Requirements

• Python 2.4 and above

Installation

Create a local config, optionally edit it.

cp conf/config.ini-dist conf/config.ini cp conf/hg-feeds.opml-dist conf/hg-feeds.opml

Usage

For best results, set up a crontab, eg:

/10 * $HOME/devel/mozilla/lizardfeeder/run.sh

For a full run, expunge / spider / splice

./run.sh

Fetch all subscribed feeds

./venus/spider.py ./conf/config.ini

Rebuild output from cached data

./venus/splice.py ./conf/config.ini

Expunge old entries from data cache

./venus/expunge.py ./conf/config.ini

To run periodically without crontab (handy for development)

./tools/loop-run.sh
