HungryHippo

To a hungry hippo, everything is a feed

HungryHippo generates RSS/ATOM/JSON feeds from regularly-updating public sites.

Examples

Pop the HungryHippo link into a RSS reader like Feedly, BazQux, or RSSOwl. Or you can use IE.

You can get a list of supported sites by visiting /individual-site.

If something isn't working or if you would like a new site to be added, please create a GitHub issue.

Running HungryHippo

With docker-compose:

  docker build . -t hungryhippo
  docker run -p 3000:3000 hungryhippo

Without docker:

  npm ci
  npm run start:dev

GitHub

Optionally, provide the GITHUB_OAUTH_TOKEN environment variable to enable the GitHub search RSS feeds.

Development

I may have taken the Hungry Hippo theme a bit too far. In short:

• Muncher: scrapes websites
• Digestor: turns scraped items into feeds
