Installing CommaFeed on Fedora CoreOS

CommaFeed is a self-hosted RSS reader that allows users to read and manage their RSS feeds from a single location. It is a simple and easy-to-use RSS reader that can be installed on your own server. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install CommaFeed on Fedora CoreOS.

Prerequisites

Before we proceed, here are the prerequisites that you need:

• A running instance of Fedora CoreOS latest version
• A user account with sudo privileges

Installing CommaFeed

For installing CommaFeed on Fedora CoreOS latest version, we will be using Docker. If Docker is not already installed on your system, you can install it by running this command:

sudo dnf install docker

Once Docker is installed, you can proceed with the following steps:

1. Create a Docker Compose file

In order to launch CommaFeed, we need to create a Docker Compose file. Create a new file named docker-compose.yaml using the following command:

sudo nano docker-compose.yaml

Paste the following contents into the file:

version: '3'

services:
  web:
    image: commafeed/commafeed
    restart: always
    environment:
      - JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS=-Xmx512m
    ports:
      - "8080:8080"
    volumes:
      - /opt/commadata:/opt/commafeed/data

This Compose file will pull CommaFeed image from Docker Hub and run it with the proper configuration.

Here, we are mapping the 8080 port from the container to the host system. You can use your preferred port instead of the 8080.

2. Start the Docker Compose

Once you have created the Docker Compose file, run the following command to start the application:

sudo docker-compose up -d

Here, the -d flag is used to run the container in the background.

3. Access CommaFeed Web Interface

Once the container is running, you can access CommaFeed web interface by opening a web browser and navigate to http://[server-ip]:8080

You will be prompted with the CommaFeed login page where you can create a new account or login with your existing account.

That's it! You have successfully installed and configured CommaFeed on your Fedora CoreOS. You can now start using CommaFeed to manage your RSS feeds.

To stop the container, you can run:

sudo docker-compose down
