|
|
+.SH NAME
|
|
+r2e \- receive RSS feeds by email
|
|
+.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
+.B r2e action [options]
|
|
+.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
+.BR r2e
|
|
+is a simple program which you can run in your crontab.
|
|
+It watches RSS feeds and sends you nicely formatted email message
|
|
+for each new item.
|
|
+.P
|
|
+The program is configured by ~/.rss2email/config.py
|
|
+.P
|
|
+For a quick start with r2e, try these steps:
|
|
+.P
|
|
+.RS
|
|
+.nf
|
|
+.BI "r2e new " your@address
|
|
+.BI "r2e add " http://feed.url/somewhere.rss
|
|
+.BI "r2e run "
|
|
+.RE
|
|
+.P
|
|
+The last command should eventually be put into your crontab, if you
|
|
+want things be sent you automatically.
|
|
+.SH ACTIONS
|
|
+.TP
|
|
+.B new [youremail]
|
|
+Create a new feedfile. If the second option is specified, it sets the
|
|
+default email address that mails are sent to.
|
|
+.TP
|
|
+.B add url [youremail]
|
|
+Subscribe to a feed. The first option is the URL of the feed.
|
|
+The optional second option is the email address to send new items to.
|
|
+Repeat for each feed you want to subscribe to.
|
|
+.TP
|
|
+.B run [--no-send]
|
|
+Scan the feeds and send emails for new items. This can be run in a cron
|
|
+job.
|
|
+The --no-send option stops r2e from sending any email. This can be
|
|
+useful the first time you run it, as otherwise it would send every
|
|
+available story.
|
|
+.TP
|
|
+.B email yournewemail
|
|
+Change the default email address.
|
|
+.TP
|
|

|
|
+List all your currently subscribed feeds.
|
|
+.TP
|
|
+.B delete n
|
|
+Delete a feed, using its number from the list command.
|
|
+.SH "CONFIGURATION"
|
|
+The following configuration variables can be set in the ~/.rss2email/config.py
|
|
+config file. The file is a python file, so variables are set using a syntax
|
|
+like this: VARIABLE = "value"
|
|
+.P
|
|
+If the value is a number, the quotes may be omitted. Most configuration
|
|
+variables in the file are boolean values, where a 1 indicates the option is
|
|
+set, and a 0 disables it.
|
|
+.TP
|
|
+.B DEFAULT_FROM
|
|
+The email address messages are from by default, if the rss feed does not
|
|
+specify an email address. The default valus is "bozo@dev.null"
|
|
+.TP
|
|
+.B FORCE_FROM
|
|
+If set, the DEFAULT_FROM address will always be used, otherwise use
|
|
+the email address specified by the feed, when possible.
|
|
+.TP
|
|
+.B HTML_MAIL
|
|
+If set, HTML mail will be sent as such. Otherwise, entries will be
|
|
+converted to plain text before sending.
|
|
+.TP
|
|

|
|
+If set, receive one email per post. Otherwise, a new email will be sent
|

|
|
+.TP
|
|
+.B DATE_HEADER
|
|
