RSS-Bridge

Consume sites through your RSS reader.

Supported websites are scraped and turned into an RSS/Atom feed each time a HTTP request hits the server.

Usage

Executing the program will start a web server on port 3000. Feeds can be crawled and created by calling their endpoint. Available endpoints can be seen at example.

Those files are plain text files describing the HTTP request to send. Take a look, it's really straight forward to understand.

Or run them directly in the terminal using Hurl. Example:

hurl --variable base_url=http://localhost:3000 ./example/store.shopware.com-plugin-changelog.hurl

Setup

Requirements: go,make, docker (optional)

Clone the project:

git clone https://github.com/dallyger/rssbridge
cd rssbridge

Compile binaries and run it:

make build && bin/rssbridge

Or use Docker:

make do-build do-run

Tested on Linux. Windows is not supported. Use docker or WSL or something.

Privacy concerns

The originating IP addresses and host header are forwarded to the scraped site.

This is by design as the service relies on those third-party sites for the content. Therefore, it is only fair to be nice and forward as much information as possible.

If a consumer spams a site through this, they may just block the originating IPs instead of the whole bridge service.
