RSS feeds from dataverse

[Nilam Prasai]

Dear users and supporters of dataverse, 

I am wondering if there is a way to generate RSS feeds from the dataverse. We are subscribed to IQSS DVN. 

Any suggestion is appreciated. 

Thanks, Nilam

I like the idea of getting RSS feeds from a DVN installation.

What sort of feeds are you thinking of? New studies uploaded? New
dataverses created?

For now you could use the DVN API to create your own RSS feed:

You might also consider configuring automatic tweets from your DVN
installation: http://guides.thedata.org/book/4e-twitter-setup

Hi Nilam,

This might be something we consider as well at theastrodata.org. Two
things that might help you with this is a module in Drupal called Feeds
OAI-PMH Fetcher and Parser or maybe you can use https://ifttt.com?

If you are a programmer then I'm sure you can hack something up in PHP
or Python though. I haven't looked to see if there is a script out there
for this but if you find something, let us know!

Best,
Chris

does your data sharing API have releaseTime (for recently released studies) or downloadCount (for most downloaded studies)?
