comitium

comitium is a Gemini feed aggregator that supports Atom, RSS, JSON, and Gemini feeds, as well as tracking page changes. Inspired by gmisub, Lagrange’s built-in feeds, gemreader and many others.

Comitium means “gathering” or “assembly” in latin.

usage

See comitium help for basic usage. For more advanced usage, see comitium(1) and the quickstart page.

why another aggregator?

There's many gemini aggregators out there, and yet not one does everything I want it to. I want an aggregator that:

works with gemini (and possibly gopher & http)
supports atom (and possibly rss & json)
supports gemini feeds
can watch for page changes (and possibly watch for new gemtext headers as well)
doesn't tie me to a specific browser/service; i.e. trivially self-hostable, ideally as cgi or static pages that can use an existing server setup.

All of the aggregators always have really cool features (that I may or may not even use) and yet all (that I've found) don't meet one or more of these criterion. Hence, going and writing my own.

building

Dependencies:

go (module-aware)
scdoc

Then do the standard:

$ make
# make install

A note to packagers (yes, I'm ambitious aren't I?): make sure to build with make COMMIT=tarball, otherwise there will be an issue when building in a non–git-repo.
