RSS Feed for new classes?

[redroosterkey]

Does such a thing exist?

It currently seems that the only way to gain awareness of new classes/events is to periodically check the calendar.

This is as closest as I know remember exists…

Updated Android App for Tracking Events Added to the DMS Calendar

The “Dallas Makerspace New Event Tracker” app has been updated to pull from the new calendar feed (versus the now inactive DMS meetup.com feed). Each time “Retrieve New Events” is pressed, the calendar feed is retrieved and only the newly added events since the last retrieval are displayed. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.technoprobic.android.dmsnewevents

RSS, no there’s a issue request for that

Issue: DMS Feed shows as Vcard

We’ll accept any pull request that resolves this issue especially if it has unit testing and fully implements both vcard and RSS+Atom.

If it helps you at all, what I’ve been doing is pressing the “Created Recently” button and then clicking it again to list the most recently posted classes.

I do that just about every day.

yeah no need to pound on the server. Just subscribe to the feed in google calendar. A Howto is available.

Thanks for the how-to link. I haven’t used RSS feeds since they got rid of “iGoogle”

Personally, I still use rss feeds via feedly and command line tools since its way better than having to deal with webhooks or apis for simple repeating task.

But keep in mind the feed link is a iCal not a rss. Difference being one’s a calendar event file and the other is a “news feed”.
