Installation

Ubuntu


Two requirements: **Mongodb** and **Python**.

In order to install leselys you'll need some dependencies: ::

  sudo apt-get install build-essential python-dev python-setuptools
  sudo apt-get install libxslt1-dev libxml2-dev
  sudo easy_install pip
  sudo easy_install virtualenv

And install your `MongoDB`_.

This is the right way, with ``virtualenv``:

::

  mkdir leselys && cd leselys
  virtualenv .
  source bin/activate
  pip install leselys
  leselys init leselys.ini
  leselys serve leselys.ini
  # In another terminal (in leselys directory)
  source bin/activate
  leselys worker leselys.ini

Open your browser at ``http://localhost:5000``.


Docker

Setting up with Docker <https://www.docker.com/> is easy. There is no published images on the Docker Hub <https://hub.docker.com/> yet but here's how to build a set of images easily and quickly using Docker Compose <https://docs.docker.com/compose/>_::

git clone https://github.com/prologic/leselys
cd leselys
git checkout dockerize
docker-compose up -d

With the configuration in docker-compose.yml you can then visit:

http://localhost:5000/ if you're on a native Linux Docker host or http://$(docker-machine ip dev):5000/ if you're on OS X via boot2docker or similar.

Heroku ~~~~~~

Advanced setup with MongoDB for storage and Redis for session on Heroku. You will also need the Heroku Scheduler add-on to refresh your feeds.

All Heroku dependencies like Pymongo, gunicorn and redis are in requirements.txt file, so everything will be installed automagically.

git clone git@github.com:socketubs/leselys.git cd leselys heroku create heroku addons:add mongohq:sandbox heroku addons:add redistogo:nano heroku addons:add scheduler:standard heroku addons:open scheduler # Add "sh heroku.sh && leselys refresh heroku.ini" job every 10 minutes # And "sh heroku.sh && leselys retention heroku.ini" job every day git push heroku master

Import your Google Reader OPML file right now!

Update

This is how to update your Leselys (on Heroku): ::

git pull git push heroku master heroku restart

And for the pip way, you just have to go to your virtualenv and run pip install leselys -U and restart Leselys processes.

Misc

Storage and session backends are Python modules, you can easily write your own. Take a look at the MongoDB storage backend_.

Leselys automagically fetch new stories with it's refresher worker, and automagically (again), purge our stories database with it's retention task.

Python 3 support is available, there is just worker with celery which doesn't work correctly. You can schedule the task with refresh and retention commands. Python 3 is automatically used on Heroku.
