Django feed templates and how do I use them with images?

[PeterR]

Hi,

I like to generate a feed with text and image. My objective is the
communication between a client and the RSS feed django server.

Similar to text, you find at feedparser the following explanation for
a image in a RSS feed:

>>

This is a feed image:

<image>
<title>Feed logo</title>
<url>http://example.org/logo.png</url>
<link>http://example.org/</link>
<width>80</width>
<height>15</height>
<description>Visit my home page</description>
</image>

This feed image could be rendered in HTML as this:

<a href="http://example.org/">
<img src="http://example.org/logo.png"
width="80"
height="15"
alt="Feed logo"
title="Visit my home page">
</a>

I like to ask which part is what I need to include in the Django feed
template ?? The explanation of feed templates is somehow very short?
Should I have two templates, one for RSS(XML) and one for HTML?

Thank you for your help.

Peter

Not exactly what you want, but if you are trying to publish images in
your RSS feed with each item: I did this by putting an <img> tag
inside the description. Look at the way they did the feed here:
http://ciclops.org/rssfeed.php this feed w3c validates and seems to
work as desired everywhere I've tried it (feedly, Ning, firefox's
display of the feed)

Code is just the ordinary from the docs:

class LatestImagesFeed(Feed):
title = "feed title"
link = "mysite.com"
description = "Feed Description"

def items(self):
return Image.objects.filter(pub_date__isnull=False).order_by('-
pub_date')[:10]

def item_title(self, item):
return item.title

def item_description(self, item):
desc ='<img width = "144" src = "' + 'http://
media.mysite.com/' + str(item.jpg) + '"> '
desc += str(item.Description)
return desc

def item_link(self,item):
return 'http://mysite.com/' + str(item.pub_date)
