DEPRECATION NOTICE

This image is deprecated. We will not offer support for this image and it will not be updated.

linuxserver/feed2toot

Feed2toot automatically parses rss feeds, identifies new posts and posts them on the Mastodon social network.

Supported Architectures

We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker here and our announcement here.

Simply pulling lscr.io/linuxserver/feed2toot:latest should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags.

The architectures supported by this image are:

| Architecture | Available | Tag |

| x86-64 | ✅ | amd64-\ | | arm64 | ✅ | arm64v8-\ |

Application Setup

Run docker run --rm -it -w /config -v /path/to/data:/config -e PUID=1000 -e PGID=1000 lscr.io/linuxserver/feed2toot /lsiopy/bin/register_feed2toot_app to generate credential files (be sure to set the correct volume path and PUID/PGID values).

Edit the feed2toot.ini in /config to configure your instance name and RSS feeds.

See the feed2toot docs for more information.

Usage

To help you get started creating a container from this image you can either use docker-compose or the docker cli.

[!NOTE] Unless a parameter is flaged as 'optional', it is *mandatory* and a value must be provided.

docker-compose (recommended, click here for more info)

docker cli (click here for more info)

Parameters

Containers are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate : respectively. For example, -p 8080:80 would expose port 80 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080 outside the container.

| Parameter | Function |

| -e PUID=1000 | for UserID - see below for explanation | | -e PGID=1000 | for GroupID - see below for explanation | | -e TZ=Etc/UTC | specify a timezone to use, see this list. | | -e FEED_LIMIT=5 | Limit number of RSS entries published at each execution. | | -v /config | Persistent config files |

Environment variables from files (Docker secrets)

You can set any environment variable from a file by using a special prepend FILE__.

As an example:

Will set the environment variable MYVAR based on the contents of the /run/secrets/mysecretvariable file.

Umask for running applications

For all of our images we provide the ability to override the default umask settings for services started within the containers using the optional -e UMASK=022 setting. Keep in mind umask is not chmod it subtracts from permissions based on it's value it does not add. Please read up here before asking for support.

User / Group Identifiers

When using volumes (-v flags), permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container, we avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user PUID and group PGID.

Ensure any volume directories on the host are owned by the same user you specify and any permissions issues will vanish like magic.

In this instance PUID=1000 and PGID=1000, to find yours use id your_user as below:

Example output:

Docker Mods

We publish various Docker Mods to enable additional functionality within the containers. The list of Mods available for this image (if any) as well as universal mods that can be applied to any one of our images can be accessed via the dynamic badges above.

Support Info

• Shell access whilst the container is running: • To monitor the logs of the container in realtime: • Container version number: • Image version number:

Updating Info

Most of our images are static, versioned, and require an image update and container recreation to update the app inside. With some exceptions (noted in the relevant readme.md), we do not recommend or support updating apps inside the container. Please consult the Application Setup section above to see if it is recommended for the image.

Below are the instructions for updating containers:

Via Docker Compose

• Update images: • All images: • Single image: • Update containers: • All containers: • Single container: • You can also remove the old dangling images:

Via Docker Run

• Update the image: • Stop the running container: • Delete the container: • Recreate a new container with the same docker run parameters as instructed above (if mapped correctly to a host folder, your /config folder and settings will be preserved) • You can also remove the old dangling images:

Image Update Notifications - Diun (Docker Image Update Notifier)

[!TIP] We recommend Diun for update notifications. Other tools that automatically update containers unattended are not recommended or supported.

Building locally

If you want to make local modifications to these images for development purposes or just to customize the logic:

The ARM variants can be built on x86_64 hardware and vice versa using lscr.io/linuxserver/qemu-static

Once registered you can define the dockerfile to use with -f Dockerfile.aarch64.
