See the +plugin's documentation for details. + +This directive allows content from other feeds to be aggregated into the wiki. +Aggregate a feed as follows: + + \[[!aggregate name="example blog" dir="example" + feedurl="http://example.com/index.rss" + url="http://example.com/" updateinterval="15"]] + +That example aggregates posts from the specified RSS feed, updating no +more frequently than once every 15 minutes (though possibly less +frequently, if the cron job runs less frequently than that), and puts a +page per post under the example/ directory in the wiki. + +You can then use ikiwiki's [[inline]] directive to create a blog of one or +more aggregated feeds. For example: + + \[[!inline pages="internal(example/*)"]] + +Note the use of `internal()` in the [[ikiwiki/PageSpec]] to match +aggregated pages. By default, aggregated pages are internal pages, +which prevents them from showing up directly in the wiki, and so this +special [[PageSpec]] is needed to match them. + +## usage + +Here are descriptions of all the supported parameters to the `aggregate` +directive: + +* `name` - A name for the feed. Each feed must have a unique name. + Required. +* `url` - The url to the web page for the feed that's being aggregated. + Required. +* `dir` - The directory in the wiki where pages should be saved. Optional, + if not specified, the directory is based on the name of the feed. +* `feedurl` - The url to the feed. Optional, if it's not specified ikiwiki + will look for feeds on the `url`. RSS and atom feeds are supported. +* `updateinterval` - How often to check for new posts, in minutes. Default + is 15 minutes. +* `expireage` - Expire old items from this feed if they are older than + a specified number of days. Default is to never expire on age. +* `expirecount` - Expire old items from this feed if there are more than + the specified number total. Oldest items will be expired first. Default + is to never expire on count. +* `tag` - A tag to tag each post from the feed with. A good tag to use is + the name of the feed. Can be repeated multiple times. The [[tag]] plugin + must be enabled for this to work. +* `template` - Template to use for creating the aggregated pages. Defaults to + aggregatepost. + +Note that even if you are using subversion or another revision control +system, pages created by aggregation will *not* be checked into revision +control. + +[[!meta robots="noindex, follow"]] -- cgit v1.2.3
