Show HN: Sitemap2Feed – Convert an online sitemap to Atom, RSS and JSON feeds

It sounds like a good idea to make it easy for more sites to have an RSS feed.

Here is the code. It's pretty impressive how simple it is. It uses a library to read in the sitemap and loop through each link, and map the content and output a feed entry.

I little documentation would be great. What does it do and how does it work?

Would this run on a server and fetch the sitemap? Or could this be implemented into an RSS reader?

This is handy, but the XML URL needs to be definable also maybe output location.

Something like:

  go run main.go -sitemap=https://example.com/sitemap.xml -output=~/some/folder

Also I'd print out the file paths of the newly created files as they get saved for better user feedback.

Would be good if you add installing/running instructions and maybe binary relase...

This is a really great idea - wish I'd thought of it!

This tool is exactly what I was looking for！
