Getting execute plugin working

Post by chrisbaume »

Hi there,

Have just moved over to Deluge from Transmission, and am very happy. Am running it on a headless Ubuntu 9.04 server, and installed it using the PPA repository (v1.20). As it's on a headless server, I'm controlling it using the web ui only (which is kick-ass! :D)

I ran 'deluged', then 'deluge-web', and activated Execute using the web ui. I then stopped both services, and edited ~/.config/deluge/execute.conf to look like this:

Code: Select all

{
  "file": 1,
  "format": 1
}{
  "commands": [
    "/home/chrisbaume/scripts/deluge-test.sh"
  ]
}
Starting it all up again and downloading a torrent, the script didn't appear to get called. Can you suggest why?

Thanks for your help,


Chris

Okay, problem solved. Managed to remote connect to the server using Deluge GTK, which you can use to configure execute in the preferences menu.

Execute.conf ended up looking something like this:

Code: Select all

{
  "file": 1,
  "format": 1
}{
  "commands": [
    [
      "13fe3942b1008b9f223b7030d6997da5f1d1f728",
      "complete",
      "/home/chrisbaume/scripts/deluge-test.sh"
    ]
  ]
}
Got a bit confused when the list of scripts to execute disappears when Apply is clicked, but this appears to be normal.

Looking forward to the implementation of the execute web ui configuration :)
