# history4feed
## Overview
It is common for feeds (RSS or XML) to only include a limited number of posts. I generally see the latest 3 - 5 posts of a blog in a feed. For blogs that have been operating for years, this means potentially thousands of posts are missed.
There is no way to page through historic articles using an RSS or ATOM feed (they were not designed for this), which means the first poll of the feed will only contain the limited number of articles in the feed. This limit is defined by the blog owner.
history4feed can be used to create a complete history for a blog and output it as an RSS feed.
history4feed offers an API interface that;
1. takes an RSS / ATOM feed URL
2. downloads a Wayback Machine archive for the feed
3. identified all unique blog posts in the historic feeds downloaded
4. downloads a HTML version of the article content on each page
5. stores the post record in the databases
6. exposes the posts as JSON or XML RSS
