usage

  -host string
        miniflux hostname, f.e. http://localhost:8080 (default "http://localhost:8080")
  -output-opml string
        optional, output filename, f.e. /tmp/opml.xml
  -output-stars string
        optional, output filename, f.e. /tmp/starred-articles.xml
  -output-unread string
        optional, output filename, f.e. /tmp/unread-articles.xml
  -pass string
        miniflux password
  -s    if flag -s is provided, the happy-flow won't display any output
  -user string
        miniflux username
  -v    if flag -v is provided, debugging info is printed
  -version
        prints current version

in your crontab

Put miniflux-exporter in your crontab to frequently make a backup of all your feeds, f.e.:

@weekly        /usr/bin/miniflux-exporter -s -user YOUR_NAME -pass YOUR_PASS -host http://miniflux-server -output-opml "/my-backups/feeds-opml.xml" -output-stars "/my-backups/miniflux-starred-articles.xml" -output-unread "/my-backups/miniflux-unread-articles.xml"

This will backup once a week the starred items, the unread items and exports all feeds to an OPML file and will only display error messages. Please note that the different outputs are all options. So if you only want to export the starred articles, then you should only provide the -output-stars flag.
