RSS
A simple, opinionated, RSS feed aggregator.
Edit the feeds.txt file.
Feed Configuration
Feed configuration is handled by a plaintext file on the host system.
By default, using our docker image, this configuration would be located in a feeds.txt
file within the path you mounted to /app/storage
.
The format of this file can be seen below:
https://feed.url.com/feed.xml feed-name #tag-a #tag-b
https://example.com/feed.xml Example #updates #news
# Lines starting with a hash are considered comments.
# Empty lines are fine and will be ignored.
# Underscores in names will be converted to spaces.
https://example.com/feed-b.xml News_Site #news
# Feed color can be set using square brackets after the name.
# The color must be a CSS-compatible color value.
https://example.com/feed-c.xml Blue_News[#0078b9] #news #blue

- Custom feed names and colors.
- Feed-based tags for categorization.
- 3 different post layout modes (card, list, compact).
- Fetching of page open-graph images.
- Feeds managed via a single plaintext file.
- System-based dark/light theme.
- Post title/description search.
- Ready-to-use docker image.
- Mobile screen compatible.
- Built-in support to prune old post data.
Limitations
The below possibly expected features are missing from this application. This is not a list of planned features. Please see the Low Maintenance Project section below for more info.
- No import of full post/article content.
- No feed management via the UI.
- No user system or user management system.
- No authentication or authorization built-in.
- No customization, extension or plugin system.
- No organisation upon simple feed-level tagging.
- Error handling is limited and will likely not alert clearly upon issue.
Upon the above, it's quite likely you'll come across issues. This project was created to meet a personal need while learning some new technologies. Much of the logic is custom written instead of using battle-tested libraries.
