Description Jerome Quelin 2013-03-14 10:44:24 CET

Google Reader is going to shut down soon.
As such, it might be interesting to provide a way for mageia users to host their own google-reader like.

Possible candidates (very quick search):
- zfeeder: http://zvonnews.sourceforge.net/zfeeder.php
- feeds on feeds: http://feedonfeeds.com/
- rsslounge: http://code.google.com/p/rsslounge/
- rnews: http://rnews.sourceforge.net/index.php
- tiny tiny rss: http://tt-rss.org/index.html

I'm sure there may be others...

Adding Guillaume in cc:, since all of those apps are web apps requiring:
- either a shared/exclusive httpd instance,
- a mysql db

Guillaume, do you know those apps?
Which one(s) seem the best to you on a sysadmin perspective?

Goal would be to have a very simple way of working: install the rpm, just point a browser to a given url and it works (tm).

It seems that fedora is packaging tt-rss (tiny tiny rss)

Comment 3 Jerome Quelin 2013-03-20 13:40:34 CET

some softs that do not require a database (or support sqlite):
    kriss feed
    Aeres
    selfoss
    Gregarius
    Miniflux

however, I did not manage to make them work... Any help welcome for this topic which I really don't know.

Comment 4 Jerome Quelin 2013-03-21 15:45:11 CET

ok, some more investigation...
Aeres is really slow.
gregarius is no more developed since 2008 it appears.

kriss feed is working fine. It needs php-mbstring.
It's only a single file index.php to be placed on the webserver.

dunno what's the best way to package it, though.

Tiny Tiny RSS seems pretty decent so long.

Comment 6 Jerome Quelin 2013-03-21 15:57:05 CET

but tt-rss requries a mysql database. that's just insane imo...

Comment 7 Sander Lepik 2013-03-21 16:10:13 CET

You can use PostgreSQL if you like it more :)

Comment 8 Guillaume Rousse 2013-03-22 14:36:50 CET

I just submitted miniflux, which seems to works perfectly with an sqlite database.
