This RSS Feeder Application is a backend service designed using Spring Boot. It incorporates the ROME library to fetch and process RSS feeds efficiently, providing users with regularly updated content from various sources in a streamlined format.
- Fetch RSS Feeds: Automatically retrieves RSS feed data from specified URLs to keep the content fresh and up-to-date.
- Process Feeds: Leverages the ROME library to parse the incoming feeds and format them into a user-friendly structure.
- Cache Management: Uses Redis to cache feed data, which enhances the response times and reduces the frequency of API calls, ensuring efficient performance even under load.
Before setting up the project, ensure you have the following installed:
- Java JDK 11 or higher – Required to run the Spring Boot application.
- Maven 3.6 or higher – Necessary for building the application.
- Redis server – Used for caching purposes to optimize performance.
This project is currently in an early stage of development and includes some basic functionalities. There is substantial work to be done to enhance its capabilities and performance. Future updates will focus on expanding features, improving user interface, and refining the back-end processes.
