Customizing RSS Output

2006-08-04T15:48:01Z

Pigpen:

How to customize RSS output to show an institution's or person's last n publications:

1. Edit <tt>/opt/eprints2/archives/<archive_id>/cfg/<b>ArchiveConfig.pm</b></tt>'s "Latest_tool Configuration" section to read:

$c->{latest_tool_modes} = {
default => { citation => "neat" },
person => {
citation => "neat",
filters => [
{ meta_fields => [ "creators.id", "editors.id" ], value => "" }
],
allow_user_value => 1,
max => 10
},
institution => {
citation => "neat",
filters => [
{ meta_fields => [ "institutions" ], value => "" }
],
allow_user_value => 1,
max => 20
}
};

2. Alter <tt>/opt/eprints2/cgi/<b>latest_tool</b></tt> (starting from line 45) to read:

if( defined $conf )
{
my $allow_user_value = 0;
foreach my $key (keys %{$conf} )
{
$citation = $conf->{"citation"} if( $key eq "citation" );
$filters = $conf->{"filters"} if( $key eq "filters" );
$allow_user_value = $conf->{"allow_user_value"} if( $key eq "allow_user_value" );
$max = $conf->{"max"} if( $key eq "max" );
}
if ( $allow_user_value ) {
my $value = $session->param( "value" );
if ( defined $value ) {
@$filters[0]->{"value"} = $value;
}
}
$class.= "_".$mode;
}
...

3. Restart Apache.

Your customized RSS feeds will be located at

*<nowiki>http://<base_url>/perl/latest_tool?mode=person&value=<person_id>&output=rss</nowiki>
*<nowiki>http://<base_url>/perl/latest_tool?mode=institution&value=<institution_id>&output=rss</nowiki>
