# Steam RSS to Discord Webhook
This script fetches a Steam RSS feed and automatically sends new updates to a Discord webhook in an embedded message. It supports extracting and formatting descriptions as well as retrieving images from the feed.
## ⚙️ Features
- ✅ Periodically checks an RSS feed for new entries
- ✅ Automatically sends new entries to a Discord webhook
- ✅ Cleans and formats descriptions for better readability
- ✅ Extracts images from the feed and includes them in the embed
## 📅 Installation
### **1. Install dependencies:**
Ensure you have Python installed and install the required packages:
```bash
pip install feedparser requests
```
### **2. Configure the script:**
- Set your RSS feed URL in `FEED_URL`
- Add your Discord webhook URL in `WEBHOOK_URL`
- Adjust the check interval if needed (`CHECK_INTERVAL` in seconds)
### **3. Run the script:**
```bash
python script.py
```
## ⚙️ Configuration
Customizable variables in the script:
```python
FEED_URL = "https://example.com/rss"
WEBHOOK_URL = "https://discord.com/api/webhooks/..."
CHECK_INTERVAL = 5 # Interval in seconds
```
## 📝 How It Works
1. The script reads the RSS feed and stores the last processed entry.
2. Every few seconds, it checks for new entries.
3. If a new entry is found:
- It extracts the title, link, and description.
- The description is cleaned and formatted.
- Any images from the entry are retrieved and added to the embed.
- The message is sent to Discord via the webhook.
