gns3feed - generate ATOM/RSS feed from GNS3 community website

gns3feed connects to the GNS3 community website and creates an ATOM/RSS feed from it.

It requires Python 3 and the feedgen and requests modules. These can be installed with pip3 install feedgen and pip3 install requests.

Usage

gns3feed [-h] [-v] [-a] [-r] [-c CACHE] [feed_file]

positional arguments:
  feed_file                feed file, default = ~/GNS3/feed/gns3.xml

optional arguments:
  -h, --help, -?           prints this screen
  -v, --version            prints version
  -a, --atom               generate ATOM feed (default)
  -r, --rss                generate RSS feed
  -c CACHE, --cache CACHE  cache file, default = ~/GNS3/feed/cache.json

Run this program regulary, for example by cron, and add the generated feed file to your newsfeed reader.

Currently this program is highly experimental. It will break anytime the GNS3 website changes it's structure. Furthermore it got very limited testing, mainly with Vienna, a RSS/Atom reader for macOS.
