FreshRSS and Elfeed? (alien.top)

I'm trying to get Elfeed to work with FreshRSS. I know that the FreshRSS API works correctly because I tested it with an RSS reader on my iPad and iPhone and it syncs correctly with the login/password credentials and the API url.

However, with Elfeed, I get nothing. I'm sharing my elfeed setup below in the hopes that someone might let me know if I'm doing anything wrong.

​

(use-package elfeed
:bind
("C-x e" . elfeed))

(require 'elfeed-goodies)

(use-package elfeed-protocol
:ensure t
:demand t
:after elfeed
:config
:custom
(elfeed-protocol-fever-maxsize 10000)
(elfeed-use-curl t)
(elfeed-set-timeout 36000)
;;(elfeed-log-level 'debug)
;;(toggle-debug-on-error)
(elfeed-curl-extra-arguments '("--insecure"))
(setq elfeed-protocol-enabled-protocols '(fever newsblur owncloud ttrss))
(elfeed-protocol-enable)
(setq elfeed-protocol-fever-update-unread-only t)
(setq elfeed-protocol-fever-fetch-category-as-tag t)
(setq elfeed-protocol-feeds '(("fever+http://username@mydomain.org"
:api-url "http://mydomain.org/api/fever.php"
:password "my password"))))

I can't help with your problem (other than maybe try knocking the config back to the absolute minimum and if that works then try adding back bits until it breaks again) but i can't believe you're re-mapping C-x e, it's just so useful as kmacro-end-and-call-macro.

I get nothing.

What does that mean?

[–] TyrionBean@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

It means I get nothing. I get a blank buffer and at the top is the default elfeed line:

Updated 2022-08-22 13:26, 0/0:0, @6-months-ago +unread

Which is the last time I used Elfeed with my org-mode list of feeds. If I Clear out the filter, I get all of the articles from over a year ago which are marked read. I get nothing new from my FreshRSS install. No new feeds, nothing downloading. I hit `g` and `G` and it doesn't do anything. I use `elfeed-unjam` and it still does nothing.

That's what I mean by nothing: An absence of something. :)
