Newspipe docker image

I found a new project to tickle my fancy: newspipe! This is a python+flask rss feed aggregator. I had perused the awesome-selfhosted list for a feed manager written in a language I'm familiar with. I was inspired by a fellow netizen's FreeIPA auth plugin for his rss reader.

Because I was just experimenting with this, I didn't want to install it directly to a system. Nor did I want any of the dependencies, like npm or whatever "poetry" is. So I whipped up a docker image for it, which took a lot of trial-and-error. I found only one existing, outdated docker image, for architecture arm7 which doesn't apply to me.

So here is my project: newspipe-docker! I have a dockerfile and also a docker-compose.yml. And yes, I based it on the Devuan image! I wanted ease of development, and not minimum size. I should refactor for that now, though, shouldn't I? Feel free to undertake that for me and let me know.

Next time: I add ldap auth, so I'm not lagging behind the cool kids.
