When a bookmarked URL is an HTML page whose feed is not at a common path (/feed, /rss.xml etc.), fetchAndParseFeed would throw and store no items in microsub_items. Sites like econsoc.mpifg.de or signal.org post pages advertise their feed via a standard <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" href="..."> element, which discoverFeeds() already parses but was never called from the fetch/parse pipeline. Now, before probing common paths, fetchAndParseFeed calls discoverFeeds() on the fetched HTML and uses any typed RSS/Atom/JSONFeed link it finds. Common-path probing remains as the final fallback.

|
|
* Patch: improve feed discovery in fetchAndParseFeed
|
|
*
|
|
* Problem: when a bookmarked URL is an HTML page (article, site root, etc.),
|
|
* fetchAndParseFeed only tries a fixed list of common paths (/feed, /rss.xml …).
|
|
* This misses sites whose feed URL is advertised via a
|
|
* <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" href="…">
|
|
* tag in the page <head>. For example, econsoc.mpifg.de, signal.org blog
|
|
* pages, and Substack article URLs all work through <link> discovery but
|
|
* fail the common-path probe.
|
|
*
|
|
* Solution: before falling back to tryCommonFeedPaths, call discoverFeeds()
|
|
* (which already parses <link rel="alternate"> tags) on the fetched HTML
|
|
* content. If it finds a typed RSS/Atom/JSONFeed link, use that URL.
|
|
* Only if link-based discovery also fails do we probe common paths.
