RSS-watcher

Simple rust app that periodically checks RSS feeds for new entries, and pushes those to Gotify.

Usage

This can be run using docker or locally, to run with docker you can

$ run -it --rm -e DB_HOST=<database host> -e DB_USER=<database user> \
      -e DB_PASS=<database password> -e DB_BASE=<database name> \
      --restart=unless-stopped jakobst1n/rss-watcher

To run locally you need to set all those environment variables, and then you can run it with

$ RUST_LOG=info cargo run

All feed have to be defined in the database, you should start the app and let it create the table(s) itself. Then you can add feeds like this

INSERT INTO `rss-watcher-feeds` (url, push_url, push_token)
     VALUES (<the url of the RSS/Atom feed>,
             <root url of gotify server e.g. https://push.example.com>,
             <token for gotify app>);

You can also specify what fields should be used in the title and message fields of the gotify notification by changing the title and message columns. By default they are set to {{title}} and {{summary}} respectively.

Also, if you set the env var FETCH_INTERVAL, it will change how often it will poll for new changes (in ms).

Todo

• Extract more RSS fields.
• Deal with multiple links.
