- .. _reference.feed.info_detail:
- :py:attr:`feed.info_detail`
- ===========================
- A dictionary with details about the feed info.
- .. rubric:: Comes from
- * /atom03:feed/atom03:info
- .. seealso::
- * :ref:`reference.feed.info`
- .. _reference.feed.info_detail.value:
- :py:attr:`feed.info_detail.value`
- ---------------------------------
- Same as :ref:`reference.feed.info`.
- If this contains :abbr:`HTML (HyperText Markup Language)` or :abbr:`XHTML
- (Extensible HyperText Markup Language)`, it is :ref:`sanitized
- <advanced.sanitization>` by default.
- If this contains :abbr:`HTML (HyperText Markup Language)` or :abbr:`XHTML
- (Extensible HyperText Markup Language)`, certain (X)HTML elements within this
- value may contain relative :abbr:`URI (Uniform Resource Identifier)`s. If so,
- they are :ref:`resolved according to a set of rules <advanced.base>`.
- .. _reference.feed.info_detail.type:
- :py:attr:`feed.info_detail.type`
- --------------------------------
- The content type of the feed info.
- Most likely values for :py:attr:`~feed.info_detail.type`:
- * :mimetype:`text/plain`
- * :mimetype:`text/html`
- * :mimetype:`application/xhtml+xml`
- For Atom feeds, the content type is taken from the type attribute, which
- defaults to :mimetype:`text/plain` if not specified. For :abbr:`RSS (Rich Site
- Summary)` feeds, the content type is auto-determined by inspecting the content,
- and defaults to :mimetype:`text/html`. Note that this may cause silent data
- loss if the value contains plain text with angle brackets. There is nothing I
- can do about this problem; it is a limitation of :abbr:`RSS (Rich Site
- Summary)`.
- Future enhancement: some versions of :abbr:`RSS (Rich Site Summary)` clearly
- specify that certain values default to :mimetype:`text/plain`, and
- :program:`Universal Feed Parser` should respect this, but it doesn't yet.
- :py:attr:`feed.info_detail.language`
- ------------------------------------
- The language of the feed info.
- :py:attr:`~feed.info_detail.language` is supposed to be a language code, as
- specified by `:abbr:`RFC (Request For Comments)` 3066
- <http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3066.txt>`_, but publishers have been known to
- publish random values like "English" or "German". :program:`Universal Feed
- Parser` does not do any parsing or normalization of language codes.
- :py:attr:`~feed.info_detail.language` may come from the element's xml:lang
- attribute, or it may inherit from a parent element's xml:lang, or the
- Content-Language :abbr:`HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol)` header. If the
- feed does not specify a language, :py:attr:`~feed.info_detail.language` will be
- ``None``, the :program:`Python` null value.
- :py:attr:`feed.info_detail.base`
- --------------------------------
- The original base :abbr:`URI (Uniform Resource Identifier)` for links within
- the feed copyright.
- :py:attr:`~feed.info_detail.base` is only useful in rare situations and can
- usually be ignored. It is the original base :abbr:`URI (Uniform Resource
- Identifier)` for this value, as specified by the element's xml:base attribute,
- or a parent element's xml:base, or the appropriate :abbr:`HTTP (Hypertext
- Transfer Protocol)` header, or the :abbr:`URI (Uniform Resource Identifier)` of
- the feed. (See :ref:`advanced.base` for more details.) By the time you see
- it, :program:`Universal Feed Parser` has already resolved relative links in all
- values where it makes sense to do so. *Clients should never need to manually
- resolve relative links.*
