# rss-email
Fetch new RSS feed items and send them via E-Mail.
## Compiling
Install the dependencies:
- Rust
- [cargo-sqlx](https://github.com/launchbadge/sqlx/tree/main/sqlx-cli#install)
- scdoc (optional)
First specify the `DATABASE_URL` environment variable and set up the database
with `cargo-sqlx`:
```
export DATABASE_URL='./dev.db'
cargo sqlx database setup
```
Then compile `rss-email`:
```
cargo build
```
To build the man page, use `scdoc`:
```
scdoc < docs/rss-email.1.scd > docs/rss-email.1
```
## Usage
- Copy the `config.example.toml` to `~/rss-email/config.toml` and adjust the
values
- Create a `urls` file at `~/rss-email/urls` with one RSS url per line
The database used with `rss-email` is generated automatically if it doesn't exist
yet
See the man page or `-h` for more info. You can view the man page after
generating it with `scdoc` with `man -l docs/rss-email.1`.

## Making changes on the database
When making changes on the database, make sure that:
- a migration is created in the `migrations` folder with `cargo sqlx migrate add
-r $MIGRATION_DESCRIPTION`
- `sqlx-data.json` is up to date by issuing `cargo sqlx prepare`
