Simple feed aggregator + search, focusing on developer / academic blogs.
You will need a Redis server running locally for storage.
Usage:
rake feeds:create Creating the default feeds
rake feeds:update Updating the feeds
rake feeds:latest Display last 15 headlines
rake feeds:add url=URL Add url to the feeds
rake feeds:update_search Send all entries to Solr, running on localhost:8080
rake pdf:latest Display latest PDF links
rake pdf:download Download the PDFs into the downloads/ directory
ruby aggir_server.rb (if you want to start a simple local instance of Sinatra)
http://localhost:4567
Requirements :
rfeedparser ( http://github.com/jmhodges/rfeedparser/tree/master ) (Needs to be built)
Redis ( http://code.google.com/p/redis/ )
For A Simple Web UI:
sinatra
haml
For Testing:
Shoulda ( http://thoughtbot.com/projects/shoulda )
FlexMock
For Solr:
Solr ( http://lucene.apache.org/solr/ )
Tomcat (http://tomcat.apache.org)
You will need to grab Tomcat / Solr. Put the solr_config/aggir.xml into $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/. You'll need to update the solr_config/aggir.xml to point to the correct paths. Soon, you'll be able to just set variables for this.
