Python - Constantly monitor RSS feed (feedparser)

2.2k views Asked by At

I'm trying to figure out how to 'subscribe', or constantly monitor an RSS feed (Python 2.7, using feedparser).

The website I'm looking at is DTCC, at the "RSS Feed for Credits".

When you download the rss file, I can use feedparser to parse that, see the information contained inside etc, and thats all great. But, because the file downloads locally, it obviously doesnt constantly update with new information. My goal is to parse each rss reed as it comes in - and to build the event handler such that the parser kicks off when a new feed is released / new data does come in.

The rss file itself is stored here if it helps.

Any help is appreciated!
