        use Dancer 'syntax';
        use Dancer::Plugin::XML::RSS;

        # parse rss file and output
        get '/show_news' => {
          rss->parsefile( settings( 'news_feed' ) );

          # grab entries for template
          my @stories;
          my $display_max = settings('news_feed_display') || 5;

          for ( my $i = 0; $i <= $display_max; $i++ ) {
            next unless exists rss->{items}->[$i] 
              and ref rss->{items};

            push @stories, $item;
          }

          template 'news', { stories => \@stories };
        };

        get '/our_feed' => {
            rss->channel( 
                title => 'My Special Site',
                link  => 'mysite.example.org',
                description => 'A generic example for docs',
            );

            );

DESCRIPTION
    Provides a simple way to parse RSS files by using "XML::RSS". It will
    hold onto currently parsed feed or keyword 'rss' will return object
    instance for application use.

    Using the 'rss_output' command it will first create correct content type
    and then serialize object into RSS XML for use in route.

CONFIGURATION
    XML:RSS configuration parameters will be taken from your "Dancer"
    application config file. They should be specified as:

        plugins:
           'XML::RSS':
              output:  '0.9'  # output as rss v0.9

    See "XML::RSS" for more detail on configuration options.

SUBROUTINES/METHODS
  rss('new')
    Creates and returns XML::RSS object. It will be setup with any XML::RSS
    options from configuration file.

    After first call to rss existing XML::RSS object will be called to force
    a new object pass 'new' to "rss"

    'new' - optional string to force creation of new rss object

  rss_output
    Converts XML::RSS object into xml with correct content type and body.
    Use for returning inside of route.
