Usage
=====

#. Configure the feeds sources in the Admin.
#. Run the management command::

python manage.py refresh_feeds

*The management command should run as a cron job.*
#. Using the template tag::

{% load feed_items %}
{% get_feed_items "news" 5 as items %}
{# Get the last 5 items from the feed "news" in the current language #}
{% for item in items %} {# do stuff ... #} {% endfor %}

the language as set in the request, with a fallback to the default language.

If settings.DEFAULT_LANGUAGE is not defined, English will be assumed.
