YouTube2FreshRSS

One-Way-Synchronization of your YouTube subscriptions to FreshRSS.

Requirements

Adds YouTube subscriptions as rss-bridge Atom feeds to the category "YouTube" in your FreshRSS instance
Removes YouTube Atom feeds from the YouTube category in FreshRSS if they are (no longer) YouTube subscriptions

I did not implement support for using OAuth2 with Google. Therefore it is only possible to access public resources and this is the reason why the channels subscription lists needs to be public.
Perhaps many more that I don't know/mind at the moment.

Create a new project in the Google Cloud Console and follow the instructions to get an API key
Enable the YouTube bridge in rss-bridge (if necessary)
Copy config.example.json to config.json and fill it out
(optional) Create a Python virtual environment with python3 -m venv venv and activate it
Install Python requirements with pip install -r requirements.txt
Execute the program with python youtube2freshrss.py
(optional) Set up a Cron job for running the run.sh once a day with the working directory as first argument
