google-news（Google news 搜索）

Google News RSS API

Google News is a free news aggregator that collects headlines from thousands of publishers around the world. Google exposes its feeds via public RSS 2.0 endpoints that require no authentication or API key.

Base URL

https://news.google.com/rss

All feed URLs are built by appending paths and query parameters to this base.

Query Parameters

Every feed URL accepts the following query parameters to control region and language:

Important: All three parameters should be consistent. Mismatched values may return unexpected or empty results.

Supported Locations (Validated)

The following locations have been tested and confirmed to return valid RSS feeds (HTTP 200):

Feed Types

1. Top Stories (Headlines)

Returns the current top stories for a given location.

URL pattern:

https://news.google.com/rss?hl={hl}&gl={gl}&ceid={gl}:{lang}

Example — US top stories:

https://news.google.com/rss?hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US:en

2. Topic Feeds

Returns articles for a specific news topic / section.

URL pattern:

https://news.google.com/rss/topics/{TOPIC_ID}?hl={hl}&gl={gl}&ceid={gl}:{lang}

Known Topic IDs (English, US):

Example — Technology news (US):

https://news.google.com/rss/topics/CAAqJggKIiBDQkFTRWdvSUwyMHZNRGRqTVhZU0FtVnVHZ0pWVXlnQVAB?hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US:en

Note: Topic IDs are base64-encoded protocol buffer strings. They can differ by language/region. The IDs above are for en-US. To find topic IDs for other locales, inspect the RSS link on the Google News website for that locale.

3. Keyword / Search Feeds

Returns articles matching a search query.

URL pattern:

https://news.google.com/rss/search?q={query}&hl={hl}&gl={gl}&ceid={gl}:{lang}

Query modifiers:

Example — search for "artificial intelligence" in the last 7 days:

https://news.google.com/rss/search?q=artificial+intelligence+when:7d&hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US:en

RSS Response Format

All feeds return RSS 2.0 XML. Here is the general structure:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Key Fields per <item>

Common Patterns

Fetch Top Headlines (curl + grep)

curl -s "https://news.google.com/rss?hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US:en" \
  | grep -oP '<title>\K[^<]+'

Fetch Top Headlines (Python)

import feedparser

feed = feedparser.parse(
    "https://news.google.com/rss?hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US:en"
)

for entry in feed.entries:
    print(f"{entry.published} — {entry.title}")
    print(f"  Link: {entry.link}")
    print()

Fetch Topic Feed (curl + xmllint)

TOPIC="CAAqJggKIiBDQkFTRWdvSUwyMHZNRGRqTVhZU0FtVnVHZ0pWVXlnQVAB"
curl -s "https://news.google.com/rss/topics/${TOPIC}?hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US:en" \
  | xmllint --xpath '//item/title/text()' -

Search for Articles (Python)

import feedparser
import urllib.parse

query = urllib.parse.quote("artificial intelligence when:7d")
url = f"https://news.google.com/rss/search?q={query}&hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US:en"

feed = feedparser.parse(url)
for entry in feed.entries[:10]:
    print(f"• {entry.title}")

Fetch News for a Specific Location (Node.js)

const https = require("https");
const { parseStringPromise } = require("xml2js");

const url =
  "https://news.google.com/rss?hl=en-GB&gl=GB&ceid=GB:en";

https.get(url, (res) => {
  let data = "";
  res.on("data", (chunk) => (data += chunk));
  res.on("end", async () => {
    const result = await parseStringPromise(data);
    const items = result.rss.channel[0].item || [];
    items.slice(0, 10).forEach((item) => {
      console.log(item.title[0]);
    });
  });
});

Extract Related Articles from Description (Python)

import feedparser
from html.parser import HTMLParser

class RelatedParser(HTMLParser):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.articles = []
        self._in_a = False
        self._href = ""
        self._text = ""

    def handle_starttag(self, tag, attrs):
        if tag == "a":
            self._in_a = True
            self._href = dict(attrs).get("href", "")
            self._text = ""

    def handle_endtag(self, tag):
        if tag == "a" and self._in_a:
            self.articles.append({"title": self._text, "link": self._href})
            self._in_a = False

    def handle_data(self, data):
        if self._in_a:
            self._text += data

feed = feedparser.parse(
    "https://news.google.com/rss?hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US:en"
)

for entry in feed.entries[:3]:
    print(f"\n=== {entry.title} ===")
    parser = RelatedParser()
    parser.feed(entry.description)
    for art in parser.articles:
        print(f"  • {art['title']}")
        print(f"    {art['link']}")

Build a Multi-Region News Aggregator (Python)

import feedparser

REGIONS = {
    "US":  "hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US:en",
    "UK":  "hl=en-GB&gl=GB&ceid=GB:en",
    "DE":  "hl=de&gl=DE&ceid=DE:de",
    "JP":  "hl=ja&gl=JP&ceid=JP:ja",
    "BR":  "hl=pt-BR&gl=BR&ceid=BR:pt-419",
}

for region, params in REGIONS.items():
    feed = feedparser.parse(f"https://news.google.com/rss?{params}")
    print(f"\n--- {region} Top 3 ---")
    for entry in feed.entries[:3]:
        print(f"  • {entry.title}")

Monitor a Topic with Polling (bash)

#!/usr/bin/env bash
FEED="https://news.google.com/rss/search?q=breaking+news+when:1h&hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US:en"
SEEN_FILE="/tmp/gnews_seen.txt"
touch "$SEEN_FILE"

while true; do
  curl -s "$FEED" | grep -oP '<guid[^>]*>\K[^<]+' | while read -r guid; do
    if ! grep -qF "$guid" "$SEEN_FILE"; then
      echo "$guid" >> "$SEEN_FILE"
      TITLE=$(curl -s "$FEED" | grep -oP "<item>.*?<guid[^>]*>${guid}.*?</item>" \
        | grep -oP '<title>\K[^<]+' | head -1)
      echo "[NEW] $TITLE"
    fi
  done
  sleep 120
done

Resolving Google News Redirect URLs

Article links in the RSS feed point to https://news.google.com/rss/articles/... which redirect (HTTP 302/303) to the actual publisher URL. To resolve the final URL:

curl

curl -Ls -o /dev/null -w '%{url_effective}' \
  "https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMiWkFV..."

Python

import requests

response = requests.head(
    "https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMiWkFV...",
    allow_redirects=True,
    timeout=10,
)
print(response.url)  # final publisher URL

Rate Limits

Google does not publish official rate limits for the RSS feeds. Based on community observations:

If you receive an HTTP 429 response, back off exponentially (e.g., 1 min → 2 min → 4 min).

Error Handling

Tips

• No auth needed — all feeds are fully public. Start fetching immediately.
• Use feedparser in Python — it handles RSS parsing, date normalization, and encoding edge cases.
• Combine search modifiers — q=Tesla+site:reuters.com+when:30d for precise results.
• Topic IDs are locale-specific — an English topic ID may not work with hl=de. Inspect the Google News page in that locale to find the correct ID.
• The <description> field is HTML — it contains clustered/related articles as an <ol> list. Parse the HTML to extract multiple sources per story.
• The <title> includes the publisher — the format is Headline text - Publisher Name. Split on - (space-dash-space) from the right to separate them.
• Feed results are limited — Google typically returns ~100 items per feed. Use search with date filters to paginate through older results.
• Respect the copyright notice — Google's RSS feeds are intended for personal, non-commercial use in feed readers. Review Google's terms for other uses.
• Resolve redirects lazily — only resolve the Google redirect URL to the publisher URL when you actually need the final link. This saves requests.
• Set a proper User-Agent — e.g., User-Agent: MyNewsBot/1.0 (contact@example.com). Some environments may get blocked without one.
