Preface
This section describes in brief some CLI commands. Please read the general notes on the command line interface before continuing.
Importing newsfeeds from OPML
It's possible to import not only newsfeeds but also folders and Fever groups using OPML files. The process is simple:
sudo arsse import "user@example.com" "subscriptions.opml"
The importer is forgiving, but some OPML files may fail, with the reason printed out. Files are either imported in total, or not at all.
Exporting newsfeeds to OPML
It's possible to export not only newsfeeds but also folders and Fever groups to OPML files. The process is simple:
sudo arsse export "user@example.com" "subscriptions.opml"
The output might look like this:
<opml version="2.0">
<head/>
<body>
<outline text="Folder">
<outline text="Subfolder">
<outline type="rss" text="Feed 1" xmlUrl="http://example.com/feed1"/>
</outline>
<outline type="rss" text="Feed 2" xmlUrl="http://example.com/feed2" category="group 1,group 2"/>
<outline type="rss" text="Feed 3" xmlUrl="http://example.com/feed3" category="group 1"/>
</outline>
<outline type="rss" text="Feed 4" xmlUrl="http://example.com/feed4" category="group 2,group 3"/>
</body>
</opml>
Managing newsfeeds via OPML
Not all protocols supported by The Arsse allow modifying newsfeeds or folders, et cetera; additionally, not all clients support these capabilities even if the protocol has the necessary features. An OPML export/import sequence with the --replace import option specified, however, makes any kind of modification possible. For example:
# export your newsfeeds
sudo arsse export "user@example.com" "subscriptions.opml"
# make any changes you want in your editor of choice
nano "subscriptions.opml"
# re-import the modified information
sudo arsse import "user@example.com" "subscriptions.opml" --replace
