Usage

Feed Parsing

RSS

import FeedParser

let URL = NSURL(string: "http://images.apple.com/main/rss/hotnews/hotnews.rss")!

FeedParser(URL: URL)?.parse({ (result) in
    result.rssFeed // An `RSSFeed` model
})

Atom

FeedParser(URL: URL)?.parse({ (result) in
    result.atomFeed // An `AtomFeed` model
})

Aditional initializers can also be found for NSData and NSInputStream objects.

Parse Result

Multiple FeedType's and, or Error handling can be acomplished using the Result enum

FeedParser(URL: URL)?.parse({ (result) in
    
    switch result {
    case .RSS(let rssFeed):
        print(rssFeed) // An `RSSFeed` model
    case .Atom(let atomFeed):
        print(atomFeed) // An `AtomFeed` model
    case .Failure(let error):
        print(error) // An `NSError` object
    }
    
})

Model Preview

RSSFeed

FeedParser(URL: URL)?.parse({ (result) in
    
    guard let feed = result.rssFeed where result.isSuccess else {
        print(result.error)
        return
    }
    
    print(feed.title)                      // The feed's `Title`
    print(feed.items?.count)               // The number of articles
    print(feed.items?.first?.title)        // The feed's first article `Title`
    print(feed.items?.first?.description)  // The feed's first article `Description`
