RSSt is a commandline tool that dump articles in followed feeds into offline files when run. It aims to be the tool for RSS what OfflineIMAP has been for IMAP.
See rsst --help for all options, but generally it's this workflow:
XDG_CONFIG_HOME/rsst/config.toml:```toml [setting] outputformat = "html" outputdir = "~/documents/rsst/"
[source] example = "https://example.com/rss.xml" ```
If output_dir is not given, the default one is "~/rsst". Sources listed in source section are the followed feeds, where example is the alias (used as the subdirectory name) and "https://example.com/rss.xml" is the feed file address.
Simply run rsst every time you want to check if there are new articles. RSSt will keep track of the last newest articles in $XDG_DATA_HOME/rsst, and incrementally retrieving new articles next time. You can sort files based on created/modified time to see what's new.
Retrieved articles will be in the given output_dir or ~/rsst. You can read them or parse them with whatever the way you want (web browser, for example).
Install it with whatever ways you like, for example:
bash
https://github.com/quinoa42/rsst.git
cd rsst
cargo build --release
Then compiled executable will be located at target/release/rsst.
