RSS Aggregator Project using Golang

This is a simple RSS aggregator project implemented using the Go programming language. The application fetches and aggregates RSS feeds from various sources, providing users with a consolidated view of the latest news and updates.

Features

• Fetches RSS feeds from multiple sources.
• Aggregates the latest news items from different feeds.
• Provides a clean and organized view of the aggregated news.

Installation

1. Make sure you have Go installed on your system. If not, download and install it from the official Go website: https://golang.org/

2. Clone this repository to your local machine:

   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/rss-aggregator.git
   cd rss-aggregator

3. Build the project:

   go build

4. Run the executable:

   ./rss-aggregator

Configuration

The project supports adding new RSS feed sources and customizing the behavior. To configure the aggregator, modify the config.json file:

{
  "feeds": [
    {
      "name": "TechCrunch",
      "url": "https://techcrunch.com/rss"
    },
    {
      "name": "The Verge",
      "url": "https://www.theverge.com/rss/index.xml"
    },
    {
      "name": "BBC News",
      "url": "http://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/rss.xml"
    }
  ],
  "refresh_interval": "30m"
}

• "feeds": Add your desired RSS feed sources with a name and URL. You can include as many feeds as you like.

• "refresh_interval": Set the time interval for refreshing the feeds. The value should be in the format of Go's time.Duration. For example, "30m" stands for 30 minutes.
