RSS Feeds

[chrisjm]

Goal

We want the Open Brewery DB Discord bot to regularly check a list of RSS feeds and embed new posts into a specified channel or channels.

Implementation Notes

• Scheduling - A simple cron job should do it unless there are other suggestions.
• Storage - How and where do we store the data? Plain text file? MongoDB? Do we store the posts? (my initial thought is to just store the feed and last time the feed was checked, so plain text CSV would probably do fine, but I'm open to using MongoDB or another DB if you want practice).
• Server - This will live on an existing Digital Ocean Ubuntu droplet. Contact @chrisjm for access and/or to set up additional services.
