We've been working on the new
Vice syndication project, integrating it into our new Viral Content Manager system. Although the system is still pre-alpha it is
very impressive! The basic structure of our content types is:
ContentItems are contained in a folderish portal tool, and contain a reference to
0..* ContentChannels which can be anywhere.
We now have working RSS and ATOM feeds for the
ContentItems associated with a given
ContentChannel, looking like this:
from zope.interface import implements
from zope.component import adapts, queryMultiAdapter, getMultiAdapter
from zope.interface import Interface
from Products.VCNArchetypes.interfaces import IChannel, IViral
from plone.syndication.outbound.interfaces import IFeed, IFeedItem
import logging
from plone.app.syndication.outbound.adapters.atct import ATFeedBase, ATFeedItemBase
class ContentFeed(ATFeedBase):
"""Adapter from IChannel to IFeed.
>>> from zope.interface.verify import verifyClass
>>> verifyClass(IFeed, ContentFeed)
True
"""
implements(IFeed)
adapts(IChannel, str)
def __iter__(self):
items = self.context.getContentItems()
while 1:
yield queryMultiAdapter((items.next(), self), IFeedItem)
class ViralFeedItem(ATFeedItemBase):
"""Adapter from IViral to IFeedItem.
Make sure that ViralFeedItem implements the IFeedItem
interface
>>> from zope.interface.verify import verifyClass
>>> verifyClass(IFeedItem, ViralFeedItem)
True
"""
implements(IFeedItem)
adapts(IViral, IFeed)
@property
def url(self):
return self.context.getViral_url()
@property
def body(self):
return self.context.getViral_description()
and called in with:

One of the
sprint tasks is creating an easy to follow, doctested, readme. Until that comes out hopefully this will help people use this brilliant addition to Plone!
Thanks derek_richardson, pbugni and everyone else who's contributed!
