RSS & Atom Feeds for PHP

, _(*1)

RSS & Atom Feeds for PHP is a very small and easy-to-use library for consuming an RSS and Atom feeds. This project is a forked of David Grudl's rs-php https://github.com/dg/rss-php, _(*2)

It requires PHP 5.5 and Guzzle 6.1 and is licensed under the New BSD License. You can obtain the latest version from our GitHub repository or install it via Composer:, _(*3)

php composer.phar require dansup/rss-php

Usage

Download RSS feed from URL:, _(*4)

$rss = Feed::loadRss($url);

The returned properties are SimpleXMLElement objects. Extracting the information from the channel is easy:, _(*5)

echo 'Title: ', $rss->title;
echo 'Description: ', $rss->description;
echo 'Link: ', $rss->link;

foreach ($rss->item as $item) {
    echo 'Title: ', $item->title;
    echo 'Link: ', $item->link;
    echo 'Timestamp: ', $item->timestamp;
    echo 'Description ', $item->description;
    echo 'HTML encoded content: ', $item->{'content:encoded'};
}

Download Atom feed from URL:, _(*6)

$atom = Feed::loadAtom($url);

You can set your own Guzzle instance to the static client property, _(*7)

Feed::$client = new GuzzleHttp\Client(['headers' => ['User-Agent' => 'FeedPHP/1.0']]);

and it will be reused., _(*8)

You can pass Guzzle request options (including auth user/password) on each call, _(*9)

$atom = Feed::loadAtom($url, ['auth' => ['peter', 'secret']);

You can also enable caching using https://github.com/Kevinrob/guzzle-cache-middleware, _(*10)

//  Simple volatile memory cache example check docs for more options 
use GuzzleHttp\Client;
use GuzzleHttp\HandlerStack;
use Kevinrob\GuzzleCache\CacheMiddleware;

// Create default HandlerStack
$stack = HandlerStack::create();

// Add this middleware to the top with `push`
$stack->push(new CacheMiddleware(), 'cache');

// Initialize the client with the handler option
Feed::$client = new Client(['handler' => $stack]);
