hello-efficiency-inc / raven-reader Goto Github PK

I don't see any way to read feeds in proper order. Everything is backwards (newest items on top). This forces me to go to the bottom and step my way up. Please add option to sort in correct order.

Currently seems that Raven reader has no caching mechanism. Every time I do click on an article I need to wait until the full page it is loaded.

Will be good to have a cache option to pre load all the articles and images in background to speed-up the reading experience.

I have Kubuntu 18.04 installed and when starting the AppImage following Error
occurs on Terminal:

(raven-reader:4175): Gtk-WARNING **: 11:01:43.487: Theme parsing error: gtk.css:68:35: The style property GtkButton:child-displacement-x is deprecated and shouldn't be used anymore. It will be removed in a future

Hi

I ran a standard check on the SHA512 listed on linux.yml against the latest linux x86_64_AppImage.

Returns a checksum validation mismatch.. confirmed on 2 different validation apps.

I checked the other SHA & MD5 codes to see if this has been a typo in the YML, however none also match. Can you please check the file validity in case of issues with the package?

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Browsing stories with j/k or arrow up and arrow down would make it easier to quickly get through a feed

Describe the solution you'd like
When in the main view pressing j will advance to the next story and pressing k will go to to the previous story.

Describe alternatives you've considered
tab + enter works to advance to the next story but requires two key strokes, same with tab + shift + enter

Additional context
Gmail has support for this type of navigation in its settings for example

hey guys. Just ran npm run release and I get the following:

ERROR in ./app/helpers/feeds.js
Module not found: Error: Cannot resolve module 'underscore.string' in C:\dev\rss-reader\app\helpers

it didn't stop the build, but the app has a white screen and does nothing :(

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
no

Describe the solution you'd like
use inoreader for sync

Describe alternatives you've considered

I see that Linux support is mentioned in the roadmap, so I thought I'd create an issue for this so I (and anyone else interested) can be notified when this is "fixed".

Hi Everyone ,

I am working on updating the current application using new updated Electron 1.1 and updated version of Vue.js/Vuex. While I am working on the new update I want to gather feedback from existing application i.e What did you like about it and What did you didn't like about it ? and How it can be improved ?.

I am also interested in knowing what kind of features would you look in your typical reader app. Plus I would be happy if anyone wants to collaborate in working on this application and contributing in adding more features.

Thank you.

Can you please add a command line argument to start in the system tray without showing a window for example, --start-in-tray.
Thanks

"Open in Browser" - Button is not working at the AppImage File.

No errors are printed on the console.

Would like to see some of the basic features of RSS Bandit added. Like

1. grouping feeds
2. set marked as read by selecting items, feeds or group of feeds.
   You can reference: http://rssbandit.org
   Some icons need tooltips like the black circle. I have no idea what would happen if I clicked it.
   For the Unread Articles, do not remove the selected item until I select a new item.

Describe the bug
I am trying to add RSS feed using "Kill the Newsletter" service. I have the XML file which is validated. But Raven Reader crashes and it fails to add.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open 'Raven Reader'.
2. Click on 'Add'.
3. Enter https://www.kill-the-newsletter.com/feeds/d6s8iyxebya5iygcybbu.xml and press Enter.
4. See error.

Expected behavior
A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.

Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 10

Additional context
The feed is validated here.

Describe the bug
I've tried to import my feeds. I've read that it imports OPML, great! Went straight to my feedly account and exported the .opml file. I couldn't import it as I've later found in code it accept xml files I've changed the .opml to .xml but it does not work. All other RSS readers accept the opml from feedly, but not this one.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to https://feedly.com/i/opml
2. Click on "Download your Feedly OPML"
3. Rename the file to something.xml
4. Open RSS reader app
5. Click on Import Subscriptions
6. Nothing is imported, no error, no nothing

Expected behavior
I've expected that OPML is some sort of standard and that all the apps can read it without issues.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: MacOS
• Version 10.13.6

Additional notes
On another note, the input field should truncate the filename if it doesn't fit.

Maybe this is just a #todo more than a bug, but I think the reader cannot work without the ability to highlight and copy text.

E.

First, thanks for building this!

Second, what license should is this code under? Currently, I can't find one stated anywhere--which means it's "All Rights Reserved" in most jurisdictions.

I noticed your bookmark project is under the MIT. Perhaps that was the intent here also?

It'd be helpful to clarify the license for encouraging outside contribution and further use.

Thanks!
🎩

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, I cannot sort the articles list by date.

Describe the solution you'd like
Allow option to sort it based on date.

It would be a very nice feature if there is a way to organize subscriptions under specific topics / folders like Feedly is providing it. 😉

Hi, thanks for the great work.

I noticed that Raven doesn't work behind a proxy and there isn't a place to set it.

Possible npm package to support that: https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-proxy

Some sources limit the article contents to a few sentences and force us to visit their site to read full article. FilveFilters is a crowd sourced filters which can be used to fetch full articles from their websites. It'd be great if you integrate them within your app.

Hi there, I saw that you have a snap package on your releases page, but not available in the store? Curious as to how come? It is way easier to get it that way. Thank you.

Hello

Wondering if you'd consider the Oldreader (or Feedly) support?

dGo

See title.

Text is unreadable.

I have recently discoverd this cool project thanks a lot for that.
So my feature request is the following. On a website which I regularly visit, there is an rss feed in an xml notation. Unfortunately the reader cannot detect the rss.xml or read it, I'm not sure here.

It would be awesome if you could support the path or the notation of the rss.xml. The feed is stored in the root folder of the website. E.g https://mysite.com/rss.xml

For reference, here is the website. http://www.vanion.eu The rss is accessable with www.vanion.eu/rss.xml

Thanks a lot

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'd like to use rss-reader on some RSS feeds protected by Basic and NTLM auth.

Describe the solution you'd like
Ideally, when I add a URL, it would let me either specify user and password for Basic Auth, toggle NTLM pass-through from Chromium, or even better load the feed in a hosted window and let me login to the feed using the URL and cache the cookies/auth tokens.

In Chrome, my browser just passes the NTLM auth from Windows, not sure if this is possible with Electron. I would be interested in trying to contribute this change if I could be pointed in the right direction in the code base.

Hi, TTRSS (https://tt-rss.org/) is nice a RSS web selfhosted app but for my desktop day to day use i'de like to be able to use your client.

Be quite nice if RavenReader could support NextCloud. I'm assuming it doesn't now as it's not explicitly mentioned that I can see.
Thank-you

Can you please add notification support for new articles.
Thanks

Raven (AppImage) icon is not showing in Ubuntu Dock (Ubuntu 18.04). Adding StartupWMClass to Raven .desktop file doesn't solve the problem.

PS
Is there any way to disable Raven indicator?

hi , i tried this app but i get a blank page.
thank you

Is there any db setup i need to do?

Nice work on this! I want to suggest synchronization with Feedly. This way, we can keep all our devices up to date.

Do you have any ideas for a logo / branding for RSS Reader? I have not seen anything for it (I don't think).

If not would you be open to some ideas?

I dont understand how to install this. Im on windows 10.

Some pages do not follow the web page standard and can not display in the app. Ex: some articles in https://politepol.com/feed/22004 can not display a full article.

Can you just add a detection on displaying article? If can not display the article, just display the full page.

And if there is a plan to support multi-language, I can help you on the translation for Chinese (both Simplified and Traditional) and Korean.

Title sorta says it all...

Describe the bug

I am trying to work on better solution of handling updating of feeds regularly. Does anyone has solution of implementing cronjob like background process to refresh feeds and add latest articles in electron ?

So far only I can think of either using background process by booting up invisible browser or figure out way of using web workers. I also do now want to block UI. And trying to make it smooth and optimal.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Wouldn't be a feature request if it was :)

Hey, Like the new name! :)

Just a small feature change/request..
Would it be possible to change the notifications from "New article added" to something more dynamic?

The title of the notification being the title of the article, the body being the first few sentences and the picture being the picture embedded in the article?

Because the current notification doesn't really say anything :)

Thanks!

Very Minor issue

• About Application doesn't work
• Export Subscription doesn't work

Suggestions

• When adding new feeds, have the little checkmark be checked by default
• When offline reading becomes a thing, allow to specify how long the cached data should be kept
• Allow to specify the refresh interval (when to check for new news)
• Minimize to tray
• Notification upon new news
• Dark Mode
• Mark all as read

All in all, a very slick interface and ofcourse a functional program, great job! :)

Will document as I go along:

• needed to install XCode and the XCode command line tools with xcode-select --install

• needed to rebuild node-sass

• there is a config file in /src/parsers that is set as example and seems to need a MERCURY_API_TOKEN (instructions should say its required to signup and then edit this config example file)

• Looking for where to put in my Apple Developer Credentials ...
