atom_filter

em_filter agent for Atom feeds.

Reads a list of Atom feed URLs from atom_config.json, fetches each feed, and returns entries whose title, link or summary matches the search query.

Handles Atom-specific structure: <entry> elements, <link href="..."/> attributes, and <summary> / <content> bodies — distinct from RSS <item> / <link> / <description>.

Setup

Rename atom_config.json.sample to atom_config.json and fill in your feed URLs:

{
    "atom_feeds": [
        "https://example.com/feed.atom",
        "https://another.com/feed.xml"
    ]
}

Usage

Add atom_filter to your dependencies, then start it as an OTP application. It registers itself with em_disco automatically on startup.

For a site-specific filter, create a wrapper application that copies its own priv/atom_config.json to the working directory before starting atom_filter. See linuxfr_atom_filter for a concrete example.
