Import/export RSS feed definition

Post by Samkook »

It would be nice if there was an option to import/export all the search strings from a RSS feed.

For example, if my current feed would go down and I wanted to use the same strings for a temporary feed or simply if I would like to change it and still keep the old one as backup or something. It would also be very usefull if someone wanted to transfer it to another computer.

Having 110 strings searches can take a long time to copy to a new feed.

The definitions are all in the sabnzbd.ini file.
Section [RSS].
You can also read them through the API, although the documentation is a bit poor currently.

+1 for the ability to import/export the feed list.

I know they are in the ini file, and that is how I have previously backed them up. However, I ran into problems a during the last install because of the way the ini file organized the RSS feeds. Long story short, I wound up with some duplicate RSS items - like there were two feed zeros (one for show 1 and one for show 2). Naturally, sab would not start because it could not parse the feed list properly.

Anyway, importing/exporting the feed list would be a nice feature
