Transmission

mha2908, with transmission's web UI you are not actually using any http server anymore but the build-in server of transmission itself. Therefore configuring any other http server that might be installed on your system naturally will have NO effect on transmission what-so-ever. The extract from the w...

With transmission there is no session management. Each request to the transmission server/daemon has to be authenticated. Using a browser that means each request has to include the authentication header or the response is going to be a "401 - Unauthorized" return code. Once the browser get...

Thanks for the encouragement! I will be on business in UK all of next week but I will try to get this finished anyway... Some thoughts: - When clicking a torrent, show file list first, instead of details I guess you are right... most of the time one will want to look at the files since most of the o...

Since there is no server-side scripting possible with the transmission web interface, this function would have to be implemented as part of a JSON RPC call. Possibly the session-get method could return a download-dir-free-size or something along that line and only then one could augment the web inte...

Okay... after a few nights work I finished the design of an iPhone specific web interface for transmission. It is all mock-up right now - no connection to the actual transmission-backend but I thought I'll get some feedback from all of you as to what works for you and what should be changed while I ...

You should use the bookmarklet that has been discussed in other threads here in the forum (search for bookmarklet). It allows you to upload torrents through transmission's JSON API straight from the website where you find the link. Much better than copy and paste! And no Open button needed on the we...

I've tried the following and it works but now would like to have more than one username:password. Can this be done? Big fat NO... The daemon is started for one specific username:password and that is the one you have to specify with -n for transmission-remote. Why do you need multiple username:passw...

The link is back online! I had to switch the drive off for a while because the noise from the stupid fan was driving me nuts. I really have to go and buy an new fan for that thing.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks for the encouragement! I am currently in Bangkok waiting for my flight to New Delhi from where I will return to Frankfurt in Germany - vacation is over *sigh* But that also means I can finally resume work on this WebUI, fix the bugs, you have found and reported so far and get the iPhone style...

rb, the permission issue is duelly noted! I'll make sure the permissions are set right and put out a new zip file. The network usage spikes because now all the file information is transferred as well. If you have tons of torrents with tons of files that is a lot of information to be gotten. Though i...

Chris, what browser are you using? With Firefox on Linux I don't see any of that. I am not using any tricky HTML to get that list rendered - well except for the "position: absolute" on the check box image. I thought this to be pretty save and normal HTML <LI> code. Could you get a screen s...

Okay, here it is. I picked up Chris' proposal and implemented it basically just as shown in his post. The interface is now fully functional in terms of "unwanting" files and changing their priority. The tracker-management hasn't enjoyed any further attention as of now. Unfortunately this c...

For file prioritization, I'd make it visual the same way the desktop app handles it. Chris, I presume, you are talking about the OS X client? Is there some screen shot of the file list somewhere? The screen shots on the transmission site do not show the file list of the OS X client and I don't have...

Hi, I have worked on the WebUI that last couple of weeks and finally came up with a version I'd like some feedback on... It updates the inspector to show a list of trackers for the torrent with the currently used one showing in bold (or N/A if none or multiple torrents are selected) and adds another...

fingaz,
you probably figured this out already, but for future reference: you need to use the -n option of transmission-remote to access a daemon that was started with authentication enabled.
will list all the torrents!
