Feed Articles
Accessing Articles, (*8)
$articles = $feed->articles();
This will give you an instance of Vinelab\Rss\ArticlesCollection which is
an extension of Illuminate\Support\Collection.
Each item of this collection is an instance of Vinelab\Rss\Article from which you can safely access any of the properties in the entry., (*9)
Article, (*10)
Is an object which properties are dynamically accessed such as $article->title., (*11)
Whichever fields exist in the feed's entry will be accessible as read-only
property, making Article an immutable object., (*12)
You may also call isset($article->someField) to check whether the field exists for a designated entry., (*13)
$article = $articles->first();
echo $article->title; // ABBA piano seen raising money, money, money at auction
echo $article->whatever; // null
Or iterate through the articles, (*14)
foreach ($feed->articles() as $article) {
$title = $article->title;
}
You may also access the article's original XML format with, (*15)
$article->xml();
