Features

  1. RSS Feed Parsing: It fetches news articles from RSS feeds using the feedparser library.

  2. Article Content Extraction: It extracts the full content of each article from the web pages using the requests library.

  3. Text Summarization: It summarizes the extracted article content using the Cohere API.

  4. Database Storage: It stores the article details, including the title, author, publication date, link, full content, and summarized content, in a SQLite database.

  5. Web Interface: It offers a web interface using Flask, allowing users to view and interact with the collected news articles. It offers Light and Dark Themes and Custom Themes.

Getting Started

To run this application locally, follow these steps:

Clone this repository to your local machine or download the zip file and extract it to your preferred location.

git clone https://github.com/Quantlight/AI-Powered-News-Summarizer

Install the required Python libraries by running:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Create .env file in root directory of your project folder and add this

API-KEY=YOUR-API-KEY

Obtain a Cohere API key and replace "YOUR-API-KEY" in the code with your actual API key.

Prepare an OPML file (e.g., "news_links.opml") with the RSS feed URLs you want to fetch articles from. Run the Flask application:

python summarizer.py

The application should now be accessible locally in your web browser.

Usage

Start the application as described in the "Getting Started" section.

Access the web interface by navigating to http://localhost:5000/ or http://127.0.0.1:5000 in your web browser.

The application will fetch articles from the RSS feeds specified in the "news_links.opml" file and display them on the web page.

Enjoy your News Summaries.
