@cindex Atom
Some web sites provide an Atom Syndication Format feed. Atom is a web
feed format similar in function to RDF Site Summary (@pxref{RSS}).
The @code{nnatom} back end allows you to add HTTP or local Atom feeds as
Gnus servers, by adding them to @code{gnus-secondary-select-methods} or
as foreign servers by pressing "B" in the @file{*Group*} buffer, for
example (@pxref{Finding the News}). The address of each server is its
feed's location (though the address shouldn't be prefixed with <http://> or
<https://>) and each server contains a single group which holds the
feed's entries.
Features of @code{nnatom} include:
@itemize @bullet
@item
Server data is saved per-server in the @file{atom} sub-directory of
@file{gnus-directory}.
@item
An article part is generated for both the summary and the content for
each entry in the feed. Content of all MIME types should be displayed
correctly through Gnus (as long as they are supported and the feed
specifies a MIME type).
@item
Article modification and publish dates are tracked, and articles are
updated if changed.

@node Web Feed Back Ends
@subsubsection Web Feed Back Ends
If you want to write a back end for a new type of web feed (RSS,
Atom), or some other type of feed, an ``abstract'' back end
(@code{nnfeed}) exists to enable the creation of such back ends with
minimal knowledge of Gnus.
@code{nnfeed} defines a generic parser, which uses functions stored in
server variables to parse information from a feed (@code{nnfeed}
itself doesn't actually define any such functions though).
The data parsed from the feed is stored in server variables (and
stored per-feed in a sub-directory of @option{gnus-directory} whose name
corresponds to the name of the back end).
A Gnus back end interface is also defined, which uses the data parsed
from the feed.
Therefore, a new back end only needs to inherit from @code{nnfeed},
define (fairly) generic parsing functions for the feed type and setup
the required server variables.
@code{nnfeed} was originally created to support Atom Syndication
Format feeds (@pxref{Atom}), but is very generic (as of writing this,
no standard web feed exists which can meaningfully use all the
features supported): it supports multiple groups contained in a single
feed, it allows for situations when the entire feed can't (or
shouldn't) be read ahead of time and it allows for very advanced
customization of the actual printing of articles from parsed data
(while providing a reasonably powerful default method).
Further implementation details are available in the documentation
strings of the various @code{nnfeed-*} server variables and
the commentary and other comments of @file{nnfeed.el}.
