# Very Simple Planet Aggregator

As Venus was Python 2 only I decided that I need something else to run my

[Developer's Planet](https://devplanet.one.pl/) aggregator.

This is the result of few hours of playing with FeedParser and Jinja2.

# Usage

1. Run `init.py planet.ini` to create database and import feeds from Venus

   config file.

2. `fetch.py` script will connect to each feed and fetch it's posts.

3. `generate.py` loads template files and outputs result (HTML page and RSS 2.0

   feed XML).

# Features

- first eight posts are then added to database. Amount is hard coded.

- if server responds with HTTP 301 then feed address will be updated.

- content of ETag and last modified date headers are stored in database and used

  if present

  - use '--force' option with 'fetch.py' script to force refresh
