Add BibBot as an additional reading view #726
Comments
I am not familiar with this area: German public library card. I prefer to provide an ability for developer: support customized mobilizer, this also can solve another issue(#724). 3rd party developer develop a customized mobilizer, which implement bitbot, and you subscribe a related news media, then you can set this feed's mobilizer and get the full article content. |
I'm sorry, I'll try to explain it more clearly: On most of the major German news websites (like www.zeit.de, www.spiegel.de, www.sueddeutsche.de) you have to pay a subscription for full access to their content. However, when you are a member of a local public library, you get access to the articles for free. The browser extension BibBot makes this more seamless: When a user goes to the website of one of the supported news outlets and wants to read an article that's behind a pay wall, the browser extension fetches the article from the public library. I'd love to see the functionality of the BibBot extension integrated into FeedMe: Users add an RSS feed for the German news sites. When the user wants to read a particular article from the rss feed, the user can press can press a button and the BibBot code goes out to get the article from the library for free. I'm aware that this use case is limited to German speaking users, but it might be a nice addition to FeedMe nonetheless. |
I would also be happy if the browser extension BibBot could be used in FeedMe. |
The browser extension BitBot allows users with a public library card access to German news media that is behind a pay wall. The code is available on Github. That would be an awesome addition to FeedMe for German speaking users.
