I'm working on a site that is to be aggregating podcasts & blogs and wanted to map <enclosure> tags from an external feed into usable content on my site that also then becomes <enclosure> tags on feeds constructed by the site. I've been using the RSS Remote Enclosure module for my own podcasts but for this new site it was inappropriate..

I wanted to: a) have it appear as a CCK field, and b) most importantly to utilize FeedAPI Mapper to process the <enclosure> tag

I've written a new module, cck_enclosure, which does the above. I probably borrowed a bit from the encl_remote module but most of the code came from a couple blog posts out there which discuss how to build CCK modules. The cck_enclosure module does everything encl_remote does plus CCK & FeedAPI.

Obviously there is overlapping functionality and I first want to discuss the potential for merging cck_enclosure and encl_remote. Otherwise I'll be trying to get CVS access to start a fresh project for this.

I don't have a URL for the module (yet) but it will be available soon. Needs some cleanup first before I check it into my personal repository.

Note alternative is doing something with emfield #211600: Integrate with RSS Remote Enclosure

I'd be happy if you'd join the project and add features. Please apply for CVS and co-maintainer access to encl_remote. Instructions are here: http://drupal.org/node/59

I approved reikiman's CVS application, and granted him access to this project CVS.

Hi, I've been a bit busy but want to get back to this.

I'm thinking to split this into two new issues because the feedAPI mapper part is orthogonal to the CCK field part.
