Rivista is a syndication project which makes journals and publications that are
hosted on XMPP PubSub nodes, available from HTTP to both, XML news readers and
even HTML browsers.
This means that instead of hosting a journal or publication site in the old fashion (i.e. HTML documents hosted on an HTTP server), one only has to have an HTTP server to operate Rivista, and the rest of the content is delivered from an XMPP server (i.e. PubSub nodes).

The project also showcases the non-necessity of HTML, as it automatically generates valid XHTML pages by HTML browsers (client-side) from XSLT stylesheets.

Because Rivista reads XMPP PubSub nodes, it is possible to view a complete set of node items, and even a single node item, which means, that a considered and carefully earnest use of Rivista would save bandwidth and system overhead, which includes CPU, I/O and RAM usage.

### Start
Execute Rivista with one of the following commands:
```shell
$ python -m uvicorn main:app --reload
$ python -m uvicorn pubsub_to_atom:app --reload
$ python -m uvicorn pubsub_to_atom:app --reload --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8000
$ uvicorn pubsub_to_atom:app --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8000
$ fastapi dev pubsub_to_atom.py
```
$ rivista
```
## Usage
It is possible to view a complete node and even a single item, which means, that it is possible to save bandwidth and it further means that a considered and carefully earnest use of this software would save system overhead, which includes CPU, I/O and RAM usage.
