hAtom

hAtom is a microformat for content that can be syndicated, primarily but not exclusively weblog postings. hAtom is a strongly based on a subset of the Atom syndication format; every concept in hAtom has a corresponding definition in Atom.

This microformat is a draft; please address your concerns, issues, comments, etc. in hatom-issues.

Introduction

Semantic XHTML Design Principles

Note: the Semantic XHTML Design Principles were written primarily within the context of developing hCard and hCalendar, thus it may be easier to understand these principles in the context of the hCard design methodology (i.e. read that first). Tantek

XHTML is built on XML, and thus XHTML based formats can be used not only for convenient display presentation, but also for general purpose data exchange. In many ways, XHTML based formats exemplify the best of both HTML and XML worlds. However, when building XHTML based formats, it helps to have a guiding set of principles.

  1. Reuse the schema (names, objects, properties, values, types, hierarchies, constraints) as much as possible from pre-existing, established, well-supported standards by reference. Avoid restating constraints expressed in the source standard. Informative mentions are ok.
    1. For types with multiple components, use nested elements with class names equivalent to the names of the components.
    2. Plural components are made singular, and thus multiple nested elements are used to represent multiple text values that are comma-delimited.
  2. Use the most accurately precise semantic XHTML building block for each object etc.
  3. Otherwise use a generic structural element (e.g. <span> or <div>), or the appropriate contextual element (e.g. an <li> inside a <ul> or <ol>).
  4. Use class names based on names from the original schema, unless the semantic XHTML building block precisely represents that part of the original schema. If names in the source schema are case-insensitive, then use an all lowercase equivalent. Components names implicit in prose (rather than explicit in the defined schema) should also use lowercase equivalents for ease of use. Spaces in component names become dash '-' characters.
  5. Finally, if the format of the data according to the original schema is too long and/or not human-friendly, use <abbr> instead of a generic structural element, and place the literal data into the 'title' attribute (where abbr expansions go), and the more brief and human readable equivalent into the element itself. Further informative explanation of this use of <abbr>: Human vs. ISO8601 dates problem solved

Format

In General

The Atom Syndication Format provides the conceptual basis for this microformat, with the following caveats:

  • Atom provides a lot more functionality that we need for a "blog post" microformat, so we've taken the minimal number of elements needed. This can (and probably should) be expanded.
  • the "logical" model of hAtom is that of Atom. If there is a conflict, Atom should be taken as correct.
  • the "physical" model of hAtom -- the actual writing of elements -- is a lot more varied than Atom provides for, due to the variety of ways weblogs are actually produced in the wild. The hAtom microformat provides a number of rules for "briding the gap"
for example, if an entry is missing an author (required by Atom), it is assumed to be that of the XHTML page

Schema

Schema elements are based on the Atom nomenclature and follow the microformat pattern of prefixing a unique identifier (in this case, atom) on the outermost container elements -- the Feed or Entry. The parts of this microformat are based on analysis of many weblog, bulletin board and media posts and can be read blog-post-brainstorming#Discovered_Elements. Note the renaming of 'EntryGroup' to 'Feed' to be more consistent with Atom ternminology.

Nomenclature

Concept Atom Identifier hAtom Microformat Usage
Feed atom:feed add class="feed"
Feed Title atom:title Not defined in the first iteration of this proposal.
Feed Permalink atom:link@rel=alternate Not defined in the first iteration of this proposal.
Entry atom:entry Add class="entry"; if practical, also define id="unique-identifier" to the Entry.
Entry Title atom:title Use <h#> in block elements; OR non-preferentially add class="title" in inline elements.
Entry Content atom:content Add class="content" to all appropriate blocks. Multiple Entry Content blocks are logically considered one concatenated atom:content equivalent.
Entry Summary atom:summary Add class="summary" to all appropriate blocks. Multiple Entry Summary blocks are logically considered one concatenated atom:summary equivalent.
Entry Permalink atom:link Add rel="bookmark".
Entry Published atom:published Use <abbr class="published" title="YYYYMMYYThh:mm:ss±ZZ:ZZ">...</abbr>, following the datetime-design-pattern.
Entry Author atom:author Use <address>...</address>. Adding class="author" is optional. Adding a hCard is highly recommended.

hAtom Opaque

"hAtom Opaque" specifies whether a hAtom parser should "look inside" the element for further hAtom content. If there are multiple rules applied to the same element take the OR of the two (i.e. "Yes" always wins)

hAtom Opaque is designed to make parsing rules less ambiguous. In particular, it allows "quoted" hAtom elements (from another blog being blockquoted, for example) ti be ignored. It also allows 'embedded' hAtom to be potentially delivered within hAtom itself, and to prevent accidental 'leaking' of other microformat information up into the hAtom container.
Cardinality

How many times can an element of the given type appear in it's nesting/parent element.

Logical Cardinality

From a modeling/logical perspective, the number of times can an element appear.

This is all rule dependent, see below. For example, an Entry Permalink may appear 6 times, but each one must be the same value; an Entry Content element may appear 3 times, but they are all concatenated together to make a single logical element.

Rules and Definitions

See the Nesting Rules section above for placement of these elements.

Feed
  • an XHTML Feed element is identified by class="feed"
  • a Feed element represents the concept of an atom feed
In particular, as a container for Entrys.
  • the Feed element is required, even if there is a single Entry
This is for disambiguation
  • hAtom documents MAY have multiple, non-nested Feed elements
This may happen on news pages, or weblogs with "mini-blogs" on the sidebar.
Entry
  • an Entry element is identified by class="entry"
  • an Entry element represents the concept of an atom entry
  • a weblog entry MUST be enclosed in a single Entry element
That's what it's for, after all.
  • an Entry MUST have an enclosing Feed element
Entry Title
  • an Entry Title element is identified <h#> in block elements OR non-preferentially class="title" in inline elements
  • an Entry Title element represents the concept of an atom entry title
Disambiguation
  • the first hAtom valid <h#> element to appear in an hAtom document is the Entry Title
  • otherwise, the first hAtom valid non-<abbr> element with a class="title" is the Entry Title
hAtom valid meaning somewhere where we expect it (like not inside Entry Content, for example).
  • otherwise, the Entry Title is the empty string
Atom does not allow for an entry not to have a title.
Entry Content
  • an Entry Content element is identified by class="content"
  • an Entry Content element represents the concept of an atom content
  • an Entry MAY have 0 or more Entry Content elements
We recognize this varies from the Atom spec: see the next rule.
  • the "logical Entry Content" of an Entry is the concatenation, in order of appearance, of all the Entry Contents within the Entry
Many weblogs split content into multiple sections with a "Read More" link and javascript tricks. This is also needed in cases where Entry Titles are coded inline and are considered part of the content.
  • the "logical Entry Content" MUST be complete; that is, contain the entire content of the Entry
Otherwise it should be marked as Entry Summary.
Entry Summary
  • an Entry Summary element is identified by class="summary"
  • an Entry Summary element represents the concept of an atom summary
  • an Entry MAY have 0 or more Entry Summary elements
We recognize this varies from the Atom spec: see the next rule.
  • the "logical Entry Summary" of an Entry is the concatenation, in order of appearance, of all the Entry Summarys within the Entry
  • the "logical Entry Summary" may differ in different copies of the Entry
There is the major difference with Entry Content. We can summarize an Entry in different way in different places with no requirement for consistency. There may be issues with this for modelers: if so, take it up in hatom-issues.
Entry Permalink
  • an Entry Permalink element is identified by rel="bookmark"
We recognize that we have broken from Atom terminology at this point. See hatom-issues for discussion.
This may be a microformat in itself: rel-bookmark.
  • an Entry Permalink element represents the concept of an atom link in an entry
  • Entry Permalinks MUST be absolute URIs
  • Entry Permalinks MUST be the same as the atom:link (or rss:link) used in syndication feeds
The intention of the previous two rules to gently force people to use strings that can be byte compared for equivalence. In general, the canonical URI should be the link used in an Atom entry.
Is there a problem with FeedBurner?
  • if an Entry has multiple elements marked as the Entry Permalink, they MUST have exactly the same URI
  • an Entry SHOULD have an Entry Permalink
There are circumstances (such as media pages) where this won't happen. See the next rule.
  • there can be at most 1 Entry in an XHTML document without an Entry Permalink; the Entry Permalink of this Entry is the URI of the page
This rule is needed for media pages (i.e. a news article on cnn.com). There is some ugliness of with this because the URI could be non-canonical.
Disambiguation
  • The first valid element in an Entry marked as an Entry Permalink is the Entry Permalink
Entry Published
  • an Entry Published element is identified by class="published"
  • a Entry Published element represents the concept of an atom published
  • the machine readable datetime should be encoded with an <abbr> element using the datetime-design-pattern; the machine readable datetime should be complete, that is, specified to the second with the timezone included
Disambiguation
  • The first valid element in an Entry marked as an Entry Published is the Entry Published element
Entry Author
  • an Entry Author element is identified by an XHTML <address> element
  • an Entry Author element represents the concept of an atom author
  • an Entry Author element SHOULD contain an hCard
  • an Entry Author element MAY add class="author"
Atom defines other levels of "person", such as "contributor". It may be necessary to distinguish this at times
  • an Entry MAY have 0 or more Entry Author elements
  • if an Entry has 0 Entry Athor elements, the "logical Entry Author" is assumed to be the author of the XHTML page
Atom requires at least one Author
