I'm trying to figure out a way to retrieve the itunes elements from this xml feed and can not for the life of me figure it out.
<item>
<title>Episode 41 - Brobdingnagian Lunches To Die For</title>
<pubDate>Fri, 17 Jul 2015 13:00:00 GMT</pubDate>
<dcterms:modified>2015-07-17</dcterms:modified>
<dcterms:created>2015-07-17</dcterms:created>
<link>http://starttocontinue.podomatic.com</link>
<dc:creator>Start To Continue</dc:creator>
<itunes:duration>0</itunes:duration>
<itunes:explicit>yes</itunes:explicit>
<itunes:order>1</itunes:order>
...
</item>
I'm using a standard for each loop to set the easy elements like title etc.
foreach (SyndicationItem item in feed.Items)
{
string subject = item.Title.Text;
...
}
But don't know how to access the itunes ones, does anyone have an idea if this is possible or how to do it?
Try this
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Xml;
using System.Xml.Linq;
namespace ConsoleApplication37
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
string input =
"<item xmlns:dcterms=\"www.myspace.com\" xmlns:dc=\"www.myspace.com\" xmlns:itunes=\"www.myspace.com\">" +
"<title>Episode 41 - Brobdingnagian Lunches To Die For</title>" +
"<pubDate>Fri, 17 Jul 2015 13:00:00 GMT</pubDate>" +
"<dcterms:modified>2015-07-17</dcterms:modified>" +
"<dcterms:created>2015-07-17</dcterms:created>" +
"<link>http://starttocontinue.podomatic.com</link>" +
"<dc:creator>Start To Continue</dc:creator>" +
"<itunes:duration>0</itunes:duration>" +
"<itunes:explicit>yes</itunes:explicit>" +
"<itunes:order>1</itunes:order>" +
"</item>";
XDocument doc = XDocument.Parse(input);
var results = doc.Descendants("item").Select(x => new
{
title = x.Element("title").Value,
pubDate = x.Element("pubDate").Value,
modified = x.Elements().Where(y => y.Name.LocalName == "modified").FirstOrDefault().Value,
created = x.Elements().Where(y => y.Name.LocalName == "created").FirstOrDefault().Value,
link = x.Element("link").Value,
creator = x.Elements().Where(y => y.Name.LocalName == "creator").FirstOrDefault().Value,
duration = x.Elements().Where(y => y.Name.LocalName == "duration").FirstOrDefault().Value,
explicit1 = x.Elements().Where(y => y.Name.LocalName == "explicit").FirstOrDefault().Value,
order = x.Elements().Where(y => y.Name.LocalName == "order").FirstOrDefault().Value,
}).ToList();
}
}
}
This ended up working.
XElement ele = extension.GetObject<XElement>();
if (ele.ToString().StartsWith("<itunes:image"))
{
int index = ele.ToString().IndexOf("\" xmlns:itunes");
if (index > 0)
image = ele.ToString().Substring(0, index).Replace("<itunes:image href=\"", "");
}
I was looking for something similar for the <itunes:episode>
tag. I know this is a rather old question, but I thought I'd add my method for someone else who might end up here. I got it working with:
var episode = item.Element("{http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd}episode").Value;
So for one of the samples I'd use:
var duration= item.Element("{http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd}duration").Value;
You could use ElementExtensions
property to get additional elements:
const string ns = "http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd";
var duration = item.ElementExtensions.ReadElementExtensions<XElement>("duration", ns)
.Select(e => e.Value).First();
