i love deluge and use it all the time, but for me, the icing on the cake would be an 'auto shutdown' feature when downloads are complete - similar to the one utorrent has.
i often have to leave my downloads running overnight due to bandwith throttling from my ISP, so the ability to shutdown automatically would be fantastic.
i do seed what i've downloaded, so i'm not asking for the feature to enable me to become a hardcore leecher or anything like that

I think this problem would be better solved by utilizing the scheduler plugin.

I would really like to see such a feature!
I'm a student and I can't pay a 24/7 energy bill.
If the pc would shut down after downloading this would be appreciated. I even only registered at this forum for this feature.
EDIT: Oh I forgot something: A feature like "do command x then y then z after download" would be cool, too...
Like: 1. scan Folder for virus, 2. extract multi .rar file, 3. shut down pc...
What do you think?

I apologize for bumping such an old thread, but how exactly would I go about sheduling shutdown? I've tried pointing it to shutdown.exe in system32 on Torrent Complete, but that doesn't seem to do anything.
Does 'torrent complete' mean 1:1 ratio on all torrents, or does it only imply that it's done downloading? And does 'Torrent complete' apply to all torrents currently downloading, or only one? Reason I'm asking is because I have over 40 torrents constantly seeding, so perhaps that's why it won't shutdown?
Thank you for your time & your amazing program
Edit: Another unrelated question, but didn't feel it was worth creating a thread for: The blocklist plugin. Does every list that gets imported, also get applied, or can only one list be used at a time?

I think the shutdown command in windows needs other options but there is a free program,
Wizmo, that is very useful and can perform other tasks such as standby and hibernate.
To use it in Windows you need to create a batch file that points to the exe and has the options you want to use:
Code: Select all
@ECHO OFF
start wizmo.exe shutdown
Note: it is important to have the 'start' command before the exe you want to run otherwise it crashes deluge.
Then add the batch file location to the execute plugin e.g. C:\shutdown.bat

Done downloading and it is which ever torrent finishes first runs the command
