how to add custom sources? #4
Comments
There isn't a way to add custom sources |
You can request sources. I could add them in future releases. |
For India - def scraping The Hindu or Indian Express would be good ! Please consider if possible :)) |
Can't you implement feed search by name/site and have the option for the person to add it manually? |
Each site needs to be scraped differently, so I don't think its possible to have that option. |
Ah yes, I had misunderstood, that the app was an RSS feed reader, the only problem for me is that these readers do not support automatic translation can you add then please. |
Added in v0.9.0 |
Since this thread didn't help me answer my question I'm gonna post it here: Is custom feed support something you want to support in the future? Like from a RSS feed URL or importing OPML files |
@D3SOX When this issue was created I didn't have a plan to support custom feeds as for extracting the full article - scraping from the source would still be needed (RSS feeds dont have the whole content). But a few days ago I came across smort.io which could help extract whole content. That would mean I just have to scrape smort and not the individual custom sources. However I think depending only on smort might cause issues (it may go down etc). So I am planning to add a fallback first in case that happens, after which custom sources could be added. Hope it makes sense // Let me know if you any other ideas. |
@ksh-b Thanks for the detailed insights. I think supporting custom feeds without the full content is okay at first when there's a button to open it in the browser or an In-App-WebView. The previous RSS readers I've used have basic support for fetching full contents locally: Having something like smort.io as fallback would be a great addition. |
Rss/Atom support added in v0.12.0 Subscriptions >custom > RSS |
Great! Should I open a separate issue for OPML import/export support? |
Yes. You can open separate issues for both. |
http://pointieststick.com/feed works with morss though |
There are sites like https://www.haz.de/ which release every article for a few hours and after that period they are out behind a paywall. There the scraper would be awesome to scrape the whole article. And I would like to see heise.de as the biggest German it site in the supported sources too. |
Scraping 'Times Of India' would be nice. |
Currently for India only two channels could be selected -; how do we add more - sources too little.
