Newspipe is a self-hosted webfeed aggregator that can be used to read and manage RSS feeds. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps of installing Newspipe on a Windows 10 machine.
Before we can begin, you will need the following:
To begin the installation process, you will need to clone the Newspipe repository. Open the command prompt by pressing the Windows + R keys and typing cmd in the Run dialog. Once the command prompt is open, type the following command to clone the repository:
git clone https://git.sr.ht/~cedric/newspipe
Once the repository is cloned, navigate to the project directory using the cd command:
cd newspipe
Next, we will install the required dependencies. Type the following command in the command prompt:
pip install -r requirements.txt
Newspipe requires a configuration file to be created before it can be started. In the project directory, copy the config.example.py file to a new file named config.py by executing the following command:
copy config.example.py config.py
Newspipe requires a database to store your feeds and articles. To initialize the database, run the following command:
python manage.py migrate
Finally, we can start the server by running the following command:
python manage.py runserver
Open a web browser and visit http://localhost:8000 to access Newspipe.
That's it! You have successfully installed Newspipe on your Windows 10 machine. You can now add RSS feeds and start following the latest news and updates from your favorite websites.
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!
