h-feed is a microformats2 experiment with a top level feed object to contain h-entry posts.

From experience with hAtom, it's not clear that there's actually a need (use-case) for a top level feed, but for those that wish to experiment with it, here it is.

root class name: h-feed

properties:

  • p-name - name of the feed
  • p-author - author of the feed, optionally embed an h-card
    Main article: h-card
  • u-url - URL of the feed
  • u-photo - representative photo / icon for the feed

children:

  • nested h-entry objects representing the items of the feed

Examples in the wild

  • http://tantek.com/ uses h-feed with p-name and p-author properties and child h-entry posts.
  • ...

Parsing

When parsing a page for an h-feed, do so per microformats2.

Fallback:

If there is no explicit "h-feed" element, implementations may:

  • Treat the <title> of the page as the p-name
  • Use http://indiewebcamp.com/authorship to discover authorship of posts.
  • Treat top level h-entry elements as items in the feed.
