Windows - Start downloading a torrent via commandline

Post by Joe96 »

Hey, I made a python script that downloads some torrent files automatically, and i was wondering if it's possible to make that script to start deluge as well. What i want to do is make deluge start downloading that .torrent file with the download location i specify, without having to interact with deluge. Is that possible?

deluge-console could do that but have you looked at the autoadd plugin for a watch directory.

Autoadd isn't going to help me, since i need each torrent downloaded in a particular folder, so deluge-console will have to do. But to add a new torrent with deluge-console, i seem to need deluged.exe to run.

So there is no way to add torrents and set a particular path for each torrent in deluge classic. i need the daemon process. Am i able to check the progress in this case?
