Configuration Parameters

The maximum number of parsing errors that the program will try before stopping polling a feed. Once the limit is reached, the user must refresh the feed manually. Set to 0 for unlimited.

Default is 3.

BATCH_SIZE

The maximum number of feeds to send to the work queue for each polling interval.

The actual number of feeds added to the work queue is subject to the scheduler.

Default is 100.

FORCE_REFRESH_INTERVAL

The minimum interval for manual refresh.

Default is 30 minutes.

POLLING_SCHEDULER

Scheduler used for polling feeds. Possible values are round_robin or entry_frequency.

The scheduler does not alter the polling interval, instead it throttles the number of qualified feeds for polling. The feeds will be added to the work queue, when the current time exceeds the targeting refreshing time. The maximum number of feeds polled for a given period is subject to POLLING_FREQUENCY and BATCH_SIZE.

When entry_frequency is selected, the targeting refreshing interval for a given feed is equal to the average updating interval of the last week of the feed. The actual number of feeds polled will not exceed the maximum number of feeds that could be polled for a given period.

Default is round_robin.
