Transmission run 2 instances at the same time

Hi,

Would it be possible to launch 2 instance at the same time like jhmiller implements for sickbeard/sabnzbd for transmission? (Greetings from David)

If you ask why, I would be able to dedicate a instance for CP, and the other (or others) to manage separately my new FileBot renammer scripts for series (tanks David yet).

It would also be nice to be able to execute multiple instances for those who use custom fork with torrent on CP, SB and HP.

tanks and keep it up!

Too bad it's so complicated. I am not alone in wanting 2 instances for transmission. This is not really to have 2 daemons that would be interesting but turn your good 2 interfaces plugins. But if you can not, I will arrange otherwise. thank you anyway.

Otherwise, for that touch the subject. You never thought of creating a plugin for Deluge?

The plugin for transmission is provided because the webUI of transmission doesn't provide enough for settings, if you know settings.json, you know what I mean.

Yes I know what you mean. And, I know how to install a second transmission, I have experienced ubuntu server in the past, you simply need to install in a new folder and create a transmissionbt(2) daemon. But I am a semi-beginner Linux, if I want to reproduce the user interface as the current plugins on OMVUI it's complicated?

Deluge has all of its config directly from their own webUI, except the logging options. So a plugin similar to transmission would be a big effort. But to simplify it like sickbeard, sabnzbd or headphones is doable I guess.
Yes, because a lot of people like to use Deluge and do not necessarily have the skills to install the script jhmiller or manually through the cli.

The second instance of transmission, I am still curious if you need another /var/lib/transmission-daemon folder to do that.

Added to omv-extras 1.0.16 and in the repo now.

You mean the plugin itself? or simply available for the possible addition of plugin?

thank you guys for the time spent on this thread

Thank you guys for the job. You are machines!

transmissionbt has a big UI in OMV. Sickbeard and sabnzbd have their own UI with their own configuration.

I've never done it but i guess you can can run a second instant with another init.d script, and another transmission config. I am not sure if you need a second /var/lib/transmission-daemon folder.

I will raise the subject because I have an idea.. you tell me if this is plausible or not. I personally use Transmission Remote UI to manage the plugin via another PC. In Transmission Remote UI, you can change the server if you have multiple servers with Transmission. We could do the same with the plugin and display only one instance at a time? You know what I mean?

Yes. That's the idea. Most of transmission content gets filled automatically by the rpc from other software. But I am still curious about the real use of a second instance. I didn't understand the first explanation.

In my case specifically.

An instance only for Couchpotato
An instance would be to use my download series with a output script that would run FileBot Renammer for each download completed. Thing I can not do all my file because it is simply configured to fetch info on TVDB to rename and move it to the desired location. If I had the opportunity to use other instance, I would use one for each automation like music, ebook, manga, my softwares, etc...

Another interesting case for my brother. If he has the ability to use multiple instances. He would use anything like me, but it would give access to a torrent client for family members.

When you think about it, there are several reasons to have multiple instances. Certe, we could simply use different torrent client, but TransmissionBT done nicely and is very flexible.

tank you,
