RSS / atom feed support

[hugo-akaora]

Hello,

Would be great to be able to turn a folder of media files into a RSS / atom feed for syncing with an app (e.g: AntennaPod on Android).

In rust's world, I found https://github.com/passy/podserve

Thank you for audioserve :)

Check rss branch - there is initial version of RSS support (also audioserve-web has rss branch - it adds icon with RSS link).
RSS link is very similar to folder link - http://<audioserve_host_port>/<collection_num>/feed/path/to/folder (so it's feed instead of folder).
Audioserve must be run with --url-base argument - as server does not know published URL and absolute URLs are needed for RSS. Also to consume RSS in exterternal apps audioserve should run without authentication - e.g. --no-authentication argument. Also as cache structure has changed run audioserve with --force-cache-update - at least one time.

Feedback is welcomed, as I'll not use this functionality myself much.

Hello, thank you, that looks great! I'll dedicate time next week to try it (I'm not familiar yet with building audioserve nor audioserve-web).

Not using authentification is not a trouble for me at all, as my audioserve instance will not be available on Internet. Actually it's better for me that way :)
