SingleSub v0.1 Released
Posted October 17, 2005 – 12:00 am by Yakov Shafranovich in Programming, ProjectsFollowing on my previous post on the single subscribe solutions for RSS, I put together a small project called ‘SingleSub’ to solve it. The main thing that it revolves around is an XML list of aggregator subscription information available in OPML, RSS 2.0 and RDF formats. The OPML file (which is the main one I use) is used with XSLT templates to create other XML formats as well as three publishing utilities:
1. An auto-generated version of Jason Brome’s QuickSub utility.
2. A chicklet generator like the one provided by KB Cafe. Mine is based on the data stored in the XML file.
3. An HTML subscription service like the ones provided by the Syndication Subscription Service,
SoloSub and MultiRss. However, mine doesn’t require changes everytime a new aggregator is added - everything is based on the original OPML file.
Here are some samples.
1. The OPML file (also available in RSS 2.0 and RDF flavors).
2. Auto-generated QuickSub utility for my blog (see this page).
3. The chicklet generator for my blog:
4. A single subscribe button for my blog which redirects to an HTML service:
.Documentation and more information can be found on the separate SingleSub page, code can be download here (keep in mind that it might end up being GPLed).
