You read hundreds of articles a week, yet a month later you can’t find a single one. Readine Sync is an Obsidian plugin that saves articles from your feeds into your vault automatically. Markdown with metadata, customizable templates, and your local edits are never overwritten.
Manual copying: highlight, copy, paste into Obsidian, format. Five minutes per article. Ten articles a day and you’ve lost an hour you could have spent working.
A stack of three apps (reader + Readwise + Obsidian) is expensive and breaks at the seams. Every time one service updates, the whole chain is at risk.
Feedly and Inoreader have no Obsidian export. The best you get is Zapier or IFTTT — another subscription and a fragile automation chain.
Readine Sync is an Obsidian plugin. Install it from the community plugin catalog or manually in under a minute.
Setup: open Readine, go to Settings, open the Obsidian section, and generate a code. In Obsidian, paste the code and click Connect. Done.
By default, all articles from your feeds are synced. If you only want to keep the important ones, turn on the starred filter: star an article in Readine and only starred articles will appear in your vault.
Sync is one-way: articles flow from Readine to your vault. If you edit a note in Obsidian, the plugin will not overwrite it. Local edit protection is on by default.
Articles are saved as Markdown with metadata: title, date, original link, tags, notes. An alternative HTML format is also available.
The file path is set by a template. For example: Readine/feed name/year-month/title.md. Your vault structure is entirely up to you.
Refresh runs on a schedule: from every 5 minutes to once every 24 hours. You can also sync manually at any time.
Old articles can be cleaned up automatically after 7, 30, 90, or 365 days.
Network filter: you can restrict sync to Wi-Fi only to save mobile data.
— Does the export cost money?
— Yes, export is a paid module. You pay for export specifically, without overpaying for features you don’t need.
— Will my edits in notes get overwritten?
— If you edited a file in Obsidian, the plugin will not touch it. Local edit protection is on by default.
— Can I save only starred articles?
— Yes. Turn on the starred filter in the plugin settings — only articles you starred in Readine will appear in your vault.
— Does it work on mobile Obsidian?
— Yes. The plugin supports both desktop and mobile Obsidian.
