So I'm trying to write the ps3center recipe that was requested here. I've got the python for grabbing the correct "print" version, but the print version html doesn't come back with <title> or <body> which I think ebook-convert is looking for. The html in the print version is quite simple, but I can't figure out how to get it so ebook-convert will like it. Can someone who knows take a look?

Code:

class AdvancedUserRecipe1262158494(BasicNewsRecipe):
    title          = u'PS3Center'
    oldest_article = 7
    max_articles_per_feed = 100

    feeds          = [(u'PS3 Center', u'http://www.ps3center.net/rss.xml')]

    def print_version(self, url):
        article_id = url.split('/')[5]
        return 'http://www.ps3center.net/print.php?id=' +article_id

the print version looks like this:
http://www.ps3center.net/print.php?id=4216

You could try the following: add the following line at the top of your file (before the class declaration)

Code:

from calibre.ebooks.BeautifulSoup import BeautifulSoup

Then add the following method:

Code:

    def preprocess_html(self, soup):
        tag = soup.find('td')
        for attr, value in tag.attrs:
            del tag[attr]
        tag.name = 'div'

        newSoup = BeautifulSoup('<html><head><title></title></head><body></body></html>')
        newSoup.body.append(tag)

        return newSoup

Not tested, but should work.

Here is a recipe for RTE News from Ireland:

Code:

class AdvancedUserRecipe1262344746(BasicNewsRecipe):
    title          = u'RTE News'
    oldest_article = 7
    max_articles_per_feed = 100
    __author__ = u'Robin Phillips'

    remove_tags = [dict(attrs={'class':['topAd','botad','previousNextItem','headline','footerLinks','footernav']})]

    feeds          = [(u'News', u'http://www.rte.ie/rss/news.xml'), (u'Sport', u'http://www.rte.ie/rss/sport.xml'), (u'Soccer', u'http://www.rte.ie/rss/soccer.xml'), (u'GAA', u'http://www.rte.ie/rss/gaa.xml'), (u'Rugby', u'http://www.rte.ie/rss/rugby.xml'), (u'Racing', u'http://www.rte.ie/rss/racing.xml'), (u'Business', u'http://www.rte.ie/rss/business.xml'), (u'Entertainment', u'http://www.rte.ie/rss/entertainment.xml')]

    def print_version(self, url):
        return url.replace('http://www', 'http://m')

Scientific American Mind as I can tell is a subscription based journal. If you want it included you would have to pm your account details to me.

I would love a Recipe for http://www.WoW.com/rss.xml, one that pulls the articles from the link within the RSS feed. I usually use the Death Knight Rss Feed http://www.wow.com/category/death-knight/rss.xml a lot, but when I download through Calibre, it pulls the rss feed, but the article stops at "Click here to continue reading"

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
