Comment:
This is now done, and available on my branch
'135-twitter_box_and_CSS_fixes'.
Tibor, I took some shortcuts (hardcoding configuration in the script, for
example) because this is for the inspire tree, not for inclusion into
Invenio.
If you thought that something like this would be useful or desirable for
Invenio, I'd probably do these things (on a fresh ticket. :) )
* feedboxes would get its configuration from a set of files in
/opt/invenio/etc/feedboxes; each file would provide a feed definition.
These would consist of the feed address (which may be STATIC to indicate
content which doesn't change), the preamble and the postfix for that batch
of content.
* The Makefile would create portalbox db entries based on the configs for
feedboxes (so it would probably be done as part of --update-all)
* Rather than a cron job, feedboxes would be updates to run as a bibsched
service.
But in any case, I think having the RSS feeds is important to Travis, and
while I was adjusting the CSS I fixed some annoyances, so this should make
the site look nicer, too.
