Remove article from feed after fetch?

swerling · 09-23-2014, 02:55 PM

I'd like to remove articles after they have been fetched based on information scraped out of the article content.

Anyone have an example of this? I'm currently doing it by overriding _preprocess_html() and removing the article from the feed. Almost but no cigar (it throws off the toc a bit).

Simply return None from preprocess_raw_html() that will cause the downloading of the article to abort with an error, skipping it.
