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
	      Start with all plugins disabled.

       --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-db
	      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.html.

       --debug-net
	      Print  debugging	messages of all	network	activities and display
	      the HTTP/S User-Agent string.

       --debug-parsing
	      Print debugging messages of all parsing functions.

       --debug-update
	      Print debugging messages of the feed update processing.

       --debug-vfolder
	      Print debugging messages of the search folder matching.

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.
