Install via pip: #+BEGIN_SRC sh $ su -c "pip3 install gnusrss" #+END_SRC
Clone the repository: #+BEGIN_SRC sh $ 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" #+END_SRC
If on parabola: #+BEGIN_SRC sh $ su -c "pacman -S gnusrss" #+END_SRC
The program is (or should be) quite intuitive. Running the following, should show the basics:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh $ 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 #+END_SRC
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:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh $ gnusrss.py --create-db --create-config daemons #+END_SRC
Then it will ask several questions to create the first configuration file. It should look like this:
#+BEGIN_SRC text 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) #+END_SRC
The file is saved under the name 'daemons.ini'. It should look like this:
#+BEGIN_SRC text
[Feeds]
feed = https://daemons.cf/rss.xml
user = drymer@quitter.se
password = falsePassword
shorten
fallback_feed =
format
{title} - {link} by @ {author}
#+END_SRC
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:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh $ gnusrss.py -p daemons.ini $ gnusrss.py -P #+END_SRC
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:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh $ gnusrss.py -k otherFile.ini #+END_SRC
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:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh $ crontab -e # A file is open and gets the following * 12 * * * cd $rutaDEgnusrss && gnusrss.py -p daemons.ini #+END_SRC
So it runs once, every day at midday. If, however, it's used with 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..
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:
#+BEGIN_SRC text
[feeds]
feed = https://quitter.se/api/statuses/user_timeline/127168.atom
user = drymer@quitter.se
password = falsePassword
shorten
fallback_feed =
format
{summary}
#+END_SRC
The feed can be achieved by looking at the source code of the page of the account you want. For twitter2rss, you can host it or can use this web.

Instalar usando pip: #+BEGIN_SRC sh $ su -c "pip3 install gnusrss" #+END_SRC
Clonar el repositorio: #+BEGIN_SRC sh $ 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" #+END_SRC
Si se usa parabola: #+BEGIN_SRC sh $ su -c "pacman -S gnusrss" #+END_SRC
El programa es (o debería ser) bastante intuitivo. Ejecutando lo siguiente, deberia verse lo básico:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh $ 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 #+END_SRC
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:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh $ gnusrss.py --create-db --create-config daemons #+END_SRC
A continuación hará varias preguntas para configurar el primer archivo de configuración. Debería verse así:
#+BEGIN_SRC text 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) #+END_SRC
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:
#+BEGIN_SRC text
[feeds]
feed = https://daemons.cf/rss.xml
user = drymer@quitter.se
password = contraseñaFalsa
shorten
fallback_feed =
format
{title} - {link} by @{author}
insecure =
#+END_SRC
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:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh $ gnusrss.py -p daemons.ini $ gnusrss.py -P #+END_SRC
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:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh $ gnusrss.py -k otherFile.ini #+END_SRC
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:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh $ crontab -e # Se abrirá un archivo y se mete lo siguiente * 12 * * * cd $rutaDEgnusrss && gnusrss.py -p daemons.cf #+END_SRC
Así se ejecuta una vez al día, a las doce de la mañana. Si, en cambio, lo usasemos con 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.
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:
#+BEGIN_SRC text
[feeds]
feed = https://quitter.se/api/statuses/user_timeline/127168.atom
user = drymer@quitter.se
password = contraseñaFalsa
shorten
fallback_feed =
format
{summary}
#+END_SRC
El feed se puede conseguir mirando el código fuente de la página de la cuenta que se quiere. En el caso de twitter2rss, se puede hostear o se puede usar esta web. 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.
