TornadoNews: a feed aggregator built on Tornado
TornadoNews is a small feed aggregator much like Planet written to be small and simple.
It uses the Tornado asynchronous framework to fetch
RSS and ATOM feeds asynchronously and uses its templating engine to generate
the final HTML output. Like Planet, it is intended to be run from a cron
job, with the output served up by a conventional HTTP server (e.g. Apache,
nginx, lighthttpd, OpenBSD httpd, Microsoft IIS, etc...).
Feeds are parsed using the feedparser module, and a composite RSS feed is generated using feedgenerator.
The code works on both Python 2.7 and 3.4. It has been exclusively developed and tested on Linux. It should work with anything that understands POSIX.
