* export and import feeds with OPML files;
* search and favorite articles;
* detection of inactive feeds;
* share articles on Pinboard, Reddit and Twitter;
* management of bookmarks (with import from Pinboard).


## Deployment

Newspipe is really easy to deploy.

Assuming you have already installed ``git``, ``npm``, ``poetry``,  and
``Python >= 3.8``, you just have to do the following:

```bash
$ git clone https://git.sr.ht/~cedric/newspipe
$ cd newspipe/
$ npm install
$ poetry install
$ export Newspipe_CONFIG=sqlite.py
$ poetry shell
$ python manager.py db_create
$ python manager.py create_admin <nickname> <password>
$ python runserver.py
  * Running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/ (Press CTRL+C to quit)
```

If you want to use PostgreSQL you can customize
the provided example configuration file (``instance/production.py``):

```bash
$ sudo apt-get install postgresql
$ cp instance/production.py instance/postgresql.py
$ vim instance/postgresql.py # customize it
$ export Newspipe_CONFIG=postgresql.py
```

For production you can use [Gunicorn](https://gunicorn.org) or ``mod_wsgi``.
