    my $rss = App::DocKnot::Spin::RSS->new({ base => 'path/to/tree' });
    $rss->generate('path/to/tree/.rss');

=head1 REQUIREMENTS

Perl 5.24 or later and the modules Date::Language, Date::Parse (both part of
the TimeDate distribution), List::SomeUtils, Path::Tiny, and Perl6::Slurp,
both of which are available from CPAN.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

App::DocKnot::Spin::RSS reads as input a feed description file consisting of
simple key/value pairs and writes out either thread (for input to
App::DocKnot::Spin::Thread) or RSS.  The feed description consists of a
leading block of metadata and then one block per entry in the feed.  Each
block can either include the content of the entry or can reference an external
thread file, in several formats, for the content.  The feed description file
defines one or more output files in the Output field of the metadata.

Output files are only regenerated if they are older than the input feed
description file.

App::DocKnot::Spin::RSS is designed for use with App::DocKnot::Spin.  It
relies on App::DocKnot::Spin::Thread to convert thread to HTML, both for
inclusion in RSS feeds and for post-processing of generated thread files.
App::DocKnot::Spin::RSS is invoked automatically by App::DocKnot::Spin when it
encounters an F<.rss> file in a directory it is processing.

See L<INPUT LANGUAGE> for the details of the language in which F<.rss> files
are written.

=head1 CLASS METHODS

=over 4

=item new(ARGS)

Create a new App::DocKnot::Spin::RSS object.  ARGS should be a hash reference
with one or more of the following keys, all of which are optional:

=over 4

=item base

By default, App::DocKnot::Spin::RSS output files are relative to the current
working directory.  If the C<base> argument is given, output files will be
relative to the value of C<base> instead.  Output files specified as absolute
paths will not be affected.  C<base> may be a string or a Path::Tiny object.

=back

=back

=head1 INSTANCE METHODS

=over 4

=item generate(FILE[, BASE])

Parse the input file FILE and generate the output files that it specifies.
BASE, if given, specifies the root directory for output files specified with
relative paths, and overrides any C<base> argument given to new().  Both FILE
and BASE may be strings or Path::Tiny objects.

=back

=head1 INPUT LANGUAGE

The input for App::DocKnot::Spin::RSS is normally a F<.rss> file in a tree
being processed by App::DocKnot::Spin.  The file consists of one or more
blocks of RFC-2822-style fields with values, each separated by a blank line.
Each field and value looks like an e-mail header field, including possible
continuation lines:

    Field: value
     continuation of value

Any line beginning with whitespace is considered a continuation of the
previous line.  If a value should contain a blank line, indicate that blank
line with a continuation line containing only a period.  For example:

    Field: first paragraph
     .
     second paragraph

=head2 Metadata

The first block of the file sets the metadata for this set of output.  The
following fields are supported:

=over 4

=item Base

The base URL for entries in this file.  All links in subsequent blocks of the
file, if not absolute URLs, are treated as relative to this URL and are made
absolute by prepending this URL.  Always specify this key unless all Link
fields in the remainder of the file use absolute URLs.

This field value is also used as the C<< <link> >> element in the RSS feed,
indicating the web site corresponding to this feed.

=item Description

The description of the feed, used only in the RSS output.  This should always
be set if there are any RSS output files.

=item Index-Base

The base URL for output files of type C<index>.  This is used to canonicalize
relative URLs and should be the URL to the directory containing the HTML file
that will result from processing the thread output.  This should be set if
there are any output files of type C<index>; if it isn't set, relative links
may be rewritten incorrectly.

=item Index-Prefix

When generating output files of type C<index>, use the value as the initial
content of the generated thread.  This field should almost always be set if
any output files of type C<index> are defined.  It will contain such things as
the C<\heading> command, any prologue material, initial headings, and so
forth.

=item Index-Suffix

When generating output files of type C<index>, append the value to the end of
the generated thread.  The C<\signature> command is always appended and should
not be included here.  Set this field only if there is other thread that needs
to be appended (such as closing brackets for C<\div> commands).

=item Language

The language of the feed, used only in the RSS output.  This should always be
set if there are any RSS output files.  Use C<en-us> for US English.

=item Output

Specifies the output files for this input file in the form of a
whitespace-separated list of output specifiers.  This field must always be
set.

An output specifier is of the form I<tags>:I<type>:I<file>, where I<file> is
the output file (always a relative path), I<type> is the type of output, and
I<tags> indicates which entries to include in this file.  I<tags> is a
comma-separated list of tags or the special value C<*>, indicating all tags.

There are three types of output:

=over 4

=item index

Output thread containing all recent entries.  This output file honors the
Recent field similar to RSS output and is used to generate something akin to a
journal or blog front page: an HTML version of all recent entries.  It only
supports external entries (entries with C<Journal> or C<Review> fields).  The
C<Index-Base> and C<Index-Prefix> (and possibly C<Index-Suffix>) fields should
be set.

For output for entries with simple descriptions included in the input file,
see the C<thread> output type.

=item rss

Output an RSS file.  App::DocKnot::Spin::RSS only understands the RSS 2.0
output format.  The C<Description>, C<Language>, C<RSS-Base>, and C<Title>
fields should be set to provide additional metadata for the output file.

=item thread

Output thread containing all entries in this input file.  This should only be
used for input files where all entries have their description text inline in
the input file.  Every entry will be included.  The output will be divided
into sections by month, and each entry will be in a description list, with the
title prefixed by the date.  The C<Thread-Prefix> field should be set.

For output that can handle entries from external files, see the C<index>
output type.

=back

=item Recent

Sets the number of recent entries to include in output files of type C<rss> or
C<index> (but not C<thread>, which will include the full contents of the
file).  If this field is not present, the default is 15.

=item RSS-Base

The base URL for RSS files generated by this file.  Each generated RSS file
should have a link back to itself, and that link will be formed by taking the
output name and prepending this field.

=item Thread-Prefix

When generating thread output from this file, use the value as the initial
content of the generated thread.  This field should almost always be set if
any output files of type C<thread> are defined.  It will contain such things
as the C<\heading> command, any prologue material, initial headings, and so
forth.

=item Title

The title of the feed, used only in the RSS output.  This should always be set
if there are any RSS output files.

=back

=head2 Entries

After the first block, each subsequent block in the input file defines an
entry.  Entries take the following fields:

=over 4

=item Date

The date of this entry in ISO date format (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM).  This field is
required.

=item Description

The inline contents of this entry.  One and only one of this field,
C<Journal>, or C<Review> should be present.  C<Description> fields can only be
used with output types of C<rss> or C<thread>.

=item Journal

Specifies that the content of this entry should be read from an external
thread file given by the value of this field.  The contents of that file are
expected to be in the thread format used by my journal entries:  specifically,
everything is ignored up to the first C<\h1> and after the C<\date> macro, and
the C<\date> line is stripped off (the date information from the C<Date> field
is used instead).

One and only one of this field, C<Description>, or C<Review> should be
present.

=item Link

The link to the page referenced by this entry.  The link is relative to the
C<Base> field set in the input file metadata.  This field is required.

=item Review

Specifies that the content of this entry should be read from an external
thread file given by the value of this field.  The contents of that file are
expected to be in the thread format used by my book reviews.

Many transformations are applied to entries of this sort based on the format
used by my book reviews and the URL layout they use, none of which is
documented at present.  For the time being, see the source code for what
transformations are done.  This support will require modification for use by
anyone else.

One and only one of this field, C<Description>, or C<Review> should be
present.

=item Tags

Whitespace-separated tags for this entry, used to determine whether this entry
will be included in a given output file given its output specification.  In
addition to any tags listed here, any entry with a C<Review> field will
automatically have the C<review> tag.

Entries may have no tags, in which case they're only included in output files
with a tag specification of C<*>.

=item Title

The title of the entry.  This field is required.

=back

=head1 NOTES

RSS 2.0 was chosen as the output format because it supports GUIDs for entries
separate from the entry URLs and hence supports multiple entries for the same
URL, something that I needed for an RSS feed of recent changes to my entire
site.
