DESCRIPTION
Output TV listings in XMLTV format for many channels available in
Israel. The data comes from tv.walla.co.il.
First you must run tv_grab_il --configure to choose which channels you
want to receive.
Then running tv_grab_il with no arguments will get a listings in XML
format for the channels you chose for available days including today.
OPTIONS
--configure Prompt for which channels to download and write the
configuration file.
--config-file FILE Set the name of the configuration file, the default
is ~/.xmltv/tv_grab_il.conf. This is the file written by --configure
and read when grabbing.
--output FILE When grabbing, write output to FILE rather than standard
output.
--days N When grabbing, grab N days rather than all available days.
--offset N Start grabbing at today + N days. N may be negative.
--quiet Suppress the progress-bar normally shown on standard error.
--debug Provide more information on progress to stderr to help in
debugging.
--list-channels Write output giving <channel> elements for every
channel available (ignoring the config file), but no programmes.
--capabilities Show which capabilities the grabber supports. For more
information, see <http://wiki.xmltv.org/index.php/XmltvCapabilities>
--version Show the version of the grabber.
--help Print a help message and exit.
ERROR HANDLING
If the grabber fails to download data for some channel on a specific
day, it will print an errormessage to STDERR and then continue with the
other channels and days. The grabber will exit with a status code of 1
to indicate that the data is incomplete.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The environment variable HOME can be set to change where configuration
files are stored. All configuration is stored in $HOME/.xmltv/. On
Windows, it might be necessary to set HOME to a path without spaces in
it.
SUPPORTED CHANNELS
For information on supported channels, see http://tv.walla.co.il/
