Design intent:
- Option to turn seeding support on or off
- After torrent downloading is complete the seeding phase starts, seeding parameters can be set per torrent provide (0 disables them)
- When the seeding phase starts the checkSnatched function renames all files if (sym)linking/copying is used. The movie is set to done (!), the release to seeding status.
- Note that Direct symlink functionality is removed as the original file needs to end up in the movies store and not the downloader store (if the downloader cleans up his files, the original is deleted and the symlinks are useless)
- checkSnatched waits until downloader sets the download to completed (met the seeding parameters)
- When completed, checkSnatched intiates the renamer if move is used, or if linking is used asks the downloader to remove the torrent and clean-up it's files and sets the release to downloaded
- Updated some of the .ignore file behavior to allow the downloader to remove its files
Known items/issues:
- only implemented for uTorrent and Transmission
- text in downloader settings is too long and messes up the layout...
To do (after this PR):
- implement for other torrent downloaders
- complete download removal for NZBs (remove from history in sabNZBd)
- failed download management for torrents (no seeders, takes too long, etc.)
- unrar support
Updates:
- Added transmission support
- Simplified uTorrent
- Added checkSnatched to renamer to make sure the poller is always first
- Updated default values and removed advanced option tag for providers
- Updated the tagger to allow removing of ignore tags and tagging when the group is not known
- Added tagging of downloading torrents
- fixed subtitles being leftover after seeding
Linktastic calls the command line interpreter to do linking. This
solution calls the windows API directly. This is faster and cleaner, but
most important of all: it doesn't cause a command window to popup every
time a link is made. This popup asks window focus and thus interrupts a
movie you are watching!!
Hopefully this also works on non-windows systems. I am unable to test
this so please let me know :)
This is the next step in closing the loop between the downloaders and CPS. The download_id and folder from the downloader are used to find the downloaded files and start the renamer. This is done by adding an additional API call: renamer.scanfolder.
I tested this for SabNZBd only (!) and everything works as expected.
I also added transmission with thanks @manusfreedom for setting this up in f1cf0d91da. @manusfreedom, please check if this works as expected. Note that transmission now has a feature which is not in the other torrent providers: it waits until the seed ratio is met and then removes the torrent. I opened a topic in the forum to discuss how we want to deal with torrents: https://couchpota.to/forum/thread-1704.html
