+Logs into Nebula as the configured user, fetches available videos, and generates an RSS feed. No feed will be generated, if less than *feed_cache_time_seconds* seconds (set in config.json) have elapsed since last running this script.
+
+Requirements
+============
+
+The following are needed to run this script:
+- Python, version 3.8 to 3.10: I have tested 3.8.10 and 3.10.0. Older versions might work, but 3.6 is a hard minimum
+- Firefox: It should be fairly easy to switch to Chrome instead, `nebula_loader.py` has a few references to Firefox which one would need to alter
+- [Geckodriver](https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases/) is needed to remote-control Firefox. The executable should be in your path, it's possible to specify the path to the binary in the config file. Replace with ChromeDriver for Chrome
+- [Poetry](https://python-poetry.org): Not a hard requirement, I have included a requirements.txt which can be used to install dependencies with `pip install -r requirements.txt`
+. I haven't tested this, and the list is auto-generated by poetry, using python 3.10
+
+Installation
+============
+
+- Download or clone the repository.
+- If you are using poetry, run `poetry install` in the `nebula-rss` directory.
+- If you are not using poetry, run `pip install -r requirements.txt`. If that doesn't work, try manually installing the dependencies listed in `pyproject.toml`
+- Copy `config_default.json` to `config.json`
+
+Usage
+=====
+
+This assume you are inside the folder `nebula-rss`.
+
+First, configure your username and password in `config.json`. You should also set your feed url and possibly adjust the path to the output file which will be generated.
+Run `poetry run python main.py` to generate your feed. Alternatively, run `chmod +x ./main.py` to mark it as executable and then run `poetry run ./main.py`.
+If you a not using poetry, run `python main.py` directly, or mark `main.py` as executable and run `./main.py`.
+
+You will likely want to run the script regularly, to update the feed. I'm using the following crontab `* 0 * * * cd $HOME/nebula-rss; $HOME/.local/bin/poetry run ./main.py`, so that it runs once an hour.
+
+I have not tested this on windows, but it should work without issues.
+
+Notes
+=====
+
+This is an extremely hacky solution and basically loads the Nebula homepage, logs in, goes to "My Library" and loads the list of videos. Naturally, this may break at any time, e.g. every time Nebula changes their layout slightly.
+Right after finishing this, I found a way to directly load the list of videos:
+
+    curl 'https://content.watchnebula.com/library/video/?page=1' \
+    -X 'GET' \
+    -H 'Accept: application/json, text/plain, */*' \
+    -H 'Origin: https://nebula.app' \
+    -H 'Referer: https://nebula.app/' \
+    -H 'Accept-Language: en-GB,en;q=0.9' \
+    -H 'Host: content.watchnebula.com' \
+    -H 'User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/15.2 Safari/605.1.15' \
+    -H 'Authorization: Bearer ADD_TOKEN_HERE' \
+    -H 'Connection: keep-alive' \
+    -H 'Nebula-Platform: web'
+
+
+When I get around to implementing this (that is: logging in, reading the authorisation token, and then parsing the result) I might switch to this instead, should be more stable.
