## Why I specified but not really for getting the feeds
As it turns out what I wanted could be better accomplished by self hosting an [Invidious](https://github.com/iv-org/invidious) instance. However my weird format that I had of my subs wouldn't work and I didn't want to redo filtering out channels I don't want so I decided to make a script that would make an opml file which is one of the file types that invidious could import. To do that I wrote a rust script.

format!("<outline text=\"{}\" title=\"{}\" type=\"rss\" xmlUrl=\"/feed/channel/{}\"/>",name,name,id)
}
```
tldr on that whole bunch of code is I have a constant string as the start of the file which gets output. Then there's a middle that's generated from the list of channels in that weird format the previous script generated such that every entry gets put into the template `<outline text=$channel_name title=$channel_name type="rss" xmlUrl="/feed/channel/$channel_id"/>"` and then all the channel entries are joined together. After that I put a constant value as the end to close everything up. Developing that script there was a bit of a hiccup where Invidious wouldn't take it because the channel name only had the first word due to me making an initial mistake which I eventually fixed.

### Wait what about hosting an Invidious instance?
Oh yeah I should probably summarize that process. I tweaked a config file in a couple of places so it fitted my particular use case. I added entries to my /etc/sites-enabled/ and my dns, then ran certbot. After that with a simple `docker-compose up -d` with the provided docker-compose.yml file and it worked without anything worth commenting on happening.

## Conclusion
So that was a lot of words to describe something that only took maybe 6 hours altoegether over a couple days. That said I hope to do a bit more to keep myself on task, specifically I want to setup a discord bot that will dm me the tasks that I have in google tasks(which is why I mentioned doing that youtube api automation end up saving me time) and notion every day and my larger goals each week. So that'll be an interesting short little project when I find the time. Then once that's done I can finally return to my little overengineered todo list [Pogo](/blog/pogo_so_far) where I scrapped the very small amount of code I wrote following the spec I wrote in a previous blog and will probably implement in Erlang instead. Though before any of that I need to make a blog post ranting about serenity and give into implementing a bad fix to a problem their api caused. But after all that I can continue work on that libvirt util in Lisp. Anyways with all of that rambling out of the way I wish the reader of this a nice day.
