Hi, I have a suggestion...
Create a pidgin plugin or even incorporate libpurple itself as the plugin so we could control Deluge with simple text commands. absolutely zero fiddling with IPs, blocked ports and whatnot. Just create a MSN or Jabber/gtalk username for your program and IM it from work, your cell phone, the library, anything!
A mockup of the menus and commands:
-----------------------
DelugeIM Plugin V0.0001
3 transfers running, 732 connections, 102.4K down, 58.9K up
input command (type Help for command list)
you> add http://www.foobar.org/foo/whatever.torrent
Adding http://www.foobar.org/foo/whatever.torrent
Download successful, starting transfer
4 transfers running, 840 connections, 153K down, 60K up
you> status
Choose 0ne of the following transfers for detailed status report:
1) Ubuntu-9.04.iso
2) Fedora.iso
3) Mandriva.iso
4) whatever
you>4
Whatever size: 803Mb, downloaded 80.2Mb (9.9%), download speed XXX, hh:mm:ss time to complete
---------------------------------------------------
Other possible commands: Pause (number), pause all, reboot/shutdown the computer (default to disabled due to security reasons), delete torrents (not sure about this one either), set/override speed limits. Basically it would be a way to issue simple commands without having to deal with a full web server.
Pidgin/libpurple interface
Re: Pidgin/libpurple interface
This has been discussed before (on IRC) and a jabber ui would indeed be awesome.
That said, there has been no date set for implementing it (it's more on the wish list rather than the todo list).

Re: Pidgin/libpurple interface
Hi,
i was looking for something like that as well. Didn't find anything so i decided to code it myself.
I didn't use libpurple tough, since its a bit of an overkill. Insted I used a pythonian alternative - Twisted Words.
My focus was rather the "notification by IM" part, because controlling it can be done trough the WebUI, but having the Jabber Code there i said - "eeeh, what the hell, lets do it" . That said, the command set of the jabber bot is a little limited:
The status of all the downloads is updated every 10 seconds in the contact "away/status message bubble".
Only Buddies(Authorized JIDs) can send Deluge Commands to Bot.
It sends an Instant Message upon completion of any Download.
It also has Mail Notifications implemented as a Core Plugin, since the included Deluge Mail Notification works only with the GTK UI on.
Adding, Removing of Torrents by sending IM message commands.
Use Instructions:

- del [Id of Torrent] - Deletes Torrent File with given Id
- help - This command

Use Instructions:
- compile code ( python setup.py bdist_egg )
- copy plugin into deluge plugin directory ( usually ~/.config/deluge/plugins )
- Create a Jabber account for your Bot ( register.jabber.org )
- Log on with your favourite IM Chat Application on both your and the Bot's accounts and manually authorize the Bot and viceversa. ( This isn't done by the plugin! ). Both Accounts should see the other one as online. Only Buddies(Authorized JIDs) can send Deluge Commands to Bot
- Start deluged & deluge webUI
- Enable RemoteNotify plugin ( Using WebUI at http://yourdelugedomain/config/plugins <- the ajax theme doesn't have this )
- Enter The Account&Passwords for your Bots jabber and Email account & save. ( http://yourdelugedomain/config/remotenotify )
- Restart deluged. ( Sadly, this is necessary because of a weird Twisted Words bug )
- Have phun chatting with your Deluge Jabberbot

Re: Pidgin/libpurple interface
awesome, I'm assuming this is written for 1.1.8?
also, make sure you add it to: http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/Plugins

Re: Pidgin/libpurple interface

No, it was for 1.1.7. I hope not much is changed, i'll go right at it and port it to the new api.

Re: Pidgin/libpurple interface
lucky. it worked ootb with 1.1.8. Also added to wiki
Re: Pidgin/libpurple interface
yes 1.1.7 and 1.1.8 have no differences in terms of plugin api.
the comment was more referring whether it was for 1.1.x or 1.2 which has a very different api.

Re: Pidgin/libpurple interface
Hi,
I'm running 1.1.9r and running into the following problem when initially attempting to access the plugin to configure it via the webui:
Fault : <Fault 1: '<type \'exceptions.Exception\'>:method "remotenotify_get_config" is not supported'>
This is the traceback:
Any other information desired? Does the plugin need to be patched?
Regards,

Re: Pidgin/libpurple interface
It needs a patch, don't know how, but I have a workaround
Create a directory in the root.
/config
Make sure it is writeable by the user that runs the deluged and deluge.
That will make it work.

Re: Pidgin/libpurple interface
I would really like a working version of this plugin!
Unfortunately it does not work with all versions I tested it. But even if it would work, some things are just ridiculous: Why do I _have to_ specify a mail address as well as a Jabber ID? I only want to be notified via Jabber - mail should be optional!
Why is it not possible to configure the plugin from within Deluge? The webui-configuration step is not possible with the new version of Deluge?
Windows support has to be improved immensely! It is not possible to get it running; I tried it with Ubuntu as well, but I was not once able to have "phun" with my Jabberbot!
Please improve it, thank you.
