Feedme
======
Elixir RSS/Atom parser built on erlang's **xmerl** xml parser. It uses [timex](https://github.com/bitwalker/timex) for parsing dates.

## Setup

Add **feedme** into your mix dependencies and applications:

```elixir
def application do
  [applications: [:feedme]]
end

defp deps do
  [{:feedme, "~> 0.1.1"}]
end
```
Then run ```mix deps.get``` to install feedme.

## Parsing

Feedme expose only one function named ```parse/1```. Parse function detects the feed format as **rss** or **atom**.

```elixir
{:ok, xml_string} = File.read("some.xml")
{:ok, feed} = Feedme.parse(xml_string)
