RSS API в PHP

Ara is a PHP class for generating an RSS feed in RSS 2.0 format.

Its use is very simple: several method calls to generate an RSS feed, add a channel, add articles, etc.

Use

Create an instance of the class:

$myfeed = new ara();

and associate properties and methods with this instance.

They allow you to control the parameters of the RSS feed. The property is accessed by instance name.
Exempli gratia

$myfeed->DESC_SIZE = 500;

DESC_SIZE: Description size. This may be different because the class tries to break the description after the period .
FEED_MAX: Maximum number of items in the ribbon.
DESCENT: Add recent articles to the top of the list to see the latest articles first.

They allow you to create an RSS file from raw data. The ribbon can be displayed using scripts such as RSS Reader or Common Reader.
