inspired by [rss-is-dead.lol][rss-dead], i decided to start self-hosting an RSS reader.
|
|
the one i deployed is [Miniflux][miniflux], "a minimalist and opinionated feed reader".
|
|
it's not clear to me what its opinions are, but i do like the simple pinboardesque
|
|
interface.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
i deployed it using the [Helm chart][miniflux-helm] provided by Gabe365. this chart
|
|
seems to be part of the splintering of `k8s-at-home`. it does the trick, but i had to
|
|
work around a few issues:
|
|
|
|
1. ingress configuration is unusual; especially i had to explictly provide a `seceretName`
|
|
to `tls` configuration.
|
|
1. getting postgres configured without including the password in `values.yaml` was a
|
|
little challenging. i had to use `existingSecret` (which is supported by the upstream
|
|
bitnami chart), but using it in the existing chart required:
|
|
- the existing seceret be named according to a specific pattern
|
|
`{{ $.Release.Name }}-postgresql`;
|
|
- [provide a dummy `postgresql.auth.password`][miniflux-code] to avoid the
|
|
`miniflux` chart using the admin password
|
|
|
|
{{< code-details summary="`values.yaml`" lang="yaml" details=`
