README

        
outreddit

=========

Are you an avid fan of /r/AskHistorians subreddit? Do you use pocket

service? Do you read pocket articles on a Kobo reader? Do you have a

server/vps? This tiny HTTP server will convert reddit threads to a

format pocket can parse and save to your Kobo.

Install

=======

Install `uv` and git-clone/copy the project dir to your server. Pick

and local port and run with:

```

uv run uvicorn --port 7777 outreddit:app

```

Add a systemd unit to make the service permanent:

```

[Unit]

Description=outreddit

[Service]

orkingDirectory=/path/to/outreddit

ExecStart=/bin/uv run uvicorn --port 7777 outreddit:app

DynamicUser=yes

PrivateDevices=yes

SystemCallFilter=@system-service

RestrictAddressFamilies=AF_INET

MemoryDenyWriteExecute=yes

[Install]

WantedBy=multi-user.target

```

Add an nginx redirect:

```

location /outreddit {

    proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:7777;

    proxy_set_header Host $host;

}

```

Usage

=====

Grab a single-comment link to a comment and pass it as `url` parameter, eg.:

```

https://example.com/outreddit?url=https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/14x8cs/what_did_it_cost_to_go_see_an_actual_mozart_opera/c7hdzih/

```

Save the page to pocket.

Notes

=====

Since pocket doesn't support authentication your service is exposed to

the entire internet. In order to prevent your server from becoming an

"open relay" reddit proxy, there's a fixed 3req/minute rate

limit. It's also best to keep `location` in nginx conf secret:

consider prefixing with a random uuid, etc.
