⚠️ Unmaintained ⚠️
------------------

[](#️-unmaintained-️)

I originally wrote this up for a client on Upwork, who disappeared and never paid. So I published it at some point, but it's really not something I have bandwidth for maintaining.

I do not use it, and no future changes or updates are planned. I'm archiving it, but leaving it up in case it saves someone else a couple hours of work. Read the source and don't expect the most robust code in the world :)

merge-rss-php
=============

[](#merge-rss-php)

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- php with SimpleXML enabled

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
$ composer require uniphil/merge-rss
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
$feed1 = simplexml_load_string(
    '

          An older post from one feed
          2016-01-01

    ');

$feed2 = simplexml_load_string(
    '

          A recent post from another
          2016-11-12

    ');

$merged = MergeRSS\merge_rss(array($feed1, $feed2));
echo $merged->asXML();
```

should output an xml document that looks like this:

```

      A recent post from another
      2016-11-12

      An older post from one feed
      2016-01-01

```
