updateCycle_secs | Optional - if present harvested URLs may be replaced if they are older than this time and are encountered from the RSS or in the "extraUrls" |
regexInclude | Optional - if specified, only URLs matching the regex will be harvested |
regexExclude | Optional - if specified, any URLs matching the regex will not be harvested |
extraUrls | This array allows for manually specified URLs to be harvested once { "url": string // The URL |
userAgent | (Optional) If present overrides the system default user agent string |
