Examples

Parse a feed:

String url = "https://stackoverflow.com/feeds/tag?tagnames=rome";
SyndFeed feed = new SyndFeedInput().build(new XmlReader(new URL(url)));
System.out.println(feed.getTitle());

Beware! The URL class used in this example is rudimentary and works only for simplest cases. Please consider using a separate library for fetching the feed (see example in #276).

Generate a feed:

SyndFeed feed = new SyndFeedImpl();
feed.setFeedType("rss_2.0");
feed.setTitle("test-title");
feed.setDescription("test-description");
feed.setLink("https://example.org");
System.out.println(new SyndFeedOutput().outputString(feed));
