Wrong rss item urls

[pablouser1]

Hi, maybe this was related to #56? Can you check if it is now working?

[konopielko]

This is a separate issue - some rss readers require for the entire urls to be present - so instead of "/video" all urls in the rss feed should feature the entire address (with the instance url) - "example.com/video"

This is a separate issue - some rss readers require for the entire urls to be present

That is controlled by the APP_URL env variable

Maybe this has something to do with the Docker deployment method.
Right now Docker sets the default url to '/' which does work for HTML, but doesn't for those rss readers.

A workaround for this can be setting a custom env variable before using docker-compose, like:

APP_URL='https://example.com' docker-compose up

If the instance is using the manual deploy method, it should set that env variable on the .env file

Sounds like thats it - could you try that on the official instance? If that works than it would also be great to it add to the wiki

[pablouser1]

could you try that on the official instance

The official instance already has the correct APP_URL env, so it should work.

it would also be great to it add to the wiki

You're right, I'll add a warning for Docker users on the wiki

This is not fixed. It’s still not working in the iOS reeder app.

[pablouser1]

I think it is now fixed, now the whole url is shown instead of only the path.

@pabloscloud can you confirm it works now on your iOS app?

[pabloscloud]

It doesn’t. I’m using Reeder on iOS and macOS and it doesn’t work in NetNewsWire either

Same here, I also checked with News Explorer - and the feed on the official instance still provides only partial urls:
src="/stream?url=…
Instead of:
src="https://proxitok.herokuapp.com/stream?url=…

[pablouser1]

I've forgot to add the APP_URL env variable to the official instance... now it shows the whole url

[konopielko]

It works! Thank you ☺️

[pabloscloud]

Yes, works now
