encoding problems about feedparser-promised HOT 7 CLOSED

Hi @adantl

Do you have an example?
Just the feed url with your code snippet would help

Thanks!

I just saw that you asked a question directly on feedparser repository. Hopefully the answer would soulve the problem.

Please, feel free to send a pull request if you like.

const options = {
uri: 'http://www.sport.es/es/rss/last_news/rss_msn.xml',
timeout: 3000
}
feedparser.parse(options).then( (items) => {
items.forEach( (item) => {
console.log(item.summary);
});
}).catch( (error) => {
console.log('error: ', error);
});

Here's my feed and code. I tried the feedparser solution but they use iconv-lite and that only change all � char for the same, not the right one.

Yeah, I looked at incov-lite as well.

const feedparser = require('feedparser-promised');
const iconv = require('iconv-lite');

const options = {
  uri: 'http://www.sport.es/es/rss/last_news/rss_msn.xml',
  timeout: 3000
}

feedparser.parse(options).then( (items) => {
  items.forEach( (item) => {
    const encodedSummary = iconv.decode(new Buffer(item.summary), 'iso-8859-1');
    console.log(encodedSummary);
  });
}).catch( (error) => {
  console.log('error: ', error);
});

I'll research a little bit more

from feedparser-promised.

That code for example, convert � to �. Maybe we have to use incov-lite inside feedparser module

Hi @adantl

Any luck with the encoding issue? Have you talked with feedparser contributors about use incov-lite inside of it?

from feedparser-promised.

Hey @adantl

Any updates on your investigations? I was wondering to close this issue since it seems is not an issue with feedparser-promised. If we find something that we could do or even update with the new version of node parser we could open it again, what do you think?

I'll close it but let me know if you think differently then I will be happy to open it again.

Cheers
