yarr (yet another rss reader) is a web-based feed aggregator which can be used both as a desktop application and a personal self-hosted server.

It is written in Go with the frontend in Vue.js. The storage is backed by SQLite.

• Everything that original yarr had
• Save items directly to your pocket with single click
• Better display of nitter feed

The latest prebuilt binaries for Linux/MacOS/Windows are available here.

• macos

  ⚠️ I don't use macos and has never tested any of changes on it so its possible things might break there

  • Download yarr-*-macos64.zip, unzip it, place yarr.app in /Applications folder, open the app

• windows

  • Download yarr-*-windows64.zip, unzip it, open yarr.exe

• linux

  • Download yarr-*-linux64.zip, unzip it, place yarr in $HOME/.local/bin
  • Run the script.

• For self-hosting, see yarr -h for auth, tls & server configuration flags.

• For building from source code, see build.md

• For building with docker, see (docker.md)(doc/docker.md)

If you'd like to use the Add to Pocket button on the feeds then you can do so by following the steps mentioned below:

• Create a new Pocket Application

  • https://getpocket.com/developer/apps/new

• Take the consumer key and put it in etc/get-pocket-token.py

  • https://github.com/mzfr/yarr/blob/master/etc/get-pocket-token.py#L5

• Run the python script

  • You'll need to have python3 installed.

• Once the script runs, it will give you a URL, click on it and authorize the application.

• After the scripts execution stops, you will have a access_token.

If the you don't wanna run the script you can also get the access_token manually. For that please follow the steps mentioned here

I really loved using this RSS reader because this was simple to run and had all the functionality I was looking for in an RSS reader, except one. That was to share/add the item to your [pocket](https://getpocket.com/ account). And the original author didn't want to introduce any 3rd party dependencies in their version of the application. So I decided to fork it and add that(and maybe a few more) feature to my own fork.

• Feather for icons.
• The Docker configuration is taken from @Wakeful-Cloud (their fork)
