feed2social

Sync feed to social networks.

Platforms are supported

• Bluesky
• Facebook
• Plurk

Config

The ~/.config/feed2social/config.ini file:

[default]
bluesky_username = username.bsky.social
bluesky_password = x
facebook_username = username
feed_url = https://abpe.org/@gslin.rss
plurk_app_key = x
plurk_app_secret = x
plurk_token = x
plurk_token_secret = x

The facebook_username is used for generating the url https://www.facebook.com/${facebook_username}.

Install

pip install -r requirements.txt
echo "CREATE TABLE entry (entry_id VARCHAR, created_at INT);" | sqlite3 ~/.config/feed2social/feed2bluesky.sqlite3
echo "CREATE TABLE entry (entry_id VARCHAR, created_at INT);" | sqlite3 ~/.config/feed2social/feed2facebook.sqlite3
echo "CREATE TABLE entry (entry_id VARCHAR, created_at INT);" | sqlite3 ~/.config/feed2social/feed2plurk.sqlite3

Run

Just run it periodically (usually with crontab):

./feed2bluesky.py
./feed2facebook.py
./feed2plurk.py

We also support package manager environment like pyenv or mise, via shell script wrappers:

./feed2bluesky.sh
./feed2facebook.sh
./feed2plurk.sh

Workarounds

Currently plurk_oauth requires distutils, which has been deprecated in Python 3.10, and has been removed in Python 3.12, so we have added setuptools as requirement, which adds distutils back (at least for now, not sure how long it will continue to support distutils compatibility).

Notes

If you trace our codebase, you will notice that we have copied many same code across all Python scripts. This is done intentionally, to keep every script runnable independently.
