Last.fm RSS Generator

Future Work

• Look into changing URI structure to use plain directory as end point: /lastfm/username
• Perhaps /lastfm/username generates HTML, /lastfm/username/rss generates a feed
• Change file name to index.php to accommodate above or handle via .htaccess rewrite
• Determine how the above changes work with Kirby install
• Remove duplicate text for artist, since it’s included with the track information
• Add filtering modes or features via query string attributes, eg:
  • &mode=text - text of artist and track only
  • &mode=link - link to track page only
• Add thumbnail size setting via query string attribute (PR #1), eg:
  • &size=300 - set the thumbnail size to 300x300 pixels
• Better handling of passing a null username
• Add atom:link with rel="self" per W3C Feed Validator recommendations
