pulsarss

RSS Aggregator for Gemini Protocol

pulsarss is a multi-process crawler for RSS feeds, that collects and converts results into the static gemtext files; also aggregates an actual index.gmi file in the relevant folders organized by channel / item pub_date.

Note

At this moment, pulsarss does not provide any built-in server. To read the data collected, use any server for static files listed in the awesome-gemini
