Hooks

A number of hooks are available to customize the behavior of Elfeed at key points without resorting to advice.

• ‘elfeed-new-entry-hook’ : Called each time a new entry it added to the database, allowing for automating tagging and such.
• ‘elfeed-new-entry-parse-hook’ : Called with each new entry and the full XML structure from which it was parsed, allowing for additional information to be drawn from the original feed XML.
• ‘elfeed-http-error-hook’ : Allows for special behavior when HTTP errors occur, beyond simply logging the error to the buffer named ‘elfeed-log-buffer-name’.
• ‘elfeed-parse-error-hook’ : Allows for special behavior when feed parsing fails, beyond logging.
• ‘elfeed-db-update-hook’ : Called any time the database has had a major modification.
• ‘elfeed-db-unload-hook’ : Called before unloading the database.
• ‘elfeed-update-hook’ : Called any time a feed is updated.
• ‘elfeed-update-init-hook’ : Called before feed updates.
• ‘elfeed-tag-hook’ : Called before an entry gets tagged.
• ‘elfeed-untag-hook’ : Called before an entry gets untagged.
• ‘elfeed-show-update-hook’ : Called after the show buffer has been updated.
• ‘elfeed-search-update-hook’ : Called after the search buffer has been updated.
• ‘elfeed-tree-update-hook’ : Called after the tree buffer has been updated.
