Newspipe is a free, self-hosted news aggregator that allows you to read and follow your favorite websites in one place with customizable filters, tags, and categories. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of Newspipe on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS using Git and Docker.
Before starting this tutorial, you should have:
First, open a new terminal window or connect to your server via SSH.
To clone the Newspipe repository, run the following command:
git clone https://git.sr.ht/~cedric/newspipe
Navigate to the cloned directory using the following command:
cd newspipe
Next, run the following command to build the Docker image for Newspipe:
docker build -t newspipe .
This command will take a few minutes to complete, depending on your internet connection and hardware specifications. Once the image is built, you can verify it by running the following command:
docker images
This should display a list of all Docker images on your system, including the Newspipe image.
To start the Newspipe web application, you need to run a Docker container from the previously built image. You can do this by running the following command:
docker run -d --name newspipe -p 8000:8000 newspipe
This command will run the container in detached mode, name it "newspipe," and map port 8000 from the container to port 8000 on the host. You can verify it by running the following command:
docker ps
This should display a list of all running Docker containers on your system, including the Newspipe container.
Open your web browser and navigate to the server's IP address or domain name, followed by port 8000, for example:
http://your_server_ip:8000
If everything is working correctly, you should see the Newspipe login page. You can now create a new account or sign in with an existing one to start using Newspipe.
In this tutorial, you have learned how to install Newspipe on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS. With this self-hosted news aggregator, you can keep up to date with your favorite websites and customize your news feed to your preferences.
