12 days agoI’ve coded this and I’m a retard. Relative portion from a method:
from urllib.request import urlopen
foundrss = False
for line in urlopen(self.channelurl):
for word in line.split():
if foundrss:
if not self.feedurl:
self.feedurl = word.split(b'"')[1].decode("utf-8")
if 'xml' not in self.feedurl:
raise Exception("'xml' not found in feedurl")
elif not self.channelname: # feed url is set, extract the channel name that comes soon after
if word.startswith(b'content='): # start collecting words
self.channelname = [word.split(b'"')[1].decode("utf-8")]
if word.count(b'"') == 2: # channel name is a single word
self.channelname = self.channelname[0]
return
else: # we have channelname started, just collect the rest of the words now
if b'"' in word: # get text to the left of "
self.channelname.append(word.split(b'"')[0].decode("utf-8"))
self.channelname = ' '.join(self.channelname)
return
else:
self.channelname.append(word.decode("utf-8"))
elif word == b'title="RSS"':
foundrss = True
It doesn’t work if you put snow in quotes dingus
