RSS pushes out Trac updates whenever they occur and to whoever has subscribed to it. Using the RSS subscription feature in Trac, you can easily monitor progress of the project, a set of issues or even changes to a single file. </p> <p> Trac supports RSS feeds in: </p> <ul><li><a class="wiki" href="/wiki/TracTimeline">TracTimeline</a> — Use the RSS feed to <strong>subscribe to project events</strong>. Monitor overall project progress in your favorite RSS reader. </li><li><a class="wiki" href="/wiki/TracTickets">TracTickets</a>, <a class="wiki" href="/wiki/TracReports">TracReports</a>, and <a class="wiki" href="/wiki/TracQuery">TracQuery</a> — Allows syndication of report and ticket query results.

Stay up to date with changes to a specific file or directory. </li></ul><h2 class="section" id="HowtoaccessRSSdata">How to access RSS data</h2> <p> Where RSS is available in Trac you should find a small orange <strong>RSS</strong> icon, typically at the bottom of the page: </p> <a style="padding-left: 20px; background: url(../../chrome/common/feed.png) left center no-repeat; border: none" rel="nofollow"><span style="color: #666; padding: 0 0 2px; font-size: 11px">RSS feed</span></a> <p> Clicking the icon will access the RSS feed for that specific resource. </p> <p> Different modules provide different data in their RSS feeds. Usually the syndicated information corresponds to the current view. For example, if you click the RSS link on a report page, the feed will be based on that report. It might be explained by thinking of the RSS feeds as an <em>alternate view of the data currently displayed</em>. </p> <p> Since Trac 1.0 an RSS feed can be retrieved from a Trac site that requires authentication. Hover over the RSS icon, right click and <em>copy link address</em>. </p> <h2 class="section" id="Links">Links</h2> <ul><li>Specifications: <ul><li><a class="ext-link" href="https://cyber.harvard.edu/rss/rss.html"><span class="icon"></span>https://cyber.harvard.edu/rss/rss.html</a> — RSS 2.0 Specification. </li></ul></li></ul><ul><li>Multi-platform RSS readers: <ul><li><a class="ext-link" href="http://www.rssowl.org/"><span class="icon"></span>http://www.rssowl.org/</a> — Open source, Eclipse-based, RSS reader for Linux, Mac and Windows systems that supports https and authenticated feeds. </li></ul></li></ul><ul><li>Linux/BSD/*n*x systems: <ul><li><a class="ext-link" href="http://liferea.sourceforge.net/"><span class="icon"></span>http://liferea.sourceforge.net/</a> — Open source GTK2 RSS Reader for Linux. </li><li><a class="ext-link" href="https://kde.org/applications/internet/org.kde.akregator"><span class="icon"></span>Akregator</a> — Open source KDE RSS Reader, part of KDE-PIM. </li></ul></li></ul><ul><li>Mac OS X systems: <ul><li><a class="ext-link" href="https://ranchero.com/netnewswire/"><span class="icon"></span>https://ranchero.com/netnewswire/</a> — An excellent RSS reader for Mac OS X, has both free and paid versions. </li><li><a class="ext-link" href="https://www.utsire.com/shrook/"><span class="icon"></span>https://www.utsire.com/shrook/</a> — An RSS reader for Max OS X that supports https, even with self signed certificates, and authenticated feeds.
