Miniflux

Miniflux is a minimalist and opinionated feed reader.

This description sums up Miniflux pretty well. It's very simple to setup and operate, yet does exactly what it's supposed to: it manages RSS feeds.

Environment variables

Not much configuration is required by default to get things up and running.

For the database, you have the usual PostgreSQL stuff:

  • POSTGRES_DB: database name
  • POSTGRES_USER: main user of the database
  • POSTGRES_PASSWORD: password for main user

For Miniflux, I used the following defaults:

  • DATABASE_URL: this URL defines how to connect to the database. It follows the form postgres://POSTGRES_USER:POSTGRES_PASSWORD@db/POSTGRES_DB?sslmode=disable
  • RUN_MIGRATIONS: this lets Miniflux auto-migrate the database when needed (this is especially useful during initial startup)
  • CREATE_ADMIN: this allows us to create an admin account using env vars
  • ADMIN_USERNAME: admin username
  • ADMIN_PASSWORD: admin password

Miniflux has many other variables you can set, which you can find here.
