if the element name is not a string, empty or NULL.
printFeed( $useGenericContentType = false) : void
Print the actual RSS/ATOM file
Sets a Content-Type header and echoes the contents of the feed. Should only be used in situations where direct output is desired; if you need to pass a string around, use generateFeed() instead.
| $useGenericContentType |
if the useGenericContentType parameter is not boolean.
createNewItem() : \FeedWriter\Item
Create a new Item.
instance of Item class
addItem(\FeedWriter\Item $feedItem) : self
Add a FeedItem to the main class
| \FeedWriter\Item | $feedItem | instance of Item class |
if the given item version mismatches.
setDate( $date) : self
Set the date when the feed was lastly updated.
This adds the 'updated' element to the feed. The value of the date parameter can be either an instance of the DateTime class, an integer containing a UNIX timestamp or a string which is parseable by PHP's 'strtotime' function.

setAtomLink(string $href, string $rel = null, string $type = null, string $hreflang = null, string $title = null, integer $length = null) : self
Set custom 'link' channel elements.
In ATOM feeds, only one link with alternate relation and the same combination of type and hreflang values.

if this method is called and the feed is not of type RSS1.
if the given URL is invalid.
uuid(string $key = null, string $prefix = '') : string

The UUID is based on an MD5 hash. If no key is given, a unique ID as the input for the MD5 hash is generated.
| string | $key | optional key on which the UUID is generated |
| string | $prefix | an optional prefix |
the formatted UUID
getNamespacePrefixes() : array
Returns all used XML namespace prefixes in this instance.
This includes all channel elements and feed items. Unfortunately some namespace prefixes are not included, because they are hardcoded, e.g. rdf.
Array with namespace prefix as value.
makeNode(string $tagName, mixed $tagContent, array $attributes = null, boolean $omitEndTag = false) : string

sanitizeCDATA(string $text) : string
Sanitizes data which will be later on returned as CDATA in the feed.
A "]]>" respectively "<![CDATA" in the data would break the CDATA in the XML, so the brackets are converted to a HTML entity.
