A metalsmith plugin to generate Atom feed for a collection.
If you're looking for RSS standard instead of Atom, take a look on metalsmith-feed plugin.

Requires metalsmith-collections plugin to work.

Usage

const metalsmith = require('metalsmith');
const collections = require('metalsmith-collections');
const atomfeed = require('metalsmith-feed-atom');
 
metalsmith('working/dir')
  .use(collections({articles: '*.html'}))
  .use(atomfeed({collection: 'articles'})) // make sure it comes after collections

Options

  • collection string required: Name of the configured metalsmith-collection to build the feed from.
  • limit number optional: Maximum number of files to show in the feed. Defaults to 10.
  • destination string optional: File path to write the rendered XML feed. Defaults to 'index.xml'.
  • metadata object optional: Metadata containing important information about your feed. Despite it isn't a required option, you must provide it in order to generate a valid Atom feed.
    • metadata.title string required: Title of your site/feed.
    • metadata.subtitle string optional: Subtitle of your site/feed.
    • metadata.url string required: Url of your site. This is also used as base url to produce files (feed entries) urls.
    • metadata.updated datetime optional: Last time your feed was updated. Defaults to the moment you generate it.

Files must have path metadata (perhaps from metalsmith-permalinks) in order to have its links outputted in the generated XML file.
