gof

gof is a command-line utility to post RSS/Atom feeds to the fediverse. It has first-class support for Pleroma, and thus should support Mastodon, too...

gof is for "go feediverse", "go fediverse", "go fedi", or really whatever you want. gof is a port of feediverse written in Go.

gof supports multiple feeds and multiple accounts.

requirements

• Go 1.16

usage

Before you can start using gof, you'll need to configure it. An example configuration can be found here. You can also just copy the example:

$ cd $REPO
$ cp gof.yaml.example gof.yaml
$ vim gof.yaml # don't forget to edit it!

You'll need an access token as well. You can get on from the Pleroma Access Token Generator.

Build the thing:

$ go build

Then you can use it:

$ ./gof

You could also specify the configuration file to use via the command line:

$ ./gof -c /path/to/your/gof.yaml

This would allow you to place the executable (and configuration) anywhere on your system. Once gof is configured, you might want to add it to your crontab:

*/30 * * * * cd /path/to/$REPO; gof

post format

You can specify how the message looks. The variables you have to work with are `URL`, `Title`, and `Summary`. You don't have to use all variables.

An example template:

template: '{{.Title}}: {{.URL}}'

If you want the message to include line breaks, use YAML's multiline syntax:

template: |-
  {{.Title}}

  {{.URL}}

Formatted posts are also supported. You can choose from plaintext, Markdown, HTML, or BBCode, as long as they’re supported by your Pleroma instance.

template: |-
  **{{.Title}}**

  > {{.Summary}}

  {{.URL}}
format: markdown
