Installation

Binary Release

In the future binaries will be available from the releases page.

Docker Compose

The included docker-compose file currently builds the image locally. In the future it will pull from Docker Hub.

> docker compose up -d

Development

We recommend using Air to facilitate execution and hot-reloading of the server during development. A config file has been provided so running the server is as simple as executing:

> air

To facilitate debugging in VSCode, a launch configuration has been included that you can use to run the server with the attached debugger.

Configuration

FeedGator utilizes a variety of environment variables for configuration. These can either be set directly in the execution environment, included as part of a docker-compose.yaml definition, or provided in a .env file in the execution directory. The .env file will always be overridden by other methods so is particularly useful for development. The service will also fall back to a default value if one is not otherwise provided.

Variable	Description	Default
PORT	The port that hosts the configuration UI and aggregated feeds.	80

Example .env File

PORT=80
