Django Feed Me

Build Status

Django Feed Me is a replacement for Google Reader. It keeps track of your feeds, fetches the RSS feeds and parses them in an easy to read interface. This is currently in development. The app works as POC using the Django Admin. A seperate interface for adding feeds is coming down in the pipeline.

Installation

To install FeedMe simply:

pip install django-feedme

Add feedme to your installed apps. Add route a url to feedme.urls

Make sure to syncdb or migrate the app:

python manage.py syncdb
python manage.py migrate

If you want to use Celery for fetching (Recommended) then add:

FEED_UPDATE_CELERY = True

to your settings file. Make sure you've installed and configured Celery properly. The syntax used should be good for both Celery 2 and 3.

This app bundles static and works out of the box with django static files. If you aren't collecting static you'll need to copy the static directory to where ever you serve static from.

Celery Beat

To make use of the Celery beat schedule to automatically update feeds at given intervals, open your settings file and enter something like the following:

import datetime


CELERYBEAT_SCHEDULE = {
    "feed-updates": {
        "task": "update_all_feeds",
        "schedule": datetime.timedelta(hours=1),
        },
    }

More documentation for Celery can be found at the CeleryProject.
