Self-host Banditore

Banditore is a self-hosted PHP application built with Symfony that connects to your GitHub account via OAuth, retrieves your starred repositories, and periodically checks for new releases or tags. It generates a personal Atom feed you can subscribe to in any feed reader, providing a quiet, pull-based notification system for software updates. The application requires PHP 8.2+, MySQL 5.7+, and Redis for caching GitHub API requests. RabbitMQ and Supervisor are optional for scaling to multiple users via a queue-based worker system. Installation is done by cloning the repository, registering a GitHub OAuth application, installing Composer dependencies, setting up the database schema, and running the built-in PHP server or a proper web server. Two sync modes are supported: simple cron jobs for single-user instances, or RabbitMQ-backed workers for multi-user deployments. A status endpoint at /status provides health monitoring data. The project is licensed under MIT and actively maintained with the latest release 6.0.0 in September 2025.
