Hey guys
im trying to add new torrents to deluge using commandline. what i want to do is give deluge both path to .torrent file and a path where to save the files.
i found this in deluge forum "add -p /home/<user>/Downloads/
http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu- ... so.torrent"
so i tried on my home pc - deluge.exe "add -p e:\ubuntu c:\ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso.torrent"
but that doesnt work :/ is anyone able to help med ?

if you use deluge-console.exe you can pass it commands from the command line

You need to be running deluge in thin-client setup so that means running deluged.exe and then connecting to it with deluge-console.exe.
Code: Select all
deluge-console.exe help
deluge-console.exe info
deluge-console.exe "add --help"
deluge-console.exe "add -p c:\new c:\new.torrent"

The attachment should fix your problem.
Copy the file into: C:\Program Files\Deluge\deluge-1.3.1-py2.6.egg\deluge\ui\console\commands\

It works, super nice
I have a minor request though. When saving torrent-data to D:\, and the torrent is created with a torrent-name (not filename) like Test-Data, the data is typicaly saved to D:\Test-Data\.
I would like if it was possible to disable that directory-naming, so that the torrent data is saved to D:\, regardless of the torrent name

If the torrent was created from a folder then it will create a folder upon being loaded into Deluge.
I think there may be a feature request ticket for this.
