Feedfinder2
===========

This is a Python library for finding links feeds on a website. It is based on
`feedfinder `_ - originally
written by `Mark
Pilgrim `_ and
subsequently maintained by `Aaron
Swartz `_ until his untimely death.

Usage
-----

Feedfinder2 offers a single public function: ``find_feeds``. You would use it
as follows:

::

from feedfinder2 import find_feeds
feeds = find_feeds("xkcd.com")

Now, ``feeds`` is the list: ``['http://xkcd.com/atom.xml',
'http://xkcd.com/rss.xml']``. There is some attempt made to rank feeds from
best candidate to worst but... well... you never know.
