Build an RSS subscription robot

Apply for a robot

First of all, you need to apply for a Telegram robot. It is very simple. Talk directly to the father of Telegram robots (@BotFather), send /newbot to it, and then enter the name of your robot. Note that it needs to end with bot (for example, mine is vpsgo_bot) , then your robot will be created (https://t.me/vpsgo_bot) and an HTTP API TOKEN will be given to you:

Build RSS subscription

The RSS subscription robot built is based on the open source software rssbot, an open source Telegram RSS robot, project address: https://github.com/iovxw/rssbot.

Execute the following commands in sequence and replace the TELEGRAM-BOT-TOKEN in the third command with the HTTP API TOKEN of the robot you just applied for:

wget https://github.com/iovxw/rssbot/releases/download/v1.4.4/rssbot-v1.4.4-linux.zip unzip rssbot-v1.4.4-linux.zip ./rssbot DATAFILE TELEGRAM-BOT-TOKEN

After the test is completed and there are no problems, you can use the nohub command to let the robot run in the background: nohup ./rssbot DATAFILE TELEGRAM-BOT-TOKEN > /dev/null 2>&1 &.

Subscription website

The instructions for rssbot are as follows:

/rss - Display the RSS list of current subscriptions, add the raw parameter to display the link /sub - Subscribe to an RSS: /sub http://example.com/feed.xml /unsub - Unsubscribe from an RSS: /unsub http://example.com/feed.xml /unsubthis - Use this command to reply to the RSS message you want to unsubscribe to unsubscribe. Channel is not supported. /export - Export to OPML

Personal subscription

If it is a personal subscription (RSS information will be sent to you in a private message), talk to the robot directly and send /sub https://www.vpsgo.com/feed:

Channel subscription

If you want to send RSS information to a channel, first add the robot to the channel as an administrator. This article takes the channel @vpsgo as an example. After adding it, talk to the robot directly and send /sub @ vpsgo https:/ /www.vpsgo.com/feed：

Finally, everyone is welcome to subscribe to the RSS channel of this site: https://t.me/vpsgo, and don’t miss out on every VPS discount!
