transmission create torrent

  • Hi all, I have searched and found nothing that says we can't or can create a torrent. with transmission. can we create torrents with this plugin or is it just for downloading?
    i'm using omv 2.2.1.4
    transmission is the latest version.


    Thanks

  • i tried to run;
    transmissioncli -n sourceFile -a http://YourTracker/ -r sourceFile.torrent
    I changed what needed changing and my output is below. i'll play with this and if i sort it out at least this may serve as a guide.

  • ok sorted it out.


    to create a torrent you use
    transmission-create -n full path to source file -t https:// your tracker url -r full path to source file.torrent


    the first -t is so transmission knows your using you tracker announce url. not sure what the last -r does but with out that i-it failed for me.
    just know the file you create will be put in the home folder. so i just copied my created .torrent to a folder i had access to with the gui.


    on a side note make sure any new folders created have the right permissions. i did create a new folder called created torrents to work from, so until i added the right permissions i was getting errors like no such directory.
    hope this helps.
