# SpotTheStation RSS Reader
Converts a SpotTheStation RSS file to a javascript object.
Data can be obtained from NASA's [Spot The Station](http://spotthestation.nasa.gov/home.cfm).
Simply lookup a city and then download the RSS file linked from that page:
http://spotthestation.nasa.gov/sightings/view.cfm?country=Germany®ion=None&city=Berlin
## Example
```Javascript
var request = require("request");
var IssReader = require('spotthestation-rss-reader');
var issReader = new IssReader();
var RSS_URI = 'http://spotthestation.nasa.gov/sightings/indexrss.cfm?'
+ 'country=Germany®ion=None&city=Berlin';
request(RSS_URI, function(error, response, body) {
if (!error && response.statusCode == 200)
issReader.parseRSS(body, function(err, data) {
console.log(data)
});
});
```
