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 accounts 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

DBUS INTERFACE¶
To allow integration with other programs Liferea provides 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. See the EXAMPLES section.
ENVIRONMENT¶
https_proxy (for HTTPS connections)
- 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 latter 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
- $ 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"
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
