RSS Source Properties

When you create a RSS source, you enter the name and the configuration details for the source through the RulePoint user interface.

The following table describes the configuration properties of a RSS source:

Property	Description
Name	Name of the source. The source name must be unique.
Description	(Optional) The description of the service. Make the description intuitive so that other users can relate to the use of this service.
Type	Type of source. Select RSS/Atom Source .
Topic	The topic to which the RulePoint posts the events. Select the topic name that corresponds to the source.
URL	The URL for the RSS news feed.
User Name	(Optional) The user name to access the specified URL if the URL requires authentication.
Password	(Optional)The password associated with the user name required to access the specified URL.
Last Published Date	The date and time of posting the most recent event by this service. The RSS source publishes items with dates after the last published date. The date is updated automatically based on the contents of the RSS or ATOM source. Format for Last Published Date: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss z
Marker ID	(Optional) The name to assign to the marker. This is the batch name that the sever associates with all published events. Avoid using multiple batch names as the system treats them as a single string. Specify one batch name for each source. When you configure a marker ID in the source, it demarcates a set of events between the marker_begin and the marker_end event. For more information, see "Markers" in the RulePoint Administration Guide .
Property Metadata Map	(Optional) The unique name-value pairs of static metadata or additional information about this service that becomes part of the event properties. Do not use a null value for any property. Do not include space in the name of the metadata property. The name-value pairs appear in every event published by this source service. Format for Property Metadata: Name=Jane Doe, Age=10 If you input an entry that contains a delimiter, such as a comma or a semicolon, you must place the entry into a quote. Putting a numeric entry into quotes makes it a string or non numeric. You cannot do math computation with a non numeric entry.
Marshaller Class Name	Class name of the marshaller. The marshaller class is responsible for converting or enriching the source event properties. It must include the full class name including the classpath. You must add the jar containing this class into the RulePoint library.
Marshaller Properties	Properties of the marshaller. You must pass the properties as key value pairs, separated by a comma, to the marshaller class. For example, property1=value1,property2=value2.
