1.1.1 About
^^^^^^^^^^^
gnusrss parse feeds and post them to GNU Social. The idea of this program came from `spigot <https://github.com/nathans/spigot>`_, a program that posts feeds to the social network `pump.io <https://pump.io>`_ as does gnusrss but better, because it controls the possible flood. gnusrss does not have this option and it will be managed with the crontab (for now).
1.1.2 Features
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Multiple feed and GNU Social accounts support
- sqlite3 is used to store the feeds
- Can fetch RSS files or url indistinctly
- Twitter image upload support when used with `twitter2rss <http://daemons.cf/cgit/twitter2rss>`_
1.1.3 Requirements
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Need a version equal to or greater than python 3 and some libraries:
- `feedparser <//pypi.python.org/pypi/feedparser>`_ >= 5.0
- `requests <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/requests/2.11.1>`_ >= 2.11.1
1.1.4 Git repository
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It's in two places:
- `http://daemons.cf/cgit/gnusrss <http://daemons.cf/cgit/gnusrss>`_: the original repository
- `https://notabug.org/drymer/gnusrss/ <https://notabug.org/drymer/gnusrss/>`_: A mirror in which it can be put issues and feature requests
1.1.5 Install
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
As with any program that uses python, it should be used a virtual environment (virtualenv), but that is user selectable. It's possible to use one of the next installation methods:
Install via pip:
.. code-block:: sh
:number-lines: 0
$ su -c "pip3 install gnusrss"
Clone the repository:
.. code-block:: sh
:number-lines: 0
$ git clone git://daemons.cf/gnusrss
# OR ...
$ git clone https://notabug.org/drymer/gnusrss/
$ cd gnusrss
$ su -c "pip3 install -r requirements.txt"
$ su -c "python3 setup.py install"
If on parabola:
.. code-block:: sh
:number-lines: 0
$ su -c "pacman -S gnusrss"
1.1.6 Configuration
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The program is (or should be) quite intuitive. Running the following, should show the basics:
.. code-block:: sh
:number-lines: 0
$ gnusrss.py
usage: gnusrss [-h] [-c file_name] [-C] [-p config_file] [-P] [-k file_name]
Post feeds to GNU Social
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-c file_name, --create-config file_name
creates a config file
-C, --create-db creates the database
-p config_file, --post config_file
posts feeds
-P, --post-all posts all feeds
-k file_name, --populate-database file_name
fetch the RSS and save it in the database
In any case, if not clear, read the following.
For the first use, it must be created the database and the first configuration file. This can done using the same command, like this:
.. code-block:: sh
:number-lines: 0
$ gnusrss.py --create-db --create-config daemons
Then it will ask several questions to create the first configuration file. It should look like this:
.. code-block:: text
:number-lines: 0
Database created!
Hi! Now we'll create config file!
Please enter the feed's URL: https://daemons.cf/rss.xml
Please enter your username (user@server.com): drymer@quitter.se
Please enter your password: falsePassword
Do you need to shorten the URLs that you 'post? Please take in account
That You should only use it if your node only have 140 characters.
Answer with "yes" or just press enter if you do not want to use it:
Please enter your feed's fallbackurl. If you do not want or have one,
just press enter:
Now we're gona fetch the feed. Please wait ...
Done! The tags are:
tags
title_detail
link
authors
links
author_detail
published_parsed
title
summary
id
author
published
guidislink
summary_detail
The XML has-been parsed. Choose wich format you want:
Please put the tags inside the square brackets
Ex: {title} - {link} by @{author}: {title} - {link} by @{author}
Do you want to allow insecure connection to your GNU social server?
Answer with "yes" or just press enter if you don't want to use it:
Do you want to populate the database? (y) Or you prefer to post old items? (n)
The file is saved under the name 'daemons.ini'. It should look like this:
.. code-block:: text
:number-lines: 0
[Feeds]
feed = https://daemons.cf/rss.xml
user = drymer@quitter.se
password = falsePassword
shorten =
fallback_feed =
format = {title} - {link} by @ {author}
It can create all the configuration files you want.
When creating the above file, it put into the database all the feeds that had so far. Thus, when running **gnusrss** for the first time, it will not post nothing to GNU Social until the feed has new information.
To post feeds from a concrete config file or all execute, respectively, the following:
.. code-block:: sh
:number-lines: 0
$ gnusrss.py -p daemons.ini
$ gnusrss.py -P
If the config file is created manually and the user don't want to post all the feed's content, just use the --populate-database option to save them to the database:
.. code-block:: sh
:number-lines: 0
$ gnusrss.py -k otherFile.ini
1.1.7 Crontab
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The recommended way to execute **gnurss** is using the crontab. Each time it's run, a single item of the feed will be posted to prevent flood. Depending on the number of feeds that are published, you should choose a different runtime. For a blog that publishs once a day, it could be used the following:
.. code-block:: sh
:number-lines: 0
$ crontab -e
# A file is open and gets the following
* 12 * * * cd $rutaDEgnusrss && gnusrss.py -p daemons.ini
So it runs once, every day at midday. If, however, it's used with `twitter2rss <http://daemons.cf/cgit/twitter2rss/>`_, it could be recommended putting it to run every five minutes. It has to be remembered that is important to run in the directory where the database was created, because is where it will search it..
1.1.8 Use with twitter2rss and/or GNU Social
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It works like any feed, except for the field that is published. In both you have to choose ``{summary}``. An example configuration file is as follows:
.. code-block:: text
:number-lines: 0
[feeds]
feed = https://quitter.se/api/statuses/user_timeline/127168.atom
user = drymer@quitter.se
password = falsePassword
shorten =
fallback_feed =
format = {summary}
The feed can be achieved by looking at the source code of the page of the account you want. For `twitter2rss <http://daemons.cf/cgit/twitter2rss>`_, you can host it or can use this `web <http://daemons.cf/twitter2rss>`_.

1.2 Castellano
1.2.1 Acerca de ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
gnusrss parsea feeds y los postea en GNU Social. La idea de hacer este programa surgió de spigot <https://github.com/nathans/spigot>, un programa que postea feeds en la red social pump.io <https://pump.io> igual que hace gnusrss pero mejor, ya que controla el posible flood. gnusrss no tiene esta opción y se controlará con el propio crontab (de momento).
1.2.2 Features ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Soporta múltiples feeds y cuentas de GNU Social
sqlite3 es usado para guardar los feeds
Se puede usar tanto archivos RSS cómo url indistintamente
Soporta la súbida de imágenes de Twitter cuando es usado en conjunto con twitter2rss <http://daemons.cf/cgit/twitter2rss>_
1.2.3 Requisitos ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Necesita una versión de python igual o superior a la 3 y algunas librerias:
feedparser <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/feedparser>_ >= 5.0
requests <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/requests/2.11.1>_ >= 2.11.1
1.2.4 Repositorio git ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Está en dos sitios:
http://daemons.cf/cgit/gnusrss <http://daemons.cf/cgit/gnusrss>_: el repositorio original
https://notabug.org/drymer/gnusrss/ <https://notabug.org/drymer/gnusrss/>_: un mirror, en el que se pueden poner los problemas y sugerencias de mejoras
1.2.5 Instalación ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Cómo con cualquier programa con python, es recomendable usar un entorno virtual (virtualenv), pero eso queda a elección del usuario. Se puede escoger entre los siguientes metodos:
Instalar usando pip:
.. code-block:: sh :number-lines: 0
$ su -c "pip3 install gnusrss"
Clonar el repositorio:
.. code-block:: sh :number-lines: 0
$ git clone git://daemons.cf/gnusrss
# O ...
$ git clone https://notabug.org/drymer/gnusrss/
$ cd gnusrss
$ su -c "pip3 install -r requirements.txt"
$ su -c "python3 setup.py install"
Si se usa parabola:
.. code-block:: sh :number-lines: 0
$ su -c "pacman -S gnusrss"
1.2.6 Configuración ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
El programa es (o debería ser) bastante intuitivo. Ejecutando lo siguiente, deberia verse lo básico:
.. code-block:: sh :number-lines: 0
$ gnusrss.py
usage: gnusrss [-h] [-c file_name] [-C] [-p config_file] [-P] [-k file_name]
Post feeds to GNU Social
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-c file_name, --create-config file_name
creates a config file
-C, --create-db creates the database
-p config_file, --post config_file
posts feeds
-P, --post-all posts all feeds
-k file_name, --populate-database file_name
fetch the RSS and save it in the database
En cualquier caso, si no queda claro, leer lo siguiente.
Para el primer uso, la base de datos y el primer archivo de configuración deben ser creados. Podemos hacerlo usando la misma orden, tal que así:
.. code-block:: sh :number-lines: 0
$ gnusrss.py --create-db --create-config daemons
A continuación hará varias preguntas para configurar el primer archivo de configuración. Debería verse así:
.. code-block:: text :number-lines: 0
Database created!
Hi! Now we'll create de config file!
Please introduce the feed's url: https://daemons.cf/rss.xml
Please introduce your username (user@server.com): drymer@quitter.se
Please introduce your password: contraseñaFalsa
{1}Do you need to shorten the urls that you post? Please take in account
that you should only use it if your node only has 140 characters.
Answer with "yes" or just press enter if you don't want to use it:
{2}Please introduce your feed's fallbackurl. If you don't want or have one,
just press enter:
Now we're gona fetch the feed. Please wait...
Done! The tags are:
tags
title_detail
link
authors
links
author_detail
published_parsed
title
summary
id
author
published
guidislink
summary_detail
The XML has been parsed. Choose wich format you want:
{3}Please put the tags inside the square brackets
Ex: {title} - {link} by @{author}: {title} - {link} by @{author}
{4}Do you want to allow insecure connection to your GNU social server?
Answer with "yes" or just press enter if you don't want to use it:
{5}Do you want to populate the database? (y) Or you prefer to post old items? (n)
A continuación traduciré las lineas con los números entre corchetes. {1} Necesitas acortar las url que quieres postear? Por favor ten en cuenta que sólo deberia usarse si el servidor sólo tiene 140 carácteres. {2} Por favor introduce tu feed de emergencia. Si no tienes uno, solamente aprieta enter. {3} Por favor pon las etiquetas dentro de los corchetes. {4} Quieres permitir conexiones inseguras a tu servidor GNU social? Responde con "si" o simplemente apreta enter si no necesitas usarlo. {5} Quieres llenar la base de datos? (y) O prefieres publicar los artículos antiguos? (n)
Respecto al 3, hay que examinar el código fuente del RSS para saber cuales interesan. En general, el que hay de ejemplo será lo que se busque. En el caso 4, sólo es útil si el servidor usa un certificado auto-firmado.
El archivo se guardará con el nombre 'daemons.ini'. Después de todas estas preguntas, debería verse similar a esto:
.. code-block:: text :number-lines: 0
[feeds]
feed = https://daemons.cf/rss.xml
user = drymer@quitter.se
password = contraseñaFalsa
shorten =
fallback_feed =
format = {title} - {link} by @{author}
insecure =
Se pueden crear todos los archivos de configuración que se quieran. Al haber creado el archivo anterior, se han metido en la base de datos todos los feeds que habian hasta el momento. Por lo tanto, cuando se ejecuta gnusrss por primera vez, no posteará nada en GNU Social, a menos que el feed tenga nueva información. Para postear los feeds de un archivo o todos, ejecutar, respectivamente, lo siguiente:
.. code-block:: sh :number-lines: 0
$ gnusrss.py -p daemons.ini
$ gnusrss.py -P
Si el archivo de configuración ha sido creado manualmente y no se quiere postear el contenido del feed, sólo hay que ejecutar la opción --populate-database para guardar estos en la base de datos:
.. code-block:: sh :number-lines: 0
$ gnusrss.py -k otherFile.ini
1.2.7 Crontab ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
El modo recomendado de ejecución de gnusrss es usando el crontab. Cada vez que se ejecute posteará un sólo elemento del feed para evitar el flood. Según la cantidad de feeds que se publiquen, se deberia escoger un tiempo de ejecución distinto. Para un blog que publique una vez al día, con poner lo siguiente, deberia valer:
.. code-block:: sh :number-lines: 0
$ crontab -e
# Se abrirá un archivo y se mete lo siguiente
* 12 * * * cd $rutaDEgnusrss && gnusrss.py -p daemons.cf
Así se ejecuta una vez al día, a las doce de la mañana. Si, en cambio, lo usasemos con twitter2rss <http://daemons.cf/cgit/twitter2rss/>_, se recomienda poner que se ejecute cada cinco minutos. Hay que recordar que es importante que se ejecute en el directorio en el que se ha creado la base de datos, ya que es ahí dónde la buscará.
1.2.8 Uso con twitter2rss y/o GNU Social ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Funciona igual que con cualquier feed, exceptuando el campo que se publica. En ambos hay que escoger {summary}. Un ejemplo de archivo de configuración sería el siguiente:
.. code-block:: text :number-lines: 0
[feeds]
feed = https://quitter.se/api/statuses/user_timeline/127168.atom
user = drymer@quitter.se
password = contraseñaFalsa
shorten =
fallback_feed =
format = {summary}
El feed se puede conseguir mirando el código fuente de la página de la cuenta que se quiere. En el caso de twitter2rss <http://daemons.cf/cgit/twitter2rss>, se puede hostear o se puede usar esta web <http://daemons.cf/twitter2rss>. No es recomendable usarlo con ningún nodo que use 140 carácteres, ya que en los retweets se añade un símbolo, "♻", lo cual hará que un tweet de 140 carácteres no sea posteado.
