NAME¶
rawdog - an RSS Aggregator Without Delusions Of Grandeur
SYNOPSIS¶
rawdog [
options]
DESCRIPTION¶
This manual page briefly documents the
rawdog command.
rawdog is an RSS (and other) feed aggregator, based on Mark Pilgrim's
flexible feed parser.
rawdog reads articles from a number of feeds and
writes out a single HTML file, based on a template either provided by the user
or generated by rawdog, containing the latest articles it's seen.
OPTIONS¶
This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options
starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below. For a
complete description, see the README file.
- -u, --update
- Fetch data from the feeds and store it. This could take
some time if you've got lots of feeds.
- -w, --write
- Write out the HTML output file.
- -f SOMEURL, --update-feed SOMEURL
- Update the feed pointed to by SOMEURL immediately,
even if its period hasn't elapsed since it was last updated.
- -c FILE, --config FILE
- Read FILE as an additional config file; any options
provided in FILE will override those set in the main config file
(with the exception of "feed", which is cumulative). FILE
may be an absolute path or a path relative to your .rawdog directory. Note
that $HOME/.rawdog/config will still be read first even if you specify
this option.
- -t, --show-template
- Print the template currently in use to stdout.
- -a URL, --add URL
- Add a new feed to the config file.
- -d DIR, --dir DIR
- Use DIR instead of the $HOME/.rawdog directory.
- --help
- Provide a brief summary of all the options rawdog supports,
and exit.
FILES¶
$HOME/.rawdog/config
