This lil Ruby-OSA script will allow you to import your "Flagged Items" in NetNewsWire as Web Archive Items in Yojimbo. Thus allowing you to save RSS articles for off-line viewing/storage.



#!/usr/local/bin/ruby

['rubygems', 'rbosa'].each {|lib| require lib}

nnw = OSA.app('NetNewsWire')

yojimbo = OSA.app('Yojimbo')



nnw.subscriptions.find { |s| s if s.display_name == 'Flagged Items' }.headlines.each do |article|

  unless yojimbo.web_archive_items.map { |f| f.source_url }.include?(article.url)

    archived = yojimbo.make(OSA::Yojimbo::WebArchiveItem, 

                            article.url, 

                            :name => article.title)

    # Adjust this for slower/faster bandwidth connections (or your feeling lucky, punk)

    sleep(5)

    # Uncomment below to remove the flagged items upon successfully archiving

    # if archived.name == 'untitled' && archived.source_url.empty?

    #   puts "!!! #{article.title} does not look to be imported !!!"

    # else

    #   article.delete

    # end

  end

end
