• DominoRSS as a Servlet

    By Peter Narlund 2 decades ago

    In some cases scheduled updates are not sufficient.

    In other cases maybe the rss feed needs to be specified by the user.



    E.g I want to track requests to my post in a domino discussion forum via a rss feed.



    In this case there should be a url pointing to the rss feed definition and if i i add the document unique id as a parameter to the url I should get a rss feed for only my post and its responses.



    Because I can not know beforehand how this rss feed will look there must be a way in DominoRSS to define a "dynamic" feed that takes parameters.



    Besides the document unique id, a time expired parameter could be useful. When the rss reader asks for the rss document the server check to see if the document is older than the time expired parameter and in that case produces a new rss document.



    For this functionality to perform efficently it should be implemented as a servlet.



    Does any one want me to make such an implementation?

    • Servlet implementation solved many problems

      By Peter Narlund 2 decades ago

      I made a servlet implementation - this means i don't need to implement a server addin task or stand alone application to handle my own scheduling.



      As soon as I have added the client side cash pattern to the servlet implementation all use cases for my project are implemented.



      The generator for responsedocuments will be made during the week.
