Hey,

first of all, many thanks for this cool bot. I added it to my server to subscribe to a Confluence feed (I'm using the free cloud version).

When I try ~rssadd the Confluence feed, all I get is Unable to add <long link>, could not validate as a proper feed. As far as I can tell, Confluence builds the feed on the fly. I do not want to publicly disclose my feed URL, but it looks something like this:

https://somedomain.atlassian.net/wiki/createrssfeed.action?types=page&pageSubTypes=comment&pageSubTypes=attachment&types=blogpost&blogpostSubTypes=comment&blogpostSubTypes=attachment&spaces=conf_all&title=Confluence+RSS+Feed&labelString%3D&excludedSpaceKeys%3D&sort=modified&maxResults=10&timeSpan=5&showContent=true&confirm=Create+RSS+Feed&os_authType=basic

and it returns an Atom XML feed when called in the browser:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<feed xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">

Do you think it might be possible to get your bot to work with Confluence?
Would be my last hope to get a proper Confluence Discord integration for activity news on my project server. :)

Kind regards
Michael

Since sqlite3 package devs arent going to fix the issue with their package and node 10.x i want to know if is there any option/alternative database to use with the bot. H2 or other text-based can be good, or the old mysql/mariadb.

Or even change the package from sqlite3 to sqlite because in that the issue was resolved.

Thanks in advance!

Hello, I'm using the version hosted by you and it has been offline for the last few days now.

If this was intentional please let me know and I'll start the version on this git in a microserver for just me.

Hi, i not running bot. Error -> https://pp.userapi.com/c836637/v836637497/67b2a/j01QRU4grbY.jpg

Hi,
First of all, gratz on the bot, works like a charm, keep it up like that !

So now, this is more an improvement suggestion.
When you have a RSS feed that has no time given, the bot will always show 02:00 (with HH:mm configured) as time when posting on discord.

Would it be possible that when there is no time given in the RSS feed, that the bot use the time when he's posting the message on discord instead ?

Thank you and again, really great job done with this bot.
(Sorry if it's not the best place to contact you with such "issue" but couldn't find how to contact you otherwise).

having an issue with images not loading. believe it's a bug/issue with compatibility (on their part). For the latter, feed validation passed, but with reccomendations. Regardless, the images show up in other feed aggregators and I've checked the options, everything seems to be enabled. oddly, the reserved space seems to be there, as if it knew the size of the picture, just not load. Refer to examples for this

Well, starting the bot using pm2 start path/to/Discord.RSS/server.js shows the bot to be running and fine, but it wont became online in my server. Strangely, starting via node /path/to/Discord.RSS/server.js make the bot appear online and fine, but i cant do any command (using default ~ prefix).

And in pm2 the logs only say: 0|Discord. | (node:32571) ExperimentalWarning: The http2 module is an experimental API.

Can you help me? I'm hosting on a rPi 3

This is minor issue, but manual backup of config every time consumes time, instead I suggest moving config.json to config.json.template, and copy it for usage.

For future upgrades compare it with git diff --no-index -- config.json config.json.template to see the difference

Hi, it's me again. The bot wont run for me. I get this error:

I've followed each step of the install, configured the bot, twice with 2 branches and a fresh install for each. It starts up and successfully logs in, gives a little speech on starting up correctly, but then it just sits there.

I can see that the bot is logged in on Discord, it even posts it's status just fine. But it's unresponsive to all commands, no matter what I do.

Any pointers? I could be overlooking something, but I can't seem to find anything I've missed in the setup.

I ran with this error after trying to start the bot after updating my node to 10.x (Raspbian):
https://gist.github.com/vpontin/eb6fd1137c76a53e3bd9980b9555f8e1

Tried to npm rebuild on discord.rss folder but the compilation always end in error. https://gist.github.com/vpontin/03461aa0f684d9fa7b1edd59fa0ac364

I suspect this is something related to sqlite, but i dont know how to fix that.

Hi, I noticed that new RSS items fetched when Discord.RSS is launched won't get posted to server's channels on finishing retrieval cycle. Tested that with the commit af18b22 but I'm sure the issue persists through d354edb.
Unless I do rsstest, the bot remains silent.
Thank you for this wonderful bot.

When i use the command npm install, i get following error

npm WARN [email protected] requires a peer of erlpack@hammerandchisel/erlpack#master but none was installed. 
npm WARN [email protected] requires a peer of [email protected] but none was installed.

i install the peers but nothing works. i get the same error.
i used

npm install --save erlpack@hammerandchisel
npm install --save [email protected]

Can somebody help me?

it works great with the bot. thank you so much for that. but over the night the bot crashed or shut down? i dont know. will you ever make a autostart function?

I've received the below message twice in the past hour. I'm unsure what to check.

"It appears your bot has connected to Discord more than 1000 times within a short time period. Since this kind of behavior is usually a result of a bug we have gone ahead and reset your bot's token."

I've already reset the token, but this happened again. I've tried googling, but didn't find much information on it.

the bot will randomly disconnect and will not reconnect with the CMD window open

and sometimes the CMD window it will just randomly disappear as if it was closed

i cant even find a crash log file, only logFeedErrs & logLinkErrs

Hi!
I'm trying to switch my instance's start method from rc.local to systemd. I used a variation of the script from the wiki, but the bot is looping on this error.

Both files on the gist.

What can i do to make it run?

Thanks in advance!

From time to time, the bot crashes when receiving a weird server response. This 520 is apparently a Cloudflare error, but I haven't been able to pinpoint what feed is causing it, or if it's from Discord itself.

Hi,
First, thanks for this bot !

I've hosted the bot on Heroku as worker to run up 24/7 (free plan)
I'm trying to add Tweet feed to my sources :

"VitalikButerins_tweets": {
"link": "https://queryfeed.net/twitter?q=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FVitalikButerin",
"channel": "403847517520789505",
"message": "{empty}",
"embedMessage": {
"enabled": 1,
"properties": {
"color": 3447003,
"authorTitle": "Vitalik Buterin @VitalikButerin",
"authorAvatarURL": "https://g.twimg.com/dev/img/marketing/twitter-for-websites/header-logo.png",
"thumbnailURL": "https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/421617820644810752/rncc5OWi_400x400.jpeg",
"message": "{description}",
"footerText": "{date}"
}
}
}

I dont know what is wrong, but when i've added that source and tried to call any discord's commands in the channel's source, the app crashes all the time saying :
TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined.

I hope it understandable and you'd help me 😄

Regards

This is behind a cloudflare protected site, and we need it to be able to access it.

If you're willing, email me jamiesinn at ecocitycraft dot com your IP for the host, and I'll whitelist it for cloudflare.

Status: on hold

In the near future, when the transition from SQLite/MySQL to mongodb is fully working on stable. These docs can be used to host your selfhosted Discord.RSS. The solution provided is also known as a PaaS solution.

Todo:
x Test selfmade instruction.
x Improve steps so everything can be done trough the git bash/heroku cli.

• Discuss placement of Procfile. Include in project or rather download?
  x Issue?: not sure if a web worker is created even if procfile is used at first launch. If so, maybe look if project uses a port to contact the outside world. If using a different project's file. The web worker will work withoud dying in 90seconds.

Provided files can be used if you can't wait for it. But only ping Macley#9105 if you get any troubles.
Procfile you need to instert before ever pushing to heroku: https://mega.nz/#!XY43yT6T!8oyAxGGnv7NZ25IgmNYxrPe4kBdNFk_m4DJTfPv8I6U

Hello everyone

How do I get the source link from a post in subreddit (not the post link)?

Like: https://www.origin.com/nld/en-us/store/free-games/on-the-house/
instead of: https://www.reddit.com/r/GameDeals/comments/8bcamt/origin_medal_of_honor_pacific_assault_0free/

Hello there,

so i have a raspberry and i m looking how instal on it :

so i do this step :

sudo apt-get update
sudo mkdir /var/www/html/discordRss
cd /var/www/html/discordRss
sudo git clone https://github.com/synzen/Discord.RSS.git

ok and the drama is :

do u now what is wrong please

Hello, Lovely bot, working great for my RSS stream

I have tried to add a subreddit feed like so:

https://www.reddit.com/r/dubai/.rss

With a custom Embed and all, however, New posts do not trigger the bot

What could be the cause?

There appears to be a memory leak related to the command handler server where it will increase memory usage intermittently, at seemingly arbitrary times (particularly swap space), to the point where there will be no more memory. If the command handler server is disabled, the memory leak appears to be nonexistent.

Will find time to fix this. This only becomes a prevalent issue when fetching a huge number of feeds, otherwise it is practically nonexistent.

Hello, I've made instructions to use systemd unit for managing Discord RSS, it will work as eny other system service with logging to systemd

Since I can't directly make a pull request to wiki, providing wiki repo with changes https://github.com/Danpiel/Discord.RSS.Wiki for manual merging.

Thanks for awesome work.

Noob here, just wanting to host the bot in my spare raspberry pi 3, everything is fine execpt i can't invite my bot due to MISSING RETURN URI, but in Setup section of the wiki nothing is said about this.

What is the correct URI to pass, given i dont have any webserver installed on my pi?

This is more of a personal problem, but I would like to be able to subscribe to more than 5 feeds. Perhaps add an option to override the limit.

Using a Ubuntu16.04 server install, followed the wiki, and had a few errors with sqlite3, but got past those, but now getting this error on launch. GCC and G++ are installed, and npm install ran OK under sudo.

Any thoughts?

Maybe needs a multipage menu for bots that allow over 25 feeds? Like "rsslist 1" "rsslist 2" etc.

Or maybe I am doing something wrong?

Hi!

I don't know how I can run the bot, and how I do install dependencies. Is there any quick howto on how to get the bot up and running? :)

Thanks! :)

i got an error when doing the npm install. and it made this log file

Just as the title says, I can no longer click on the title in the embed to open the link. Using Discord.RSS v. 2.1.0.
Example embed json:

...
"random_name": {
      "title": "Unread Content",
      "link": "<rss_url>",
      "channel": "<channel_id>",
      "message": "{empty}",
      "embedMessage": {
        "enabled": 1,
        "properties": {
          "url": "{link}",
          "color": 0,
          "authorTitle": "{title}",
          "authorAvatarURL": "<image_url>",
          "thumbnailURL": "{image1}",
          "message": "{description}",
          "footerText": "Example.com | {date}"
        }
      }
    }
...

It worked before, but the title stopped being clickable around 3 weeks ago.

Clone Discord.RSS:
$ cd
$ git clone https://github.com/synzen/Discord.RSS.git

Install node modules:
$ cd Discord.RSS
$ npm install

Edit config.json and anything else needed.

Once satisfied with config, exit shell session and create an rc script this this contents
$ exit
# vi /usr/local/etc/rc.d/discord-rss

#!/bin/sh
#
# $FreeBSD$
#

# PROVIDE: discord_rss
# REQUIRE: DAEMON
# KEYWORD: shutdown

#
# Add the following lines to /etc/rc.conf to enable discord_rss:
#
#discord_rss_enable="YES"

. /etc/rc.subr

name="discord_rss"
rcvar="discord_rss_enable"

: ${discord_rss_enable:="NO"}
: ${discord_rss_directory:="/home/discord-rss/Discord.RSS"}

user="discord-rss"
group="discord-rss"

pidfile="/var/run/discord-rss/discord-rss.pid"
command="/usr/sbin/daemon"
command_args="-rSP $pidfile -p $pidfile.child -u $user /usr/local/bin/node ${discord_rss_directory}/server.js"
discord_rss_chdir="$discord_rss_directory"
start_precmd="discord_rss_precmd"

load_rc_config $name

discord_rss_precmd()
{
        if [ ! -d "${pidfile%/?*}" ]; then
                install -d -o "$user" -g "$group" "${pidfile%/?*}"
        fi
}

run_rc_command "$1"

Add discord_rss_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf to start Discord.RSS on reboot:
# sysrc discord_rss_enable="YES"

And finally, start Discord.RSS
# service discord-rss start

Stdout and stderr will be redirected to syslog (/var/log/messages). If this is not desired, removing the -S options from command_args and adding -o /path/to/log should work but have not tested.

Enjoy! =]

See above. I used {description} for this from https://boards.4chan.org/biz/index.rss using an ~rssembed and so I get the description but {description} also posts a photo url in the first part of its message. Any way to get rid of it/filter it?

Hello, Lovely bot thanks for your work

I got it set up and working but i can't seem to be able to get any images from the RSS feed

this is the feed : feeds.feedburner.com/surrenderat20/CqWw

I even tried setting the message to:

{image1} {image2} {image3} {image4} {image5} {image6} {image7} {image8} {image9} {image10} {image11} {image12} {image13} {image14}

And it brings up nothing.

The URL brings only the thumbnail of the site's logo.

What's the IP of the server that's running this so I can whitelist it on cloudflare?

Due to the requests when adding a lot of feeds at once, it gets flagged by CF.

Feel free to email me: [email protected] if you'd not like it private.

From experience in hosting the public version, the bot (or Node itself) has a scaleability issue where it can fails to optimize its requests to a large number of feed links. The current algorithm for handling the links in isolated batches in a forked child process was created months ago (AKA isolated processing method) to handle this issue, however there is an issue of inconsistency (at least on Linux Debian/Ubuntu) where even though it may work for one batch, random batches begins to fail when multiple batches are "queued up" (even though the performance should be identical since it's only ever handling one batch at any time).

The issue has been described in greater detail in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45950114/inconsistent-request-behavior-in-node-when-requesting-large-number-of-links

If this issue can be resolved for consistent behavior, scaleability for this bot will increase tremendously as it was originally intended. If however someone finds otherwise, please let me know. The current workaround for this was to increase the request timeout

Hello there,

i need exatly this, to push some news on my discord channel, can u explain me how to install it on my serveur web please

I run this bot on a large server that for whatever reason, regularly disappears from the server sidebar on Discord. Some of the time when this happens, the guild and feed are deleted, and I need to readd them, even after the server reappears.

Logs of event:

[17:57:29.598] RSS Info: Finished default feed retrieval cycle. Cycle Time: 0.07s.

I'm the only one with permissions on the bot, and no commands were issued during this range.
This output is created in https://github.com/synzen/Discord.RSS/blob/master/events/guildDelete.js , and is being called from the listener file, at https://github.com/synzen/Discord.RSS/blob/master/util/listeners.js#L24

I've temporarily solved the problem by making the json config file for the server unremovable by the user account running the bot, but this probably should be fixed.

When running the bot on many servers, perhaps as a public bot, this behavior makes sense, when a server is deleted or the bot kicked, removing the RSS feed makes sense. However, Discord servers simply are unavailable for minutes at a time, even an hour in extreme cases. There should be some sort of delay on the bot side that prevents this, I'm not sure what though.

Hello,

I noticed on some of the RSS feeds i'm following that some symbols out of the ASCII scope doesn't display properly. Here is in example below:

This error occurs both on windows and linux desktop apps.

If you're currently too busy to deal with this issue, please feel free to indicate me which files i should look into where RSS feeds are retrieved, formatted and finally posted in server's channels, so i can make a pull request fixing this.

How to deploy to Heroku the new way!

Pre-requirements

1. A Heroku account.
2. Have all the credentials you need ready!

Instruction

1. Go to the repo and use the purple looking button to deploy directly to Heroku!
2. Fill in all the details, if you want to host the web dashboard, make sure to also do the following:

• DRSS_WEB_CLIENT_ID
• Get the CLIENT_ID by going here. It should look like: 343394333935336303.
• RSS_WEB_CLIENT_SECRET
• On the same page, copy the client secret.
• DRSS_WEB_ENABLED
• Set this to true. To enable the web part.
• DRSS_WEB_REDIRECT_URI
• Given the name you want to give to your app, make sure to replace APPNAME with yours! https://APPNAME.herokuapp.com/authorize. If you decide to use a domain, change the APPNAME.herokuapp.com to your domain name.
  *Given my appname: d-discordrss. With my domain: drss.meetdelta.com. I configured it as followed:
  
• Do note that i added way to many, if you get into any problem, suggest to use both appname and domain name, in both http and https format.

3. Now hit deploy and go to Resources. Turn off Worker and turn on Web. If you now click on Open app, you should see your own dashboard!
4. Now, to keep Discord.rss up, it's recomanded to use uptimerobot. It's easy to use and even mails you when your bot goes down! When this happens just give it a few moments or reboot it by turning the switch off and on again!
5. Given that you deployed with the button, you can choose to fork the repo, and to connect from Heroku to your app.
   
6. Now, make sure to keep your fork up to date, you can use this project to do this automatically for you! You can set these env variables in the settings tab your Heroku app. You can add the script to the root of your forked repo. The changes should emmediatly trigger a push and build to your app.
7. When that's set, go into your Heroku app to overview, and add the Heroku Scheduler. Configure it with the following: bash ./update.sh you can set the time to whatever you want.

That's it, not only haven't you installed any software, but your app will auto-update with the new dashboard working natively with Heroku!
