Building a Simple RSS reader, retrieving content

问题

I am trying to make a simple RSS reader using SyndicationFeed class.

There are some standard tags, like <title>, <link>, <description>... there is no problem with them.

But there are some other tags. for example, in this feed, which created by WordPress, there is <content:encoded> tag. I think there may be other tags for the content part of other websites. right?

I want to know, how to find the main content of every post, is there any standards? which tags should I look for?

(for example, a site may use <content:encoded> but some other just use <description> or someone use another standard... I don't know what to do for retrieving the main content of a post)

P.S : I'm using this code for testing my simple RSS reader:

        var reader = XmlReader.Create("http://feed.2barnamenevis.com/2barnamenevis");
        var feed = SyndicationFeed.Load(reader);

        string s = "";
        foreach (SyndicationItem i in feed.Items)
        {
            s += i.Title.Text + "<br />" + i.Summary.Text + "<br />" + i.PublishDate.ToString() + "<br />";
            foreach (SyndicationElementExtension extension in i.ElementExtensions)
            {
                XElement ele = extension.GetObject<XElement>();
                s += ele.Name + " :: " + ele.Value + "<br />";
            }
            s += "<hr />";
        }
        return s;

From our discussion in the comments, I'd probably suggest going with a 3rd party vendor instead of building it from scratch - Argotic and RSS.NET both look promising.

Depends on what you want to support. Content element isn't part of RSS2.0 but is is of Atom (rss 4287).

Read RSS2.0 specs http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/rss/rss.html#hrelementsOfLtitemgt Read Atom specs http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4287

I have found Argotic Syndication Framework (thanks from JoeEnos).

Argotic has many Extensions, which can be used for handling elements which are not standard.

For example, You can use Argotic.Extensions.Core.SiteSummaryContentSyndicationExtension for retrieving <content:encoded>. You can see an example here. (if that example returns null for content, you should simply use MyRssItem.Description)

Some other useful extensions are WellFormedWebCommentsSyndicationExtension (for retrieving comments feed url) and SiteSummarySlashSyndicationExtension (for retrieving comments count).
