This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Miniflux, an open-source RSS reader, on Fedora CoreOS Latest. Follow the steps below to install Miniflux on your Fedora CoreOS machine.
Before we begin, ensure that you have the following:
To ensure that your machine is up-to-date, update the system by running the following commands.
sudo rpm-ostree update
sudo systemctl reboot
Miniflux requires a PostgreSQL database to store data. Install PostgreSQL by running the following command.
sudo podman run --rm -it \
-e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=miniflux_password \
-v /var/lib/pgsql/data:/var/lib/postgresql/data \
postgres:alpine
This command will pull the PostgreSQL container with the alpine tag, set the default PostgreSQL user password, and mount the data directory of the PostgreSQL container to the data directory of the host.
Install Miniflux by running the following command.
sudo podman run --rm -it \
-e DATABASE_URL=postgres://postgres:miniflux_password@127.0.0.1:5432/miniflux \
-e BASE_URI=https://example.com/miniflux \
-v /opt/miniflux:/var/lib/miniflux \
miniflux/miniflux
This command will pull the Miniflux container, set the PostgreSQL database URL, define the base URI of the Miniflux instance, and mount the Miniflux data directory to /opt/miniflux.
Once Miniflux is installed, you can verify the installation by accessing the Miniflux web interface using a web browser. Enter the IP address of your Fedora CoreOS machine and append /miniflux to the URL. For example, http://192.168.1.100/miniflux.
Congratulations! You have now installed Miniflux on your Fedora CoreOS machine. You can now use it to read your favorite RSS feeds.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
