RSS feed against each query string

Dear all

Is it possible to generate RSS feed (say ATM 2.0 based) against each query in VuFind (I'm using ver 3.1)? In our system such facility may help users to subscribe that feed in a feed reader (exclusive or browser based) so that next time when there is new document/resource added on that subject (represented by the query term), the VuFind may send alerting to the feed reader of the user.

Regards

Re: RSS feed against each query string

You can add &view=rss to the end of any search URL to represent those results as an RSS feed (there is also a link to this mode in the bottom of each search results page). If you turn on VuFind’s change tracking feature, these feeds will be automatically ordered based on the date records were added to VuFind, allowing them to function as true feeds.

Please let me know if you have any questions or problems!

Dear Demian

Yes its is working now.

The URL http://localhost/vufind/Search/Results?lookfor=library&type=AllFields&hiddenFilters%5B%5D=collection%3A%22LfL-ILS%22&view=rss

produces results like this:

Library automation and OPAC 2.0 : information access and services in the 2.0 landscape /
01/01/2011 05:30 AM
How to build a digital library /
01/01/2010 05:30 AM
Prolegomena to library classification,
01/01/1967 05:30 AM
The Evolution of library automation : management issues and future perspectives /
01/01/1991 05:30 AM
Library automation through Koha /
01/01/2008 05:30 AM
Elements of library classification /
Bibliometric to webometrics /
01/01/2009 05:30 AM

It seems it is arranging resources by their year of publications.

Is it the normal behaviour?

Re: RSS feed against each query string

If data is indexed without change tracking enabled, the RSS feed will sort by year of publication. See this wiki page for details on change tracking:

https://vufind.org/wiki/indexing:tracking_record_changes

Note that change tracking is fairly straightforward for MARC records, but it can be challenging to implement for some OAI-PMH content since the necessary creation/modification information is not always readily available in that context.

Please let me know if you have further questions.
