Feed Description: Scott Hanselman's ComputerZen.com is a .NET/WebServices/XML Weblog. I offer details of obscurities (internals of ASP.NET, WebServices, XML, etc) and best practices from real world scenarios.
Greg Hughes once had a LiveJournal
Blog and the only remnant of his blog was an RSS Feed/Archive. Now that he runs dasBlog
he wanted to move his old content foward into dasBlog. So, we googled a
bit and couldn't find a tool that would take an RSS (2.0) feed as input and put the
entries into dasBlog.
RSStoDasBlog.exe MyRssFile.xml "C:\documents and
settings\whatever\dasblog\content"
Use it like this by pointing it to the RSS file and your (local) dasBlog content folder.
It will create all the needed dayentry.xml files for you to upload to your remote
blog. It will also (I think) take an http:// url to an RSS file and could be
used to (possible as a service?) steal RSS and mirror them in dasBlog. Thanks
to Jerry (Chris) Maguire's
RSS Framework that showed up first in Google and saved me the time of running
XSD.exe on an RSS XML schema. Apparently he
has even newer stuff on his site. It's got a few more moving parts than
I think it needs to, but it did the job with a few changes that I marked with my initials;
SDH.
