LinkdingSync is a collection of tools that make life with Linkding easier.
One of the workers is for syncing to Wallabag.
It is recommended to use the Docker images. Otherwise, a .NET 8 environment is required to customize and build the code.
For the containers to work, the environment variables must be passed. This can be done either directly via the Docker run -e switch, via the environment settings in a Docker compose definition, or via an environment variable file.
Environment variables for the wallabag worker.
Variable | Value | Description | Attention |
---|---|---|---|
Worker__Interval | int (>=0) | This value sets the execution schedule in minutes. 1 = every minute, 10 = every 10 minutes (default value 0) | 0 = runs only one time. The container will be stopped after the execution. This method is the preferred way to run the container with a scheduler (e.g. cron) |
Worker__SyncTag | text | The linkding tag to create the bookmarks in Wallabag. (default value 'readlater') | |
Linkding__Url | text | URL to the linkding instance | |
Linkding__Key | text | The linkding application key | Instructions |
Wallabag__Url | text | URL to the Wallabag instance | |
Wallabag__Username | text | Wallabag User Name | |
Wallabag__Password | text | Wallabag User Password | |
Wallabag__ClientId | text | Wallabag Client Id | |
Wallabag__ClientSecret | text | Wallabag Client Secret |
Environment variables for the linkding worker.
Variable | Value | Description | Attention |
---|---|---|---|
Worker__Interval | int (>=0) | This value sets the execution schedule in minutes. 1 = every minute, 10 = every 10 minutes | 0 = runs only one time. The container will be stopped after the execution. This method is the preferred way to run the container with a scheduler (e.g. cron) |
Worker__Worker__TagNameLength | int | The max tag name length. Default is 64 characters | |
Worker__Tasks__X | text | The tasks which should be executed. X is the array index for the tasks entry | currently supported tasks: AddPopularSitesAsTag,AddYearToBookmark. |
Linkding__Url | text | URL to the linkding instance | |
Linkding__Key | text | The linkding application key | Instructions |
Tasks define the logic that directly make changes to the bookmarks. Currently available tasks:
Name | Description |
---|---|
AddYearToBookmark | If the bookmark does not have the year of the creation date as a tag, it will be added. |
AddPopularSitesAsTag | This is the task for dynamic creation of tags. For this task to work, the rules must be passed to the container as configuration. |
The tasks are defined as environment variables, if no tasks are defined, the container will be executed but no changes will be made. The tasks are passed as follows:
version: '3.9'
services:
linkdingupdater:
image: ghcr.io/spaytac/linkding-updater:latest
volumes:
- ./config.yml:/app/data/config.yml
# env_file:
# - .env
environment:
- Worker__Interval=0
- Worker__TagNameLength=64
- Worker__Tasks__0=AddPopularSitesAsTag
- Worker__Tasks__1=AddYearToBookmark
- Linkding__Url=https://<url>
- Linkding__Key=<secret>
The following explains the configuration options. The Configuration file must be mapped to /app/data/config.yml
The configuration is optional. In the configuration (YAML File) rules can be defined in regex to exclude certain domains from sync.
Exampel:
excludedDomains:
- name: youtube
pattern: 'https://[[a-zA-Z0-9]+\.]?(youtube)\.com(?:/.*)?'
- name: ebay
pattern: 'https://[[a-zA-Z0-9]+\.]?(ebay)\.(com|de|fr)(?:/.*)?'
- name: amazon
pattern: 'https://[[a-zA-Z0-9]+\.]?(amazon)\.(com|de|fr)(?:/.*)?'
With this configuration every matching bookmark from linkding will be excluded from the sync.
The configuration is optional. In the configuration (YAML File) rules can be defined in regex to assign tags dynamically. Additionally tags can be defined to domains.
If operated without a configuration file, only the year of the tag is added (currently).
Example:
urlTagMapping:
- name: microsoft_azure
url: https://github.com/azure
- name: microsoft_azuread
url: https://github.com/AzureAD
- name: microsoft_dotnet
url: https://github.com/dotnet-architecture
taggingRule:
- name: reddit
pattern: https://(?:www\.)?(reddit)\.com(?:/r/)?([a-zA-Z0-9\-\+_]+)?(?:/.*)?
replace: $1,$2
- name: microsoft
pattern: https://([a-zA-Z0-9]+)?[\.]?(microsoft)\.com(?:/.*)?
replace: $1,$2
- name: microsoft_docs
pattern: 'https://(?:docs)\.(?:microsoft)\.com[/]?(?: [a-zA-Z0-9\-\+_]+)(?:/)?([a-zA-Z0-9\-\+_]+)?(?:/)?([a-zA-Z0-9\-\+_]+)?(?:/.*)?'
replace: $1,$2
- name: youtube
pattern: https://[[a-zA-Z0-9]+\.]?(youtube)\.com(?:/.*)?
replace: $1
- name: ebay
pattern: https://[[a-zA-Z0-9]+\.]?(ebay)\.(com|de|fr)(?:/.*)?
replace: $1
- name: amazon
pattern: https://[[a-zA-Z0-9]+\.]?(amazon)\.(com|de|fr)(?:/.*)?
replace: $1
- name: docker
pattern: https://([a-zA-Z0-9]+)?[\.]?(docker)\.com(?:/.*)?
replace: $1,$2
- name: xbox
pattern: https://[[a-zA-Z0-9]+\.]?(xbox)\.com(?:/.*)?
replace: $1
- name: github
pattern: https://([a-zA-Z0-9]+)?[\.]?(github)\.com[/]?([a-zA-Z0-9\-\+_]+)(?:/)?([a-zA-Z0-9\-\+_]+)?(?:/.*)?
replace: $1,$2,$3,$4
- name: github.io
pattern: https://([a-zA-Z0-9]+)\.(github)\.io[/]?([a-zA-Z0-9\-\+_]+)(?:/)?([a-zA-Z0-9\-\+_]+)?(?:/.*)?
replace: $1,$2,$3
If the bookmark should match one - or more - of the urlTagMappings, then value of name is added as tag to this bookmark.
Example: https://github.com/azure/something will be tagged with microsoft_azure
Dynamic tags can be assigned to the bookmarks on the basis of the URL using regular expression. If one of the patterns matches, the values of the groups are added to the bookmark as a tag.
Example: Here is an example using a reddit bookmark. Url:
https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/yzq6qp/running_a_mostly_sbcbased_nomad_cluster_in_my/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=2&utm_content=share_button
Pattern:
https://(?:www\.)?(reddit)\.com(?:/r/)?([a-zA-Z0-9\-\+_]+)?(?:/.*)?
Matches:
if you would change the pattern to the following. Pattern:
https://(?:www\.)?(reddit)\.com(?:/)?(r/[a-zA-Z0-9\-\+_]+)?(?:/.*)?
then the following would match.
docker run --rm -it --env-file .env -v <path>/config.yml:/app/data/config.yml ghcr.io/spaytac/linkding-updater:latest
