Some facebook tracking query parameter was getting inside the <link>
and <guid> tags. This commit strips them off so that a feed reader
won't think there are always new posts.
https://cad-comic.com/ now provides feeds at
- https://cad-comic.com/feed (rss)
- https://cad-comic.com/feed/atom (atom)
Thus multiple alternatives are available to choose from, making this
bridge obsolete:
- FilterBridge (using one of the feeds above)
- WordPressBridge (on the main site)
- One of the two available feeds

This commit fixes an issue caused by self closing tags not supported
by simplehtmldom (<source>).
Adds a monkey patch to extend simplehtmldom with the ability to detect
that particular tag. Most of the code added is copied directly from
simplehtmldom (see vendor/simplehtmldom) with adjustments to account
for RSS-Bridge formatting.

Notice: The tag itself is valid according to Mozilla:
The HTML <picture> element serves as a container for zero or more
<source> elements and one <img> element to provide versions of an
image for different display device scenarios. The browser will
consider each of the child <source> elements and select one
corresponding to the best match found; if no matches are found
among the <source> elements, the file specified by the <img>
element's src attribute is selected. The selected image is then
presented in the space occupied by the <img> element.

* use defaultLinkTo
* remove duplicate video links
* remove line ending before "Reposted" label
* return newline before reposted string
* remove comments
* use video links that won't require login
* set title if video has no title
Adds a new option '&title_from_content=on' to build the title for feed
items from the feeds content. The title is generated from the first
whitespace after 50 characters of the content or the entire content if
the total size is lower than 50 characters.

This commit fixes a few things related to static::URI
1) Remove trailing slash from the URI to simplify using 'defaultLinkTo'
2) Use static::URI instead of self::URI for consistency
3) Remove custom implementation of 'defaultLinkTo'
Images are collected for each post and added to enclosures. Images or
animtions from lh3.googleusercontent.com are specifically handled in
order to return the animated version of the gif and the original sized
image (this is normally taken care of by JS in the browser).
Adds a new bridge for https://gist.github.com
The bridge generates feeds for comments on a particular gist based on
the gist ID or full URI. For better readability the general behavior
of code sections is manually restored with the original CSS styles
from GitHub.
New bridge for Skimfeed: https://skimfeed.com
Generates feeds for all features of Skimfeed:
- News (the ones displayed on the front page)
- Hot topics ("What's Hot" section on the front page)
- Tech news (preconfigured feeds in the menu bar)
- Custom feeds (using the configuration system of Skimfeed), see
https://skimfeed.com/custom.php
The number of items returned by the bridge can be limited for all
categories ('&limit=...'). This parameter is optional, all categories
are unlimited by default!
Authors are added with HTML anchors in order to allow quick navigation
to source channels.
The bridge ships with developer tools to auto-generate lists in the
future (especially useful for 'Tech news'!)

Following changes in the JSON data and selecting images for the
content (320x240 or bigger) and enclosure (largest version). All of
the data is now extracted from the JSON data instead of parsing the
DOM.

Removing this bridge for two reasons:
1) The service moved from www.cpasbien.cm to www.torrents9.blue,
changing the layout in the process (incompatible).
2) The new site is permanently protected by Cloudflare IUAM, making
it inaccessible by RSS-Bridge.
While it would certainly be possible to rewrite the bridge to work
with the new layout, the site is still inaccessible.

This commit adds a new bridge for http://www.instructables.com. This bridge
currently supports fetching content by category (all categories available 200+),
using available filters (featured, recent, popular, views, contest winners).
Adds duration limits (minimum duration, maximum duration) for all
modes (user/id/playlist/search). Duration limits are optional, so
existing subscriptions don't break.
The limits are specified by two separate parameters, each of which
is optional:
- `&duration_min=` (minimum duration in minutes, default: -1)
- `&duration_max=` (maximum duration in minutes, default: INF)
If duration limits are specified in either user, id or playlist mode,
the bridge defaults to fetching data from HTML intead of XML feeds,
which requires more bandwidth and takes longer, because each video is
loaded individually!

The previous context is now labeled 'User', while the new context is
labeled 'Group'. The existing code was not changed, instead new group*
functions were implemented to handle groups.
The general principle of capturing groups is the same as done for users
with adjustments to account for different HTML structures.
Captcha responses are currently not supported for groups! There doesn't
seem to be a way to trigger them consistently, which makes it hard to
handle them properly.
Features of the group context:
- The feed title is based on the group name
- The group URI used for capturing is returned for the feed URI
- Author names and timestamps are reproduced from the source
- Post titles are reproduced from the source if they exist, otherwise
the title is build manually from the author name and the content
- Original contents are included with the feed
- All images are attached as enclosures as well
Closes #
Supports latest news and profiling a given ETF in Englisch, German
or Italian language. Cover images are attached as enclosures and not
as part of the content.
News:
Optionally loads the full article for each news item. Some articles
may include scripts to provide interactive graphs. These scripts are
removed as they would be rendered as pure text and a message is shown
instead: "[Content removed! Visit site to see full contents!]"
Profile:
Optionally includes the ETF strategy and description.
isoHunt has discontinued services due to legal reasons and is now
accessible via https://isohunts.to
While it is certainly possible to rewrite the bridge to fetch some
information from the new site, it wouldn't be able to provide as
much functionality as before. This is due to isoHunt having removed
all searching and filtering options, only providing static HTML pages
for general categories (anime, movies, etc...). Those pages, however,
are heavily broken.
Unless someone is interested in monitoring the general categories
the effort of upgrading the bridge to the new site is not worth taking
time for.
Users of isoHunt are asked to make use of their client application,
as they don't provide online services anymore (it's now in the darknet)
Here is the statement from isoHunt:
"Due to hard regulations and security issues for bittorrent users, we
have moved into a more secure and even faster district of the internet!
[...]
Torrent Downloads have a high risk of getting legal problems. That is
why we do not offer torrentfiles any more. [...]"

Allows users to paste facebook links as user name. The link must contain
the correct host (www.facebook.com) and a valid path (/user-name/...).
The first part of the path is used for the user name. Errors are returned
in case something went wrong.

Reviews are provided the same way as summary posts and therefore returned
as separate feed item for each review. This commit adds a new option
'&skip_reviews=on' to skip reviews entirely.
