Recent Review RSS

We've got a feed for recent posts, but not one for recent reviews.

Any chance of adding it?

Edit: Also, would it be possible to get the full blog post on that rss feed? or even a longer extract?
I was shamed into writing a new feature today. Someone as... isn't the most useful feed content in the world. :/

ping? should I send a link to this thread via the suggest a feature button?

Hi Daniel,

Let me take a look and see what I can get done about this today.

Thankie ... sorry if I seem to be nagging ... I'm not, honest

I just like having lots of nice ohloh stuffs on akregator so I get a popup whenever there is something new to read

Incidentally, is that filter bit on recent reviews new, or am I just blind as a bat?

Don't worry about whether you're nagging - it's just tough sometimes to juggle the requests - and know that sometimes you just can't accommodate everyone.

As for the recent reviews filter - I'm not aware of it being new - but maybe Robin checked that in recently (he's away today).

Daniel,

Blog RSS: I lengthened the articles, cleaned up the xml, added markup, etc...

Reviews RSS: I got very close to enabling this but there was a web server configuration problem - and I've run out of time. I might get to it this weekend but otherwise I'm on vacation next week. Sorry for the delay...

Had a some time free tonight - added the feed. Look in the address bar of your browser when looking at reviews, or instead:

Have a great weekend!

What a star! Now I can pounce on reviews as well as posts :) Thanks

Have a nice vacation :)

Right ... two minor details that would be nice to have fixed...

Firstly, the feed (I'm pulling the rss one) doesn't appear to have the actual project stated, or if it does, my akregator doesn't seem to show it. Could it be prepended to the subject maybe?

Secondly, said feed also doesn't seem to show the number of stars the review has. Perhaps throw that at the begining of the review body? Or at the end?

As I say, it's quite possible the feed, or the atom one I don't pull, do contain the info and my client doesn't show it ....?

Bump?

Daniel / Nazca ... over 18 years ago
 

Thankie ... I figured I'd bump it when I spotted a review that made absolutely no sense without the project name...

Excellent - One of the best open source games I have seen in my life!

heh

Edit: Um ... Did the servers clock just adjust backward? I'm sure I'm not precognitive ;)

hi Daniel,

Thanks for the bump - got lost in the shuffle. I will work on this right now.

Hi Daniel,

you might have to re-subscribe to get the new content - but I added the project name to the title and appended the description with the person's rating (if they rated it). Tell me what you think - feel free to provide prescriptive feedback ;-).

Jason Allen over 18 years ago
 

I like it ^_^

Does look a little odd on the reviews with no trailing whitespace though, since the rating text doesn't have any leading whitespace.

Perhaps tack a couple of newlines in before the reviewer's name? Alex's review of JML has ended up laid out like this, and it's not to bad on the eyes.

Daniel / Nazca ... over 18 years ago
 

hi Daniel,

I added a few line breaks just before the rating. Let me know if your feed reader is displaying that properly.

Jason Allen over 18 years ago
 

Yeah, looks good to me.

There area couple of reviews with trailing newlines, but I'm not really sure what to suggest with those

Daniel / Nazca ... over 18 years ago
 

ah - i think i can fix that. Once more unto the breach....

Jason Allen over 18 years ago
 

k - i stripped any trailing whitespace before appending the rating. And now, your highness, may we call this complete? ;-p

Jason Allen over 18 years ago
 

lol, yeah, looks good ... my perfectionism fails to see any real flaws with it. ;p

Now, off to see what else I can post to :D
