hack scripts
|
|
|
|
They accomplish going from ChangeLog.txt -> RSS feeds that folks can subscribed to.
|
|
Ultimately ending up at http://www.slackware.com/~vbatts/feeds/
|
|
|
|
These are a mess, but still work.
|
|
|
|
I wrote a utility called slack-utils (https://github.com/vbatts/slack-utils/)
|
|
with a ruby gem (https://rubygems.org/gems/slack-utils). The python script
|
|
(`./bin/changelog_http_poll.py`) is called by a crontab. Python walks the
|
|
changelog.txt, then fetches from the http mirror the modified time. If it http
|
|
has the new version, then run the ruby script (`./bin/gen_changlog_rss.rb`).
|
|
This is what parses the changelog and returns RSS. Which is then written to the
|
|
corresponding file for public consumption.
