NAME
       Liferea - GTK desktop news aggregator

SYNOPSIS
       liferea [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION
       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 ac-
       counts of TinyTinyRSS and TheOldReader.

OPTIONS
       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, hidden.

       -p, --disable-plugins

       --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.html.

DBUS INTERFACE
       To allow	integration with other programs	Liferea	provides a DBUS	inter-
       face  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.	See the	 EXAM-
       PLES section.

ENVIRONMENT
       http_proxy (for HTTP connections)
       https_proxy (for	HTTPS connections)
	      If  defined  and a proxy is not specified	in the Liferea prefer-
	      ences (which uses	the proxy settings provided by	dconf),	 their
	      value  will  be used as proxy URIs. Both are used	by many	common
	      CLI tools, so make sure to export	them in	a dedicated subshell.

       LIFEREA_FEED_CMD_TIMEOUT
	      If defined, overrides the	default	timeout	 for  feed  generating
	      commands	with  the number of seconds given in this variable. It
	      must be an integer value greater than zero; invalid values  will
	      be ignored.

       LIFEREA_UA_ANONYMOUS
	      If  defined,  randomizes and anonymizes the default HTTP/S User-
	      Agent string.

       LIFEREA_UA
	      If defined, its value replaces  the  default  HTTP/S  User-Agent
	      string.

       LIFEREA_UA has always precedence	over LIFEREA_UA_ANONYMOUS, so the lat-
       ter can be safely defined in global shell initialization	files.

EXAMPLES
       $ http_proxy="http://proxy.example.com:3128" liferea
       $ http_proxy="http://username:password@proxy.example.com:3128" liferea
	      Will  alter  each	 outgoing  request to use proxy.example.com on
	      port 3128	as proxy. If DNS resolution does not work, an  IP  ad-
	      dress can	be used	instead.

       $ LIFEREA_UA_ANONYMOUS=1	liferea	--debug-net
	      Will  alter  each	outgoing HTTP/S	request	to randomize Liferea's
	      version and hide the operative  system  in  use.	 In  addition,
	      prints the HTTP/S	User-Agent and all outgoing network requests.

       $ LIFEREA_UA="Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:10.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/10.0" liferea
	      Will  alter  each	 outgoing HTTP/S request to pose as Firefox on
	      Linux.

       $ liferea-add-feed "feed:https://www.example.com/feed.rss"
       $ liferea --add-feed "https://www.example.com/feed.rss"
	      Subscribe	to "example.com/feed.rss". Remember to supply a	 valid
	      and  correctly  escaped  feed URL	as parameter. Please note that
	      Liferea needs to be running for liferea-add-feed to work.

FILES
       $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.

       $XDG_DATA_DIR/liferea/plugins/
	      User-installed plugins are stored	here. You can either  manually
	      put plugins here or use the plugin installer in Liferea.
