# About

🐋 Awesome TTRSS aims to provide a powerful Dockerized all-in-one solution for Tiny Tiny RSS, an open source RSS feed reader and aggregator written in PHP, with enhanced user experience via simplified deployment and a list of curated plugins.

# Special Thanks

# Deployment

A VPS is highly recommended to host your Awesome TTRSS instance, a VPS can be obtained from as little as $5/month at DigitalOcean. Alternatively, you may request for personalized support, fully-managed service or fully-managed VPS via sponsoring Awesome TTRSS on its 💰OpenCollective page.

Awesome TTRSS supports multiple architectures x86 ✓arm32v7 ✓arm64v8 ✓, except the OpenCC API.

# Deployment via docker

docker run -it --name ttrss --restart=always \
-e SELF_URL_PATH = [ your public URL ]  \
-e DB_HOST = [ your DB address ]  \
-e DB_PORT= [ your DB port ]  \
-e DB_NAME = [ your DB name ]  \
-e DB_USER = [ your DB user ]  \
-e DB_PASS = [ your DB password ]  \
-p [ public port ]:80  \
-d wangqiru/ttrss

# Deployment via docker-compose

docker-compose.yml include 4 docker images:

TTRSS
PostgreSQL
Mercury Parser API
OpenCC API arm32v7 ✗arm64v8 ✗

# Steps

Download docker-compose.yml to any directory.
Read docker-compose.yml and change the settings (please ensure you have changed the password for postgres).
Run docker-compose up -d and wait for the deployment to finish.
Access ttrss via port 181, with default credentials admin and password, please change them asap.
wangqiru/mercury-parser-api and wangqiru/opencc-api-server are optional service containers to support additional features, removing them will not affect TTRSS's basic functionalities.

# Supported Environment Variables

SELF_URL_PATH: the url to your TTRSS instance. 🔴 Please note that this value should be consistent with the URL you see in your browser address bar, otherwise TTRSS will not start.
DB_HOST: the address of your database
DB_PORT: the port of your database
DB_NAME: the name of your database
DB_USER: the user of your database
DB_PASS: the password of your database
ENABLE_PLUGINS: the plugins you'd like to enable as global plugins, note that auth_internal is required
SESSION_COOKIE_LIFETIME: the expiry time for your login session cookie in hours, default to 24 hours
HTTP_PROXY: ip:port, the global proxy for your TTRSS instance, to set proxy on a per feed basis, use Options per Feed
SINGLE_USER_MODE: true will enable single user mode and disable user authentication, which means login will not be required. Please only enable this under a secure environment

# Configure HTTPS

TTRSS container itself doesn't handle HTTPS traffic. An example of configuring an Nginx reverse proxy with free SSL certificate from Let's Encrypt is shown below:

upstream ttrssdev {
    server 127.0.0.1:181;
}

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name  ttrssdev.henry.wang;
    return 301 https://ttrssdev.henry.wang$request_uri;
}

server {
    listen 443 ssl;
    gzip on;
    server_name  ttrssdev.henry.wang;

    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/ttrssdev.henry.wang/fullchain.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/ttrssdev.henry.wang/privkey.pem;

    access_log /var/log/nginx/ttrssdev_access.log combined;
    error_log  /var/log/nginx/ttrssdev_error.log;

    location / {
        proxy_redirect off;
        proxy_pass http://ttrssdev;

        proxy_set_header  Host                $http_host;
        proxy_set_header  X-Real-IP           $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header  X-Forwarded-Ssl     on;
        proxy_set_header  X-Forwarded-For     $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header  X-Forwarded-Proto   $scheme;
        proxy_set_header  X-Frame-Options     SAMEORIGIN;

        client_max_body_size        100m;
        client_body_buffer_size     128k;

        proxy_buffer_size           4k;
        proxy_buffers               4 32k;
        proxy_busy_buffers_size     64k;
        proxy_temp_file_write_size  64k;
    }
}

🔴 Please note that the value in you SELF_URL_PATH should be changed as well.

# Update

Awesome TTRSS automatically keeps up with TTRSS by mirroring the official releases, this means update can be issued frequently.

TTRSS stopped releasing tags. wangqiru/ttrss:latest will sync with TTRSS' master branch periodically.

# Manual Update

You can fetch the latest image manually:

docker pull wangqiru/ttrss:latest
# docker pull wangqiru/mercury-parser-api:latest
# docker pull wangqiru/opencc-api-server:latest
docker-compose up -d # If you didn't use docker-compose, I'm sure you know what to do.

# Auto Update

The example docker-compose includes Watchtower, which automatically pulls all containers included in Awesome TTRSS (and other containers running on your system) and refreshes your running services. By default, it's disabled, make sure it will not affect your other service containers before enabling this.

To exclude images, check the following for disabling auto update for containers:

service.mercury:
  image: wangqiru/mercury-parser-api:latest
  container_name: mercury
  expose:
    - 3000
  restart: always
  # ⬇️ this prevents Watchtower from auto updating mercury-parser-api
  labels:
    - com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=false

# Migration

To further optimize Awesome TTRSS, sometimes breaking changes will be introduced.

# Postgres Migration

Migrate from sameersbn/postgresql to postgres:alpine.

Image	sameersbn/postgresql	postgres:alpine
Postgres version	10.2	latest (12.1 as of the time of writing)
Size	176MB	72.8MB

Since sameersbn/postgresql is no longer needed for enabling the pg_trgm extension, switching to postgres:alpine will benefit Awesome TTRSS from latest updates of Postgres and also be able to reduce the deployment size by over 100MB.

To begin the migration:

Stop all the service containers:
```
docker-compose stop
```
Move the Postgres data volume ~/postgres/data/, or the location specified in your docker-compose file, to somewhere else as a backup, THIS IS IMPORTANT.

Use the following command to dump all your data:

docker exec postgres pg_dumpall -c -U YourUsername > export.sql

Update your docker-compose file (Note that the DB_NAME must not be changed) with database.postgres section in the the latest docker-compose.yml, and bring it up:
```
docker-compose up -d
```

Use the following command to restore all your data:

cat export.sql | docker exec -i postgres psql -U YourUsername

Test if everything works fine, and now you may remove the backup in step 2.

The legacy docker-compose file is archived as docker-compose.legacy.yml.

# Plugins

# Mercury Fulltext Extraction

Fetch fulltext of articles via a self-hosted Mercury Parser API. A separate Mercury Parser API is required, the example docker-compose has already included such a server.

# Steps

Enable mercury-fulltext plugin in preference
Enter Mercury Parser API endpoint

# Fever API

Provide Fever API simulate.

# Steps

Enable API in preference
Enter a password for Fever in preference
In supported RSS readers, use https://[your url]/plugins/fever as the target server address, with your account and the password set in Step 2.
The plugin communicates with TTRSS using an unsalted MD5 hash, using HTTPS is strongly recommended.

# OpenCC Simp-Trad Chinese Conversion arm32v7 ✗arm64v8 ✗

Conversion between Traditional and Simplified Chinese via OpenCC , a separate OpenCC API Server is required. the example docker-compose has already included such a server.

# Steps

Enable opencc plugin in preference
Enter OpenCC API endpoint

Demo instances, availability is not guaranteed: https://opencc.henry.wang or http://opencc2.henry.wang.

# FeedReader API

WARNING

If you are getting data via fever api, enable it by adding remove_iframe_sandbox to the environment variable ENABLE_PLUGINS.

This plugin cannot be enabled in conjunction with Fever API as global plugins, if you require both plugins:

In ENABLE_PLUGINS replace fever with remove_iframe_sandbox to enable this as a global plugin.
Enable Fever API in the TTRSS preferences panel after login, as a local plugin.

Remove the sandbox attribute on iframes, thus enabling playback of embedded video in feeds.
