundles/Fkr/SimplePieBundle

```

**Method #3**) Use git submodules

```
git submodule add git://github.com/simplepie/simplepie.git vendor/simplepie
git submodule add git://github.com/fkrauthan/FkrSimplePieBundle.git vendor/bundles/Fkr/SimplePieBundle

```

Register the SimplePie and Fkr namespaces
-----------------------------------------

[](#register-the-simplepie-and-fkr-namespaces)

This is *not* required if you installed using composer.

```
// app/autoload.php
$loader->registerNamespaces(array(
    'Fkr'  => __DIR__.'/../vendor/bundles',
    // your other namespaces
));
$loader->registerPrefixes(array(
    'SimplePie'	   => __DIR__.'/../vendor/simplepie/library',
    // your other namespaces
));

```

Add SimplePieBundle to your application kernel
----------------------------------------------

[](#add-simplepiebundle-to-your-application-kernel)

```
// app/AppKernel.php
public function registerBundles()
{
    return array(
        // ...
        new Fkr\SimplePieBundle\FkrSimplePieBundle(),
        // ...
    );
}

```

Configuration
=============

[](#configuration)

```
# app/config.yml
fkr_simple_pie:
    cache_enabled: false
    cache_dir: %kernel.cache_dir%/rss
    cache_duration: 3600
    idna_converter: ~ #default is false

```

- cache\_enabled: \[true or false\] enables caching for the SimplePie class
- cache\_dir: \[any dir\] setup the caching dir which SimplePie should use
- cache\_duration: \[secs\] setting up caching for number of seconds.
- idna\_converter: \[true or false\] enable the idna converter a [Encoder/Decoder for Internationalized Domain Names](http://dev.simplepie.org/api/class-idna_convert.html)

For more information about SimplePie's caching please visit the [SimplePie wiki](http://simplepie.org/wiki/faq/how_does_simplepie_s_caching_http_conditional_get_system_work).

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

To get a configured SimplePie class instance just use the following code

```
$this->get('fkr_simple_pie.rss');

```

The service keeps only one instance of SimplePie. If you want to use multiple feeds over your application you have to `clone` the instance to stop them interfering

```
$one = clone $this->get('fkr_simple_pie.rss');
$two = clone $this->get('fkr_simple_pie.rss');

```

Thats all. For the complete api visit the [SimplePie api doc](http://simplepie.org/wiki/reference/start).
