Liferea - GTK desktop news aggregator
Liferea (Linux Feed Reader) is an aggregator for online
news feeds. It can be used to maintain a list of subscribed feeds, browse
and search through their items and displays their contents. Additionally
Liferea allows one to sync subscriptions and read headlines with online
accounts of TinyTinyRSS and TheOldReader.
Liferea options:
- -v, --version
- Print version information and exit
- -h, --help
- Display a option overview and exit
- -a,
--add-feed=URI
- Add a new subscription URI which can be a feed or website URL
- -w,
--mainwindow-state=STATE
- Start Liferea with its mainwindow in STATE: shown, iconified, hidden
- --debug-all
- Print debugging messages of all types
- --debug-cache
- Print debugging messages for the cache handling
- --debug-conf
- Print debugging messages of the configuration handling
- --debug-gui
- Print debugging messages of all GUI functions
- --debug-html
- Enables HTML rendering debugging. Each time Liferea renders HTML output it
will also dump the generated HTML into
$XDG_CACHE_DIR/liferea/output.xhtml.
- --debug-parsing
- Print debugging messages of all parsing functions
- --debug-performance
- Print debugging messages when a function takes too long to process
- --debug-trace
- Print debugging messages when entering/leaving functions
- --debug-update
- Print debugging messages of the feed update processing
- --debug-verbose
- Print verbose debugging messages
To allow integration with other programs Liferea profives a
DBUS interface for automatic creation of new subscriptions. The script
liferea-add-feed is a convenient way to use this interface. Just pass
a valid feed URL as parameter and the feed will be added to the feed list.
You can also pass non-feed URLs to use feed auto discovery. Example:
liferea-add-feed
"http://www.newsforge.com/newsforge.rss"
Please note that Liferea needs to be running for
liferea-add-feed to work.
- http_proxy
- If a proxy is not specified in the Liferea preferences (which uses the
proxy settings provided by dconf), then Liferea will use the proxy
specified in $http_proxy. $http_proxy should be set to a URI specifying
the desired proxy, for example
‘http://proxy.example.com:3128/’.
- $XDG_CONFIG_DIR/liferea/feedlist.opml
- Contains the current list of subscriptions
- $XDG_CONFIG_DIR/liferea/liferea.css
- Stylesheet that can be used to override default HTML style
- $XDG_DATA_DIR/liferea/liferea.db
- Sqlite3 database with all subscriptions and headlines
