My focus has shifted to RSS Proxy, which does not depend on Feedly so is not subject to its API limits. This app is functional, however, so feel free to adapt it for your use.
This app allows you retrieve the contents of an RSS feed via the Feedly Cloud API, using JavaScript on your web site.
The Feedly Cloud API is not directly accessible via JavaScript, since it does not allow cross-origin requests. This app provides a proxy to the Feedly API you can directly access through JavaScript.

$.ajax(
{url: "https://DOMAIN_FOR_THIS_APP/v3/streams/contents?url=http://www.nytimes.com/services/xml/rss/nyt/HomePage.xml&count=8"})
.done(function(data) {
alert("Found " + data.items.length + " items");
});
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
url |
The URL of the RSS feed. Alternatively, you can specify a stream_id as defined in Feedly's API reference. Either the url or stream_id is required. |
count |
The number of entries to retrieve from the feed. Default is DEFAULT_COUNT or 10. Optional. |
key |
Set a key that will be required to make a request to this app. This is not a Feedly API key and not passed to Feedly. Required if the API_KEY configuration variable exists. |
This returns Feedly stream contents in JSON format, containing an items
array with Feedly entries.
The app uses these configruation variables, though none are required. If you use the Deploy to Heroku button below, you'll be prompted for these.

The Feedly Cloud API can do a lot, but this app is limited to retrieving a specific RSS feed. Feel free to submit requests under Issues, and I'll do what I can!
