Feedbin is a web based RSS reader. It's an open-source Ruby on Rails software.\n\nFeedbin's main goal is not to be easily self-hostable, and it was quite hard getting all of the services to work. During the process of creating `feedbin-docker`, I made [a few contributions to the upstream project](https://github.com/feedbin/feedbin/commits?author=angristan) to make it self-hostable ready. Other have taken other approaches by forking it, but all the projects I found on GitHub were abandonned and weren't working anymore.\n\nI chose to run it in Docker because of all the services required to run Feedbin.\n\nHere is a breakdown of all the containers:\n\n* `web`: the puma rails app\n* `workers`: some of the sidekiq workers for background processing\n* `refresher`: sidekiq worker for refreshing feeds\n* `image`: sidekiq worker to find thumbnails\n* `extract`: nodejs service to extract article content from full web pages\n* `camo`: a node reverse proxy to prevent mixed content\n* `minio`: object storage for images, favicons, imports\n* `redis`: cache, store sidekiq queues and stats\n* `memcached`: cache\n* `postgresql`: database\n* `elasticsearch`: full text search\n* `caddy`: https-enabled reverse proxy\n\nAs you can see it's a lot. Technically, you can give up on a few of them without breaking Feedbin:\n\n* `image`: you won't have thumbnails, which is not that important depending on your appearance settings.\n* `camo`: your browser will make the requests directly to the websites. Less privacy and risk or mixed content.\n* `elasticsearch`: you won't have full text search\n\nYou can also replace `caddy` with another reverse proxy, but caddy is really handy.\n\n## Setup\n\nI recommend a server with **more than 2 GB of RAM**. Otherwise you will likely have OOM kills.\n\nClone the repo:\n\n```sh\ngit clone https://github.com/angristan/feedbin-docker.git\n```\n\n* Copy `.env.example` to `.env` and fill **ALL** the variables\n* Copy `docker-compose-example.yml` to `docker-compose.yml`. If you want to disable a service this is the place.\n* Copy `caddy/example.Caddyfile` to `caddy/Caddyfile` and update the configuration if you need.\n\nRun the database migrations:\n\n```sh\ndocker-compose run --rm feedbin-web rake db:setup\n```\n\nLaunch everything:\n\n```sh\ndocker-compose up -d\n```\n\nYou can check if everything is going well with `docker-compose logs -f` or `docker-compose ps`.\n\nNow go to `feedbin.domain.tld` and create a new account. You're set!\n\nYou can make yourself an admin to manage users and to view the Sidekiq web interface.\n\nTo do so, run:\n\n```sh\ndocker-compose exec feedbin-web rake feedbin:make_admin[youremail@domain.tld]\n```\n\nOnce you're done, you can prevent new users from registering by modifying Caddy config and uncommenting the `respond` directive for `/signup` and `/users` routes.\n","funding_links":[],"categories":["Dockerfile"],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fangristan%2Ffeedbin-docker","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fangristan%2Ffeedbin-docker","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fangristan%2Ffeedbin-docker/lists"}
