Tried building yarr for raspberry pi as per the instruction and got build successful however while try to run got the error:
-bash: ./yarr: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

Then changed GOARCH=amd64 to GOARCH=armv7 in makefile and got issue(s) while build mkdir -p _output/linux GOOS=linux GOARCH=armv7 go build -tags "sqlite_foreign_keys release linux" -ldflags="-s -w -X 'main.Version=2.1' -X 'main.GitHash=f98de9a0'" -o _output/linux/yarr src/main.go cmd/go: unsupported GOOS/GOARCH pair linux/armv7 make: *** [makefile:21: build_linux] Error 2

Guide me how to resolve this, thanks.

Hi 👋 Thank you for creating yarr. I've been using it for ages and it's wonderful! No other feed reader that I know of is so delightfully minimalistic and so easy to self-host thanks to the choice of SQLite and Go.

I have a slight nuisance though with some feed items reappearing as unread from time to time in the reader. Note that the content of the items that reappear do not change (most of the time). They just need to be marked as read by hand. I'm sure other people experience that too and I'm curious what's the way avoid that and only see truly unread items in the reader.

One cause that I've observed is when a RSS feed has <guid isPermalink=false> as e.g. at https://rss.art19.com/you-can-learn-chinese. In such case it's no wonder yarr doesn't try to guess whether an item is read or not because even the server doesn't guarantee whether it's a new item or not. Still, that translates to a suboptimal UX so maybe some workaround be acceptable? Generally, the feed item datetimes are correct, so a I was thinking of a per-feed setting like "do not show feed items older than some designated one". Perhaps there's a better solution. I'm curious to hear your thoughts.

I have around ~250 feeds in my yarr instance and I'm experiencing the issue 3+ times a day.

I should add I'm very much aware of https://github.com/nkanaev/yarr/issues/57 but I subjectively see this as an issue, not a new feature. You may have a different opinion of course.

Best regards!

I tried running this service with more than 300 links and out of three times, it crashed twice.

panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
[signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0x0 pc=0x89bd17]

With this patch, it is possible to pass username and password directly on the command line with:

yarr --auth 'username:password'

The corresponding environment variable comes handy with containers:

YARR_AUTH='username:password' yarr

In the unread section, when you scroll down after reading a few articles some of them will not show up.

I could take a shot at trying to fix it and I've thought of two ways this can be fixed.

• The web-ui could request items from a specific offset (instead of by page), which would get decreased for each article read.
• The web-ui could request items after the last item in the list, similar to how reddit handles pagination. This would to somewhat alter the query.

Any thoughts as to which would be better, or maybe a different solution?

Lastly, in rare cases the unread counter can go below 0. I haven't been able to reproduce it consistently and I don't know if it's related to this specific issue. Have you noticed that at all?

How would you feel about the idea of adding keyboard shortcuts? I find them very handy in NetNewsWire. Not asking you to necessarily do the implementation; more curious about your opinion of the capability.

Hi, I understand that #57 means the app is feature complete from your perspective.

That said, I added some features in my branch and I thought it would be nice to at least point them here, in case there's something that interests you. I wouldn't mind making a PR for any of them:

• Setting to enable/disable "Auto mark item as read"
• "Mark all as read" works on all views
• Show "mark all as read" and settings on all views
• Use charset from feeds instead of using the HTTP charset
• Some key-bindings change:
  • previous/next feed with p and n
  • toggle read/unread m

If anything makes sense to you here, please let me know.

If there's no interest in any of them, it's all good. :)

Thanks for the great project.

I am trying to setup dockerized Yarr behind a Nginx reverse proxy. I have two Yarr docker images built right now: v1.4 and v2.0. Both versions work just fine when served directly, without reverse proxy.

Docker image built from tag v1.4 works as expected. Nginx logs when accessing https://yarr.example.com:

With v2.0, when I proceed to https://yarr.example.com, Firefox tries to download application/octet-stream file with a random name, without extension (for example dE9ike23). It seems to be a valid HTML file – see this gist. Nginx logs:

Please let me know if above information is sufficient, or should I include anything else.

Hi, I was reading through your rationale and discovered your initial goal:

a desktop application accessible via web browser

That somehow sparked the question and idea to support yarr as a PWA, adding features like:

• Installable via the webpage
• Have a dedicated app icon
• Proper app feeling, not just a webpage in a browser

Checking pages like pwabuilder.com the minimum requirement would be:

• [ ] A manifest file
• [ ] Service Worker scripts

Have you considered making yarr a PWA?

I could help providing the necessary files, but have honestly no idea how to include them via GO. Anyway, wanted to check with you upfront.

What do you think?

I've been using yarr on Windows and am facing few problems:

1. There is no logging on stdout. I ran yarr.exe from command line and saw no logs. Running yarr.exe -h / --help prints nothing either.

2. I'm unable to bind on any other host/port. When I run yarr.exe -addr 127.0.0.1:7080, the process starts and exits in a moment. Again, there are no logs so I can't see what happened.

3. Once 2 works, I would like to bind to 0.0.0.0:7070 so I can access yarr from other devices on LAN. That will work, right?

• support env

$env:YARR_DATABASE = "D:\software\yarr\storage.db"
$env:YARR_OPENBROWSER = $True
$env:YARR_LOGPATH = "D:\software\yarr\yarr.log"

• save log to file

• support opml file exported from newsflow

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<opml xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" version="1.0">

For high resolution screens (for example, iMac 4.5K display), the sentences are too long to read easily. I think it is good If there are some spaces beside the contents (like Feedbin or Feedly does).

Fever API spec: https://github.com/DigitalDJ/tinytinyrss-fever-plugin/blob/master/fever-api.md

base on fever branch, testing passed with Reeder app on MacOS. Welcome to use more Apps to test fever api.

The infinite scroll doesn't work pressing "down key", it only works with "mouse wheel" or "trackpad" scrolling

Just to explain better

Press down

the selection goes on the top of the list but..

.. if you scroll with the trackpad it loads more posts

I love the whole yarr experience even on mobile but I feel myself wanting to interact with it in a way it doesn't support yet.

I want to implement 3 touch gestures I feel like it could use but I want to know if there is any interest in it.

The three gestures are:

• Swipe down on an open post to close it
• Swipe left on an open post to go to the next post
• Swipe right on an open post to go to the previous post

In essence I just want to add the some of the same functionality granted by keyboard shortcuts on desktop.
