IRIS RSS

IRIS RSS Namespaces

Documentation for the iris: elements used by the IRIS RSS feeds.

The IRIS RSS feeds extend RSS 2.0 with elements in an iris: namespace. Each feed declares the namespace it uses in its <rss> element, for example:

<rss version="2.0" xmlns:iris="https://rss.iris.a2d.tv/ns/distribution/1.0/" …>

That URI resolves to the reference page for the namespace. Each page lists the feed's endpoints, its pagination and update semantics, and every element it emits, and links a machine-readable schema.xsd alongside.
