what?

dir2rss does a simple thing - converts directory listings to RSS feeds. You may imagine that you have a public or private (S)FTP server where people up- and download files, and you want to easily keep track of what's changed there. Dir2rss lets you do exactly that - it traverses a directory in filesystem, gathers file info and outputs the listing of most recently changed/added files as RSS.

dir2rss requires Python and should work on any system that can run Python.

how to get/install

  1. download dir2rss.py and settings example.

  2. rename dir2feedSettings_example.py to dir2feedSettings.py and edit it
  3. download this Python module and unpack. Either install as it tells you, or just place PyRSS2Gen.py in the same directory as dir2rss.py.

  4. run and enjoy.

There isn't any. Use as you wish for whatever purpose, but I'm not accountable if you mess up.
