Introduction
YumYum lets you import data in common formats, like RSS & JSON and save them as Entries or Taxonomy Terms.
How it works
YumYum has a concept of feeds, each feed has it's own source (a JSON, RSS, XML feed) and has a destination, whether that be entries in a collection or terms in a taxonomy.
Whenever a feed is run, it goes through three steps:
-
It'll use a 'source parser' to get the items from the feed and return it in such a way everything else can understand.
-
Then, the feed items will pass through a 'transformer', this decides how to map the data from your feed item into your fields.
-
After the data has been transformed, it will finally be saved as an entry or taxonomy term.
