      <<-MD
        This Agent consumes RSS feeds and emits events when they change.

        This Agent is fairly simple, using [feed-normalizer](https://github.com/aasmith/feed-normalizer) as a base.  For complex feeds
        with additional field types, we recommend using a WebsiteAgent.  See [this example](https://github.com/cantino/huginn/wiki/Agent-configuration-examples#itunes-trailers).

        If you want to *output* an RSS feed, use the DataOutputAgent.

        Options:

          * `url` - The URL of the RSS feed (an array of URLs can also be used; items with identical guids across feeds will be considered duplicates).
          * `clean` - Attempt to use [feed-normalizer](https://github.com/aasmith/feed-normalizer)'s' `clean!` method to cleanup HTML in the feed.  Set to `true` to use.
          * `expected_update_period_in_days` - How often you expect this RSS feed to change.  If more than this amount of time passes without an update, the Agent will mark itself as not working.
          * `headers` - When present, it should be a hash of headers to send with the request.
          * `basic_auth` - Specify HTTP basic auth parameters: `"username:password"`, or `["username", "password"]`.
          * `disable_ssl_verification` - Set to `true` to disable ssl verification.
          * `disable_url_encoding` - Set to `true` to disable url encoding.
          * `user_agent` - A custom User-Agent name (default: "Faraday v#{Faraday::VERSION}").
          * `max_events_per_run` - Limit number of events created (items parsed) per run for feed.
