Newsblur protocol

[Vietoonet]

Hi,

Since few weeks, Newsblur protocol seems not working properly. I get error in elfeed log "] [error]: newsblur+https://user@newsblur.com: "(1) Unsupported protocol." (for sample i changed my account user by "user").

My setup for elfeed-protocol
(require 'elfeed-protocol)
(setq elfeed-protocol-feeds '(("newsblur+https://user@newsblur.com"
:password (password-store-get "newsblur")
:autotags '(("youtube.com" youtube))
)))

(setq elfeed-log-level 'debug)
(toggle-debug-on-error)
(setq elfeed-protocol-log-trace t)

(setq elfeed-protocol-enabled-protocols '(newsblur))
(elfeed-protocol-enable)

I'm on Linux Calculate (Gentoo derivative version) and I'm on Emacs 30.2.

Duplicate #73

@Vietoonet elfeed-protocol should work with latest elfeed now, please have a try and feedback if something wrong.

Hi, thanks elfeed-protocol-newsblur retrieves entries now but when I connect on Newsblur official site by default it highlights feeds not read yet of the last 30 days and for instance it shows me 123 entries not read. When I apply filter in Elfeed with "@30-days-ago +unread" elfeed displays only 3 entries only instead of the 123 expected. And if I mark those 3 entries as read and update elfeed I got 3 new ones but still...

Looks caused by #75

Hi @Vietoonet. The incremental updating issue should be solved in the latest commit. Please have a try and feedback. Thanks.

Hi @fasheng,

Sorry, still retrieve from Newsblur only 3 max items by 'elfeed-update'.

elfeed-protocol version 20260520.1852
elfeed version 20260521.1431

Here the elfeed debug log if it helps.

Well, looks Newsblur limited the API only for premium user now. I didn't use Newsblur for a long time and have no idea for it...
