Tumblr Image plugin

I was disappointed that I couldn't use a Tumblr RSS feed for Serviio and I couldn't find a plugin, so I tried making my own.

I'm not a big fan of Groovy, but I bumbled my way around until I got something working.

Attached is my attempt at a plugin, feel free to try it out, but don't blame me if it blows up!

Tumblr doesn't use RSS in the expected way, so you need to provide the URL of the Tumblr itself, not it's RSS feed (so http://staff.tumblr.com not http://staff.tumblr.com/rss, for example).
Also, the source type should be set to Web Resource.

Be warned, if you set number of feed items to unlimited it will attempt to grab all images in a blog, this could take some time.
