How Can We Generate RSS Feeds?

Waterhole seems to have the capability to generate RSS feeds.
How can we achieve this?
Or is this a feature that will be available in the future?

Waterhole exposes an RSS feed for all posts (as you've linked), and each channel (e.g. https://waterhole.dev/community/channels/blog/posts.rss). In the future we may add feeds for comments/specific posts too.

Oh, my bad.
The posts.rss returning a 404 error was because of a misconfiguration in Nginx.
It's fixed now. Thanks!

Also, I set UTF-8 in RssController.php, and everything is working great.

return response($feed->export('rss'), 200, ['Content-Type' => 'application/rss+xml; charset=UTF-8']);

Hey,

I think I am having the same issue with RSS like you. What did you change in Nginx configuration?

0xZero,

The default configuration of Waterhole should not have any issues.
The reason I encountered this problem was that, for security reasons, I set up some file reading rules that caused the RSS to be blocked.
After removing or modifying the security policy, everything worked fine.

Something like the following:

location ~ /\.(?:git|svn|rss|log|bak|sql|sh)$ {
    deny all;
}
