goread

goread generates static HTML files showing previews of subscribed RSS feeds. Similar to rawdog and curn it can be used as a cronjob. Configuration happens through a simple YAML file containing categories and their subscriptions. It comes with a built in template that can be overwritten.

See the Screenshot.

Basic Usage

Create a YAML file with the following format:

golang:
  - https://blog.golang.org/feed.atom
  - https://campoy.cat/index.xml
  - https://medium.com/feed/@matryer

podcasts:
  - https://feeds.feedburner.com/SchrottcastTitusJonas
  - https://freakshow.fm/feed/m4a

By default, goread will look for a feeds.yml in the current directory and renders its HTML files there too. This can be changed by using the -in and -out flags. Note that -in expects a filename and -out a directory path.

$ goread -in ~/.goread.yml -out /var/www/html
$

Use a custom template

The -template flag can be used to replace the defaut template. The default template can be used as an starting point for a custom one.

$ goread -template template.html
$

Help

$ goread -help
