I have use XML::RSSLite with some success. The following is a simple CGI that displays an RSS feed as a web page.
#! /usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use warnings; use CGI; use LWP; use XML::RSSLite; use Data::Dumper; my $cgi = new CGI; print $cgi->header; print $cgi->start_html('RSS Feed'); my $rssUrl = 'http://news.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_uk_edition/business +/rss091.xml'; my $rssContent; my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new; $ua->timeout(10); my $response = $ua->get($rssUrl); if ($response->is_success) { $rssContent = $response->content; # or whatever } print "Getting $rssUrl\n"; # print $response->code, "Content ->", $rssContent; if ($rssContent) { my %rssHash; parseRSS(\%rssHash, \$rssContent); print $cgi->h1($rssHash{'title'}); print $cgi->a({href=>$rssHash{'image'}->{'link'}}, $cgi->img({src=>$rssHash{'image'}->{'url'}}) ); foreach my $item (@{$rssHash{'item'}}) { print "<p>\n", "Title: $item->{'title'}<br>\n", "Desc: $item->{'description'}<br>\n", "Link: <a href=\"$item->{'link'}\">$item->{'link'}</a>\n"; } # print "<pre>", Dumper(\%rssHash), "</pre>"; } else { print $cgi->h1("Error ",$response->message); } print $cgi->end_html();
