Transsmute

Transsmute (transmute + RSS) is a server written in Go that builds RSS feeds for websites that don't provide them.

Currently, the following feed types are supported:

• YouTube (channel, playlist)
• Twitter (user)
• Container registries (DockerHub, ghcr.io)

Installation

Transsmute can be installed as a container (suggested) or as a compiled binary.

Docker

A Docker container is available at ghcr.io/gabe565/transsmute. The containerized version of Transsmute will run on port 80 by default, and accepts all configuration as flags or as environment variables. See Configuration for more info.

docker run --rm -it -p 80:80 ghcr.io/gabe565/transsmute

Alternatively, an example docker-compose.yml file is provided.

A Helm chart is available for Kubernetes deployment. For more information, see charts.gabe565.com or Artifact Hub.
