How to enter multiple RSS feeds?

Post by Engenia »

I have many feeds to enter into a new qBittorrent v4.3.9 install. The RSS Rules can be easily imported as a json but I haven't found a way to import the RSS Feeds.

Rather than laboriously enter one at a time via the GUI, is there a way to add them with an editor modifying a file in Ubuntu 20.04?

Go into "%APPDATA%\rss" (or find the same folder in your distro) and feeds.json file.

From what I gather, each entry has a UID, but the code will generate a UID if its missing from the file. (rss_session.cpp)
(Uuid is generated through Qt's QUuid class - https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/quuid.html#createUuid)

So you could simply just fill up the feeds.json with Python (Python also has Qt bindings.)

Thankyou so much!
Found feeds.json in HOME/.config/qBittorrent
This will save me hours
