<h3><a href="{%}"{*}class="">{%}</a></h3>
with
Item link template = {%1} and
Item Title template = {%2}
feed43's free feed is limited to 20 items, so for all the older links, I would need something else. Found mkfeed, which uses the same syntax as feed43. So I just needed to install mkfeed and slightly tweak the provided example to create an RSS file locally -
URL="https://www.thehindu.com/topic/The_Hindu_Young_World/"
wget -q -O - "$URL" | mkfeed \
--pattern-item '<h3><a href="{%}"{*}class="">{%}</a>' \
--feed-title 'YW Archive1' \
--feed-link "$URL" \
--feed-desc 'Older Young World articles' \
--item-title '{%2}' \
--item-link '{%1}' \
--item-desc '{%2}' > yw1.rss
Calibre didn't seem to be able to fetch local files as RSS feeds when I gave the local path as /local/path/to/yw1.rss as the feed url. So, ran a simple webserver using python as described here, but changing the port to the less privileged 8000, with
import os
from http.server import HTTPServer, CGIHTTPRequestHandler
# Make sure the server is created at current directory
os.chdir('.')
# Create server object listening the port 8000
server_object = HTTPServer(server_address=('', 8000), RequestHandlerClass=CGIHTTPRequestHandler)
# Start the web server
server_object.serve_forever()
Then it was just a matter of pointing a new recipe in calibre to http://localhost:8000/yw1.rss and calibre did the rest. This might be an easier set of steps to do compared with my earlier manual method using HtmlAsText.
