Re: smd_xml : extract data from XML feeds
The comma behind LastMod=NOW()?
In bad weather I never leave home without wet_plugout, smd_where_used and adi_form_links

no that did not fix it, neither did LastMod='NOW()',
also i’m running this test site on xampp, not sure if it would affect anything.

It works for me with the latest beta (though I’m running a development copy of smd_query too, that shouldn’t affect it).
Can you output stuff from your feed to the screen inside the smd_xml container ok?

yes it’s outputting without the query section. so i’m going to now assume it’s something to do with running a local server. the problem is i dont want to test on a live one, and then spit articles into the rss feed.

Or maybe it’s a problem with smd_query. Wanna try my version?

Re: smd_xml : extract data from XML feeds
Hi Stef, I’m trying to parse a youtube feed. The link field appears many times, but I would like to use only the first occurrence. Is it possible? The concat parameter let me use the last, and that’s not useful for me. A related question: the link fields appear with different attributes. Is it possible to target only the fields that has some attribute and not the others? E.g.
<entry>
<id>http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos/XXXXX</id>
...
<link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXXXX&feature=youtube_gdata"/>
<link rel="http://gdata.youtube.com/schemas/2007#video.responses" type="application/atom+xml" href="https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos/XXXXX/responses"/>
<link rel="http://gdata.youtube.com/schemas/2007#video.related" type="application/atom+xml" href="https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos/XXXXX/related"/>
<link rel="http://gdata.youtube.com/schemas/2007#mobile" type="text/html" href="https://m.youtube.com/details?v=XXXXX"/>
<link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/p40it/uploads/XXXXX"/>
</entry>
I’d like to use the href content of the first link. There is a way I could try to use type or rel=“alternate” to target it?

Stef, may I..?
Be my guest. This plugin has rotted to the point I was considering overhauling it, then yours came along so I didn’t need to bother!
Although istr the latest smd_xml beta will do what Zanza wants, I’d have to refresh my memory on what options to use to do it, and it may well involve smd_if. Yours will be faster, I’m sure.

Thanks for the welcome, sir!

Not at all, the network connection to youtube will take 99.99% of time with both anyway. I simply think xpath is a right thing to use here. Importing the first link’s href takes no more than
<txp:etc_query url="...youtube..." markup="xml" query="string(//entry/link[1]/@href)" />
provided there is only one entry in the feed.
