[RevolutBridge] Add new bridge

Add bridge for the Revolut blog https://blog.revolut.com/

LGTM. Travis complains about line 75, but I actually prefer the code as-is.

I believe that line 75 would actually be better if it was line-splited after variables, and not separating two strings.

[dominik-th]

I really disliked the way it looks, being split after the variables.

Now I am using the PHP Simple HTML DOM Parser to insert the variables into the string. What do you think about it?

[teromene]

Looks great to me ! LGTM !

What's the purpose of this bridge since there's already a feed available for this site ?

It even has the full post contents.

This PR has a couple months, I'm not sure this was advertised on the page on this was opened and merged.

I agree that removing this bridge would be acceptable.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, it doesn't look like the feed is linked on the page which makes it rather difficult to find. It probably makes sense to refactor the current bridge into a bridge that inherits from FeedExpander to pull from the feed that is available on the site.

Permit me to quote the README of rss-bridge :

RSS-Bridge is a PHP project capable of generating RSS and Atom feeds for websites that don't have one

The purpose of a bridge is to generate RSS feed when there's no other solution.
In this case a full RSS feed is provided, why re-inventing the wheel by adding a new bridge ?
I'm afraid if such a things is allowed, the bridges list will soon skyrocket.
I do understand that the RSS feed is not advertised on Revolut's webpage.
But any RSS tool will find it easily embeded in the page's code.

I took another look at the website. It seems their RSS button is broken. There is supposed to be an RSS button next to the Twitter button (search for 'a.rss-button'):

Is this just on my end?
If they fixed their button, the bridge wouldn't be necessary.

[PoGo606]

Even though, there's still an existing feed available.
It's not shown visualy but still parsable in the web page by any RSS tool or any human (as long as they are curious to look at the code of the page).

Why RSS Bridge whould help fix a layout issue ?

[dominik-th]

The rss icon on their page is white on white background and links to a non functional page

But indeed they have the correct link in the websites head section so in my opinion we can delete the bridge

Because it's awesome, even for little things like that 😁

Thanks for looking into it. Incidentally, their search bar is also broken (the search button appears in front of "Community" on my browser):

If you are a regular user, maybe send them a short message to point them in the right direction.
I'll remove the bridge with a remark in the release notes so people know what's up.

Thanks for your contribution 👍
