RSS Reader

A small PoC done as a learning project.

How it works

• Scheduler: checks the database for feeds that are due (next_poll_at) and triggers ingestion.
• Fetcher/Parser: politely fetches feeds, parses XML/JSON into entries.
• Database: stores feeds and entries, prevents duplicates, and schedules the next poll.

Setup

1. Install deps: npm install
2. Create DB: createdb rss
3. Configure .env with DATABASE_URL=postgres://user:pass@127.0.0.1:5432/rss
4. Run migrations + seed:

   npm run migrate
   npm run seed
