[0.6] Feature Request: Download from server to local drive

Post by parahost »

I am pretty sure this is not implemented in .6, but correct me if I am wrong.

THE FEATURE:

Allow the downloading of downloaded files from the server.

THE REASON:

Imagine I am running a headless server. The server is not on the LAN, but instead in another country. There would need to be a way to get the file back on my local machine since that is where I will be working with the file. So, I propose a built in FTP or something to download from the server. Here would be a workflow in the gtk gui.

Add torrent -> Torrent Finishes -> Right click torrent and select "Download to local machine" and it will start the download from the server to the local machine.

It seems like this feature would be 'out-of-scope' for deluge and would be better served by simply running a FTPD (or similar) server on the headless box.

Well, doesn't the remote machine run ssh server? If so, you can simply get the files locally using sftp.
