Actstream

Activity Stream aggregates your web activity from external services (RSS/Atom feeds, social networks, and any service you wire up) into native Drupal content entities.

Each incoming item becomes an actstream_item entity and is displayed as an activity statement of the form Actor VERB Object.

Unlike the original activitystream module which stored items as nodes, this module uses Drupal's entity API directly, giving you fine-grained access control, entity queries, and Views integration out of the box.

Sub-modules

Content sources — enable the ones you need:

• actstream_feed — RSS/Atom ingestion via SimplePie
