Would it be possible to integrate Mercury? about freedbin HOT 8 OPEN

Ahh I did not realise that API had deprecated! It should be possible, I'll look into it a little later this week when I have time

It looks like one of Feedbin's maintainers is already working on it upstream.

Feedbin does indeed use the open-source Mercury project. I'm running it as a separate service since it's a Node.js app. That's also open-source.

I'm thinking of spinning up a AWS Lambda function for it, but it's suboptimal. https://github.com/mahboubii/serverless-mercury-parser

@benubois does your EXTRACT_HOST solution, work right now? What is the EXTRACT_SECRET there?

I'm asking because I use this docker container to run mercury locally for my tt-rss instance.

The way it works right now is pretty straightforward. The following just works on my local instance, without any keys/secret -

Hi @nitinthewiz,

does your EXTRACT_HOST solution, work right now?

Yes! That's what Feedbin uses.

What is the EXTRACT_SECRET there?

That's the secret key to create signed-urls. The readme explains how it works.

OK, sounds like you're all set then.

Excellent! Thanks!

I had some trouble setting up freedbin, so once I got it right, I did a writeup for you all here. I ended up not using @benubois' Extract service, because @rach-sharp's current code doesn't support it. It does, however support a self-hosted Mercury Service, which you can find here.

Cheers!
