# Configuration file format
```yaml
---
catalog:
- name: alpine
tag: stable
fetcher: html
fetcher_config:
url: https://alpinelinux.org/downloads/
xpath: '//div[@class="l-box"]/p/strong'
links:
- icon_class: 'fas fa-globe'
name: 'Website'
url: 'https://alpinelinux.org'
check_interval: 1h
...
```
Each catalog entry contains a `name` and a `tag` representing the entry. You can choose those freely but they should be URL-safe. Some examples I'm using are: `alpine:stable`, `google-chrome:dev`, `google-chrome:stable`, `factorio:latest`, …
Additionally you will configure a `fetcher` with its corresponding `fetcher_config` for the catalog entry. In the example above the `html` fetcher is used with two attributes configured. The attributes for each fetcher can be found below.
You can provide your own `links` for each catalog entry which will be added to or override the links returned from the fetcher. If you provide the same `name` as the fetcher uses the link of the fetcher will be overridden. The `icon_class` should consist of `fas` or `fab` and an icon (for example `fa-global`). You can use all **solid** (`fas`) or **breand** (`fab`) icons within [Font Awesome v5 Free](https://fontawesome.com/v5.15/icons?d=gallery&s=brands,solid&m=free).
