Please add a index.d.ts declaration file for typescript support.

When you specify required attributes:

const options = {
  required: {
    episodes: ["title", "pubDate"],
  },
};
const feedData = await podcastFeedParser.getPodcastFromURL(feedUrl, options);

... and the feed is missing some of the required fields:

Error: One or more required values are missing from feed.
    at Object.<anonymous> (/Users/arnab/code/projects/orcalabs/podcast-directory-management-tools/functions/node_modules/podcast-feed-parser/index.js:6:21)

It would be nice to get some more information from the error: such as which field specifically was missing.

Love the parser! For some reason it doesn't parse buzzsprout RSS feeds though.

Title says it all.
What about converting the JSON that is parsed FROM the RSS
Back into an RSS?
So that you can make RSS feeds for podcasts easily without needing to deal with the s***hole that it is.

Thanks!

Your package is awesome but i can't extract data from the itunes tags like <itunes:season>1</itunes:season>
<itunes:episode>2</itunes:episode> <itunes:image href="https://d3t3ozftmdmh3i.cloudfront.net/production/podcast_uploaded_episode400/19641917/19641917-1639934020034-37911cf7f913d.jpg"/> . Help me to fix this.. Thank you

Some podcasts have a pagination standard. Here's an example:

<atom:link href="https://changelog.com/podcast/feed" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/>
<atom:link href="https://changelog.com/podcast/feed" rel="first" type="application/rss+xml"/>
<atom:link href="https://changelog.com/podcast/feed?page=4" rel="last" type="application/rss+xml"/>
<atom:link href="https://changelog.com/podcast/feed?page=2" rel="next" type="application/rss+xml"/>

Page 2 looks like this:

<atom:link href="https://changelog.com/podcast/feed" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/>
<atom:link href="https://changelog.com/podcast/feed" rel="first" type="application/rss+xml"/>
<atom:link href="https://changelog.com/podcast/feed?page=4" rel="last" type="application/rss+xml"/>
<atom:link href="https://changelog.com/podcast/feed?page=1" rel="previous" type="application/rss+xml"/>
<atom:link href="https://changelog.com/podcast/feed?page=3" rel="next" type="application/rss+xml"/>

Last page:

<atom:link href="https://changelog.com/podcast/feed" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/>
<atom:link href="https://changelog.com/podcast/feed" rel="first" type="application/rss+xml"/>
<atom:link href="https://changelog.com/podcast/feed?page=4" rel="last" type="application/rss+xml"/>
<atom:link href="https://changelog.com/podcast/feed?page=3" rel="previous" type="application/rss+xml"/>

This particular podcast is actually not quite correct (rel="self" should indicate the current page, this one just lists the first page all the time) but there is enough metadata to handle pagination correctly, i.e. by checking for the presence of a rel="next" on each page.

If Category is missing from podcast file, parsing fails

Since Atom:category is optional, it should work without

I want to specify enclosure.url as a required property for episodes. How can I do that? If I specify:

    const options = {
      required: {
        episodes: ["title", "pubDate", "enclosure.url"],
      },
    };

It fails with Error: One or more required values are missing from feed.

How can I specify nested attributes such as enclosure.url as required?
