# Miniflux
|
|
> [Miniflux](https://miniflux.app/) 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
|
|
