Cookie for Transmission-remote
Cookie for Transmission-remote
I want a cookie for transmission-remote so that I don't have to keep on using the username:password thing on the command line (I actually have an alias that includes it but it's the principle). I'll probably code it myself but I wanted to see if anyone had any input on the idea.

Re: Cookie for Transmission-remote
Small part from "transmission-remote --help":
Not sure if the .netrc option uses a default location but otherwise it would be simple to just extend it for that.
As for TR_AUTH, just export it from .bashrc (or the equivalent for whatever shell you're using).
Code: Select all
-ne --authenv Set authentication info from the
TR_AUTH environment variable
(user:pw)
-N --netrc <file> Set authentication info from a .netrc
file

Re: Cookie for Transmission-remote
I'm not really a big fan of storing passwords *anywhere* though (Though since transmission is single user and can be a unique password, not such a big deal but still...). Plus, ideally, it should be by default, not requiring a command line option.
