config
The config file is stored in ~/.config/rss-watch/config
. Example configuration file:
[feed "FeedName"]
url = https://rss.example.com/
script = /home/user/script_to_exec.sh '$title' '$link'
This will query the url specified by the url
key for an RSS feed and execute the given script with the arguments title
and link
from the feed.
Multiple script keys can be specified on new lines, which will all be executed.
Only new entries will be acted on. The file ~/.local/share/rss-watch/latest/{FeedName}
will store the last guid
value from the feed.
Use cron, or other tools to run this script periodically.
