Another contribution this week for Tapestry 5 after the awesome “tapestry5-installer” : an integration of the Rome library. Rome is kind of a Java standard for generating Atom and RSS feeds.

Rome gives you all you need to produce feeds. The only thing that may be tricky for newcomers to Tapestry 5 then is not how to produce them but how to return them. This is what “tapestry5-rome” contribution is doing: offering the possibility for action methods to return feeds.

Want to see a sample? Check out the test page source code. Install instructions can be found in the readme file.

Don’t forget to follow “spreadthesource” on Github to stay informed for any contributions updates.
