Version 0.10.0 released
RSS Please is a command line tool that allows you to generate RSS feeds from web pages. Parts of the page are extracted using CSS selectors and a feed generated from the matching items. RSS Please runs on Linux, macOS, Windows, BSD, and more.
The 0.10.0 release has been published. RSS Please now optionally supports reading web pages from local files.
Version 0.10.0
This release adds a new optional boolean property, file_urls
, to the
configuration file (default false
) indicating whether to allow fetching web
pages from file
URLs. When set to true
,
feed.config.url can be a URL using the
file
scheme to a local HTML file like:
file:///home/wmoore/Documents/example.html
.
This feature enables workflows where the HTML is generated locally before running RSS Please, or fetching the HTML using a different mechanism such as a cURL invocation or headless browser. This latter option might allow generating RSS feeds from sites that require authentication or JavaScript to render.
A statically linked binary for ARM64 Linux is also published for this release, which should run on Raspberry Pis, and other ARM based Linux devices.
