Using Really Simple Syndication (RSS) support

Use the zero.rss package to publish and consume RSS feeds with IBM® WebSphere® sMash.

Prerequisites

The zero.rss package is required for publishing and consuming RSS feeds with WebSphere sMash. This package can be added to your Java™ WebSphere sMash application through the standard dependency-resolution mechanism.

Add the following element to the dependencies element in your config/ivy.xml file:

    <dependency org="zero" name="zero.rss" rev="1.0+"/>

Rome

RSS support in WebSphere sMash is provided by the Rome libraries, which support parsing, generating and converting all of the popular RSS formats including the following formats:

  • RSS 0.90
  • RSS 0.91 Netscape
  • RSS 0.91 Userland
  • RSS 0.92
  • RSS 0.93
  • RSS 0.94
  • RSS 1.0
  • RSS 2.0

Though Rome supports Atom 1.0, Abdera is recommended for working with Atom 1.0 feeds.

For more information on how to use Rome, see the Rome Website, especially the documentation wiki.
