RSS Box

This app uses the API of other websites and gives you an RSS feed in return. Quick and simple.

List of public RSS Box instances: https://github.com/stefansundin/rssbox/discussions/64

To open vlc:// links, see vlc-protocol.

Roll your own

To deploy to Elastic Beanstalk, see .ebextensions/README.md.

To deploy to Kubernetes, see kubernetes/README.md.

A Docker image is available on Docker Hub and Amazon ECR.

Note: Redis is an optional dependency! It is only used for the URL resolution feature.

Configuration

You need to get API keys for the respective services and populate the environment variables, e.g. by using an .env file.

A couple of services do not have official APIs, or do not require API keys, so they will work without any keys.

These services do not require API keys: Instagram, Mixcloud, Speedrun, Dailymotion.

YouTube

Go to the Google Developer Console, create a project and a server key. Copy the server key. Enable "YouTube Data API v3" in the project.

Vimeo

Go to the Vimeo developer website and create an app. Then create a personal access token.

Instagram

[!WARNING] The Instagram integration is not being maintained and may not work very well at all. You may be wasting your time.

Facebook

Facebook was supported in the past, but I have been unable to obtain API access since they locked it down in 2018. Maybe we can rebuild it some day, but using scraping techniques or something. Discuss here.

SoundCloud

Go to the SoundCloud developer website. You need to open a support ticket to create an app. Copy your client id and secret.

Twitch

Go to your Twitch settings and create an app. Copy your client id.

To download Twitch videos, you also need to configure a separate client id.

Imgur

Go to the Imgur settings and create an app. Copy your client id.
