4.8. Custom Feed and Entry Classes

Finally, you can extend the Zend_Feed classes if you'd like to provide your own format or niceties like automatic handling of elements that should go into a custom namespace.

Here is an example of a custom Atom entry class that handles its own myns: namespace entries. Note that it also makes the registerNamespace() call for you, so the end user doesn't need to worry about namespaces at all.

例 4.7. Extending the Atom Entry Class with Custom Namespaces

<?php

/**
 * The custom entry class automatically knows the feed URI (optional) and
 * can automatically add extra namespaces.
 */
class MyEntry extends Zend_Feed_EntryAtom
{

    public function __construct($uri = 'http://www.example.com/myfeed/',
                                $xml = null)
    {
        parent::__construct($uri, $xml);

        Zend_Feed::registerNamespace('myns', 'http://www.example.com/myns/1.0');
    }

    public function __get($var)
    {
        switch ($var) {
            case 'myUpdated':
                // Translate myUpdated to myns:updated.
                return parent::__get('myns:updated');

            default:
                return parent::__get($var);
            }
    }

    public function __set($var, $value)
    {
        switch ($var) {
            case 'myUpdated':
                // Translate myUpdated to myns:updated.
                parent::__set('myns:updated', $value);
                break;

            default:
                parent::__set($var, $value);
        }
    }

}

?>   

Then to use this class, you'd just instantiate it directly and set the myUpdated property:

<?php

$entry = new MyEntry();
$entry->myUpdated = '2005-04-19T15:30';

?>
