Lifestream, ala WordPress
UPDATE: I have a fix for the time problems. You need to add the following code right after line 93 of stream.php (that line should look like this: $date = strtotime( substr( $item['pubdate'], 0, 25 ) );):$date -= 3600*N;
Where N is how many hours you need to remove. If you need to add time, then change the -= to +=
I really like the concept of Jermey Keith's Lifestream, and after reading Mike's cry in the dark for something akin to this, that caches, I decided to create a plugin/page template combo that replicated Jeremy's code, but using only bits and bots that are present in WordPress.
This doesn't really address much of Mike's needs... I am pretty sure I could easily wedge this data into an RSS feed if I wanted to, but I don't really care to at the moment. Maybe tomorrow. What this does do is use the bundled versions of snoopy and magpieRSS to query and render the content.
This gives us built in caching, and a mechanism for retrieving the data that gets around host restrictions on fopen and the like.
There are currently two caveats to this code:
- Twitter doesn't have a valid RSS feed, so magpie chokes on it. A quick trip through feedburner fixes that right up.
- I can't for the life of me, get my del.icio.us feed to display correctly. A trip through Feedburner couldn't even fix it.
So there swell, I have a Lifestream, now I just need to stay on top of updating it. If you would like to take it for a spin, you can download the code, sans CSS, over here

This is great; i hope ;) -- How does it store the data?

Hey Mike,
Yeah, as I was saying in the post, this doesn't really meet your requirements. The content is saved as a serialized RSS object in the options table. I could look into saving it to the post table in the future.Matthew,
I was just about to suggest that. I had though self was a valid construct for PHP 4, guess not. As for the timezone thing, I don't think it is actually working, so don't sweat it. I will be releasing an update that finds the time another way.

Awesome Chris. I was wondering when you'd release the code for this after your mentioning it on Twitter (yes, I'm that in tune with your life.... *cue spooky music*).
Anyways, it would be cool to have this data stored somewhere (or archived) for that matter, but in the internim it looks nifty, so yeah, thanks!
Stroll on over and visit Chris J. Davis
March 1, 2007
kristin,
Yeah, magpie chokes on ATOM feeds for some reason. From a once over of the code, it should handle them, but something is b0rken.Also magpie is a stickler for well formed feeds, so if there is an error in a feed it won't be displayed. That is what is happening with Twitter's feed.
Kartooner,
I am not sure what the use of that would be, but that hasn't stopped me from coding things in the past, so why let it stop me now?
This is very much a 1.0 release, expect better error handling, and feed handling in the next major release. There will be a quick error fix release today sometime I imagine.

Dennis,
Off the top of my head, I would think it is the fact that the template file
stream.phpis set up for my theme, and not yours. Experiment with working the lifestream code into one of your existing page templates and see how that works.Stroll on over and visit Sean

You don't know how long I've been thinking about something like this. Thanks for a wonderful plugin. I second the idea of this being put into a database and then presenting it form their. It would allow endless cross referencing and a search ability. For some reason my del.icio.us is only posting a link I saved about 6 months. It's the last item in the feed and it's indicated it was posted yesterday (but in the feed it says March). Other then that I realized for some reason flickr's time was behind 3 hours but everything else was 5 hours ahead so I added a little something to your time stamp update above (also the parentheses and colon in your example through me off for a sec) .
$date = strtotime( substr( $item['pubdate'], 0, 25 ) );
if( $name == "life_flickr") {
$date += 3600*3;
}
else {
$date -= 3600*5;
}
Thanks again Chris.

When I first stumbled across JK's stream, I wonder how long will it takes for someone to write a WP plugin of the equivalent. Well it certainly doesn't take too long, does it?!
Nice work. Although I know a couple of people have had problem with magpieRSS's caching because of the lack of file locking mechanism. That could lead to cache corruption that can sometimes occur when there are a large amount of concurrent users trying to read and write to your cached rss data.
But I wont take the credit away from you, nice job!
FYI: You can try looking into pear's cache_lite in the future for better caching capability.

March 1, 2007
chris... i'm sure this is already possible in the code, but i couldn't quite figure where to make the change.
a good addition would be to control how many days show - when i figure it out i'll likely keep it to the last week.
if it were archived, i suppose you could go back and check out previous weeks.

i just found out from feedburner that once you put feeds through their format conversion, they can't garuntee what timezone it will come out representing.
i've tried diong this to manage the times:
$date = strtotime( substr( $item['pubdate'], 0, 25 ) );
if( $name == "life_flickr") {
$date += 3600*3;
}
else if( $name == "life_delicious") {
$date += 3600*1;
}
else {
$date -= 3600*6;
}
this is the point where it becomes obvious i'm a hack at php and i start messing things up... it's working to some extent, but some of the times still aren't working 100% not even sure if there's anything that could be done about this in the actually plugin.

I did the same exact thing Sean. I had to add more code for twitter's time (when it finally came back up yesterday and I was able to get it to run thru feedburner).
if( $name == "life_flickr") {
$date += 3600*3;
}
elseif( $name == "life_twitter") {
$date += 3600;

i just noticed that lifestream doesn't cache entries from last.fm - it only keeps track of the last 10 songs. so, if you've played 5 songs today, it will only have 5 songs from the day before - or 3 songs from yesterday and 2 songs from the day before that...
so basically, in your entire lifestream it will only show the last 10 songs you've played.

Chris thanks for the great plugin, but as usual I'm having a few problems.
The LifeStream installed and is working but some feeds are not showing up; namely Twitter and Del.icio.us. I've run them both through FeedBurner just to be on the safe side and according to the stats there is a WordPress bot subscribed but nothing appears in the list.
I can only presume that it is timing out or something, is there a way to over come this?
Cheers.

Nice. I do a similar thing with my site. Actually, with my Stalker Feed, rather than on the web page per se yet - stupid final privacy concern. Have been considering uniting on the page, though; maybe I'll implement this or maybe I'll feed everything into FeedWordpress to keep it on-site.

Are the download broken?

Hey, great plugin, but I'm not quite able to use it. I have no idea where to find my lifestream once everything seems to be working inside the WP admin. However, I can just pull up "stream.php" which is in my theme's directory. The catch is, I get all sorts of abspath errors. Well, just the one. When I try to correct it, I get another error that suggests WP's rss.php is getting confused by me invoking it from inside my theme directory. I have a sneaking suspicion that this is all because I insist on keeping my wp install *not* in the root and inside a subdirectory instead. Any idea if this is the case and if so how I can fix it?

Hey ThePete.
There could very well be errors in the plugin and newer versions of WordPress. Since I have moved on from WordPress, I am no longer maintaining these plugins, so I am not sure what help I can give.
Sorry mate.
