How to do a "Resume now" from transmission-remote?

Post by szafran »

Hi,

I'd like to know how can I do a "Resume now" (available from web GUI/GTK+ GUI) from transmission-remote.
Can't seem to find any info on how to do it anywhere.
Simple "-t 1 -s" just adds paused torrents to the queue, but I want to make some torrent to force download from my script.

The transmission-remote program has no option to do this.

No.

All the queue functionality, which includes "Resume Now", is intended for the GUI clients.

Since transmission-remote is mainly a tool for use in scripts, I don't think the functionality will be added. But you can always ask for it in a request; a good use case would help (as in: why not use the Web client to do this).

Actually this is for use with my script :D
I don't suppose that after that time I'd bother myself to posting a request, and getting back in to my script to get a use case.
Anyways - my script worked without it untill now - suppose it'll work for years like that ;)
