Issues with deluge execute plugin and script

Post by venloth »

OK so I am awfully new to deluge, python, and script. Basically a complete new guy here.

Anyways here is my issue. I've read that after you put your command into the execute plugin you should restart deluge to make sure that it works. Now everytime I open deluge and go to the execute plugin it isn't displayed. I hit apply and it will show up... I don't know if this is an issue or not but I fear that the plugin is not working correctly. Now passing that, I also have no idea what to put in the execute "torrent completed" command line. Do I just put the path to the script that I want to use? (I realize this is probably much more deluge forum based but I hoped that I might be able to get some help here too.)

Now this leads me to my other issues. I have a script for filebot that I received from here http://forum.deluge-torrent.org/viewtop ... =9&t=40649 and i'm pretty sure that since I'm using windows the code

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/python
is not what I am looking for. Do I just put in the path to the python program there like this?

Code: Select all

#!/E:/Python/Python
? I figured that the code for the output was pretty simple (the path to where I want the files to go?) but for the file itself... it is just a "File" file, do I need to change this to a .bat or .py or something?

I'm sure there was something else I had a question about... if it was a big deal I'll remember or run into it again as I'm going and can ask.

I even went as far as downloading pinguyOS just so I could run this correctly and I spent about a day researching and didn't really get very far until I lost my option to boot from windows resulting in a fresh reinstall of windows and dropping that whole idea.

I am so sorry for being so ignorant of all things deluge, python and code and thank you for your help well in advance.

EDIT: Oh ya... I was also seeing the chmod +rx and chmod u+x commands to make the script executable. I'm not really sure what it means, and I am not too worried about that part, but I was wondering what I do with this command and/or where I would put it. And as a heads up for anyone that says I need to test the script, that is one more thing I don't know how to do. I assume I shouldn't really need to though seeing as how people seem to have it working for them... then again what do I know, nothing! :D

If you're on Windows it's probably best to use utorrent and adhere to the amc utorrent instructions. Not sure if execute plugin on windows works at all, I've only ever used Deluge on Linux.
:idea: Please read the FAQ and How to Request Help.

Thanks so much. That was the most simple and straightforward answer I've seen in days. :lol:

I only worked so hard for this because I wanted it to work so bad, it looked so nice, and I already had deluge xD I'm going to go ahead and try utorrent, I'll keep deluge just in case someone comes through with an answer. :geek:
