+# Neko
+
+RSS Reader focused on cat ears mode
+
+*the cat ears are in your mind*
+
+## Huh?
+
+I decided I didn't like the [old version that was python and mongo](https://github.com/adammathes/neko_v1) so rewrote the backend in Go and sql and wanted to learn some Go. So assume the code is bad since I don't know what I'm doing.
+
+The javascript frontend is still the same, I might rewrite that too since it's old backbone.js code.
+
+Uh, this is not very easy to use/setup/or anything. Consider it WIP.
+
+## Installation
+
+1. [Install golang](https://golang.org)
+
+2. Set up $GOPATH if one doesn't exist already
+
+    $ mkdir $HOME/go
+    $ export GOPATH=$HOME/go
+    
+3. Get neko code
+   
+   $ go get github.com/adammathes/neko 
+
+4. Get dependencies
+
+    $ cd $HOME/go/src/github.com/adammathes/neko
+    $ make deps
+    OR 
+    $ go get [each dependency]
+    
+    Great job
+
+5. Build binaries
+
+    $ go build cmd/nekoweb
+    $ go build cmd/nekocrawl
+
+    This should create "nekoweb" and "nekocrawl" binaries
+
+
+6. Create MySQL table and user
+
+    ```sh $ msyqladmin -uroot -p create neko
+    $ mysql -uroot -p neko < init.sql
+    $ echo "probably a good idea to make a limited privilege user"
+    $ mysql -uroot -p neko
+    CREATE USER 'neko'@'localhost' identified by 'password' yourgreatpasswordhere;
+    GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON neko.* TO 'neko'@'localhost';
+    ```
+    
+7. Configuration - copy example configuration and edit as needed
+
+    $ cp config.example config.json
+    
+8. Run web
+
+    $ ./nekoweb config.json
+    
+    Load URL/port specified in config. Add feeds
+    
+9. Run Crawler
+
+    $ ./nekocrawl config.json
+    
+10. Operationalize
+
+    [ add to cron ]
+    [ add daemon for server ]
