rss2maildir

Introduction

rss2maildir takes rss feeds and creates a maildir of messages for each of the feeds, new items become "new", updated entries get redelivered as new messages. Each feed becomes it's own maildir which can be named as you like.

Installation

Clone this repository or download the ZIP archive. Then run:

./setup.py install

to install the Python package and the command-line tool.

Usage

Configuration

Create a config file containing the feeds and their "names" - the names will be used as the directory name of the maildir for the feed. A complete example can be found at rss2maildir.conf.example:

[general]
state_dir = "/path/to/a/writtable/directory/to/write/state/to"
maildir_root = "/path/to/directory/to/write/maildirs/in"

[http://path/to/a/rss/feed/]
maildir = "name of folder to put mail in"
  • The state_dir in the general section defaults to the current working directory + state.
  • The maildir_root defaults to the current working directory + RSSMaildir.
  • It doesn't really matter where you save the config file.

Execution

During installation, setup.py should have installed the command-line utility rss2maildir into your path. Executing:

rss2maildir -c ./path/to/your.config

will look for new feed items and place them into the maildirs. In order to recieve new items into your maildirs, you need to execute it regularly.
