python feedparser <georss:point>55.32967 10.236263</georss:point>

Question

I am trying to the universal feedparser to parse <georss:point>55.32967 10.236263</georss:point> but it's not working. I have tried accessing item['georss'], item['georss:point'] and item['point'] all resulting in a KeyError.

I have tried to follow can feedparser parse geo-rss but it's still not working

Answer 1

I had a look at the keys for each entry and found that the georss:point tag is listed as georss_point, so you can call the coordinate value for the entry with either feed.entry[i].georss_point or feed.entry[i]['georss_point'].

Answer 2

Feedparser does not support georss but there seems to be a patch available at http://code.google.com/p/feedparser/issues/detail?id=62
