This is a simple module that enables the ***feedparser*** with ***Promise***. It depends on the following libraries:-

 1. [request](https://www.npmjs.com/package/request)
 2. [feedparser](https://www.npmjs.com/package/feedparser)

-----------

#Installation

For the installation you can get along with the following
```js
npm install syndication --save
```

The dependencies the above module have is explained below:-

**Request**
A module for making HTTP request. Basically a HTTP client. This helps to fetch the RSS/ATOM/RDF URLS and helps in parsing the same.

**Feedparser**
This module adds methods for RSS, Atom, and RDF feed parsing in node.js using Isaac Schlueter's sax parser.

#Current Features

 1. Simple Parsing using URL's, the scenario is mentioned below
    ```js
    var Syndication = require("syndication");
    var feeds = new Syndication();
    var feedPromise = feeds.fetch('http://thing.live/rss');
    feedPromise.then((feed) => {
      console.log(feed);
    }).catch((error) => {
      console.log(error);
    });
    ```

 2. Using Promise.all() to resolve multiple Promises for fetching feeds.
    ```js
    var Syndication = require("syndication");
    var feeds = new Syndication();
    var fetchedFeeds = feeds.fetch('http://thing.live/rss');
    var fetchedFeeds1 = feeds.fetch('http://rss.cnn.com/rss/edition.rss');
    
    /*Using Promise.all() to Resolve*/
    Promise.all([
        fetchedFeeds,
        fetchedFeeds1
    ]).then((val) => {
        console.log(val);
    }).catch((error) => {
        console.log(error)
    });
    ```
 3. Using fetchAll(options) to get an Array of Promises that can be resolved
    ```js
    var Syndication = require('syndication');

    var feeds = new Syndication();
    var fetchedFeedsPromise=feeds.fetchAll([
        'http://feeds.reuters.com/reuters/INtopNews',
        'http://feeds.reuters.com/reuters/INbusinessNews',
        'http://feeds.reuters.com/reuters/INsouthAsiaNews',
        'http://feeds.reuters.com/reuters/INworldNews'
        ]);
    Promise.all(fetchedFeedsPromise).then((item)=>{
        console.log(item);
    }).catch((e)=>{
        console.log(error)
    });
    ```
