Simple Pie with Silverstripe
19 January 2011 at 2:56am Last edited: 19 January 2011 4:03am
Hey All. I've been using this tutorial to create an RSS aggregator on a site I'm working on.
I have the following code above the doctype in one off my .ss tamplates pages:
<?php
//get the simplepie library
require_once('assets/simplepie.inc');//grab the feed
$feed = new SimplePie();$feed->set_feed_url(array(
'http://feeds2.feedburner.com/CssTricks',
'http://smashingmagazine.com',
));//enable caching
$feed->enable_cache(true);//provide the caching folder
$feed->set_cache_location('assets/cache');//set the amount of seconds you want to cache the feed
$feed->set_cache_duration(1800);//init the process
$feed->init();//let simplepie handle the content type (atom, RSS...)
$feed->handle_content_type();?>
I have the simplepie.inc file in the assets folder and a cache directory with full writeable permissions, but unfortunately I'm getting the followng error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_REQUIRE_ONCE in /tmp/silverstripe-cache-home-isslcom1-public_html/.cache.themes.blackcandy.templates.news.ss on line 9
Would really appreciate any help.

OK I've realised that the template files can't process the php from directly within the template file and I would need to call this php code from the php file for that specific page type.
I have no idea how to do this though. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Yes all PHP code should be in your PHP file!
For a start make a new custom page type (as the tutorials explain) then you can make a custom function which returns a set of all your entries. See http://pastie.org/1479977 for a simple example.
You can also use RestfulService for this sort of work - http://doc.silverstripe.org/sapphire/en/reference/restfulservice#other-uses
