How to a Find a Torrent's Hash with transmission-remote?

Post by Renara »

Okay, so I currently have Transmission v2.82 and I'm trying to write a little helper script, but to run most commands on transmission-remote you need to know the hash of a torrent, but I'm hoping to instead do it by name.
However, I can't seem to find a way to do that with only transmission-remote, as the --list option doesn't return hashes, is there another way to find a torrent's hash?

If you have torrent name then `--list` tells you exactly what you need, since instead of hash you could also use torrent ID (first column in the list).
