RSS Reader Api Support in newsfeed module

Open b-reich opened this issue 1 year ago • 6 comments

It would be a cool feature if the newsfeed module had support for rss reader api like fever or greader. Both apis are often supported by rss feeder

I think it is practical to maintain your rss feeds in only one place. it may be practical to display only tagged feeds on the mirror.

Do you have any example urls that one can use to test the current newsfeed module with? So we might see what has to be done to get those supported? Also: For me newb, what does fever and greader offer for adavantages?

Think you can test it with freshrss demo feed https://demo.freshrss.org/api/ (when not, i could provide you an account on my instance) there are some api docs linked here fever or greader

I think the greader one is bit more common because Google Reader was so popular. Maybe @Alkarex (Maintainer of fresshrss) can provide some infos

Let me know if you need anything concrete. The GReader API is much more comprehensive and robust than the Fever API
