Ubuntu 使用 transmission

安装

sudo apt-get install transmission-cli transmission-common transmission-daemon

配置文件
/var/lib/transmission-daemon/info/settings.json
更改配置文件的时候需要先停止Transmission
sudo service transmission-daemon stop
Username and Password
“rpc-password”: “{62b16db87b89a91dd49a5110a7cafc06d20eb4f2wtK6kqPj”,
“rpc-username”: “transmission”，

Whitelist
This must be changed for remote access

rpc-whitelist defines access to transmission. Localhost (127.0.0.1) is defined by default. I added ,192.268.. to allow any machine on my LAN access.
“rpc-whitelist”: “127.0.0.1,192.168..”,

“umask” parameter
You will also have to set the “umask” parameter in Transmission’s settings file to “2” (default is 18) for the account user to have full access to files/folders created by Transmission.

“umask”: 2,
Transmission Restart
After configuration change, restart transmission

sudo service transmission-daemon start

Default File Directory
Place a torrent file in this directory for automatic file download

/var/lib/transmission-daemon/downloads/
Configure Users and Permissions
It is recommended that Transmission runs under it’s own username for security reasons. This creates a few issues with file and folder access by Transmission as well as your account (let us assume it is user).

Add the username user to the group debian-transmission:

sudo usermod -a -G debian-transmission user
NOTE: Change “user” to you own Ubuntu user login name.

NOTE: When adding a user to a new group, the user must log out and log back in for it to take affect. A reboot will also accomplish this.

Transmission Daemon
Starting and Stopping Transmission Daemon
After install Transmission, the daemon will be started automatically (but not accessible yet). You can start and stop Transmission daemon using the following commands
sudo service transmission-daemon start
sudo service transmission-daemon stop
sudo service transmission-daemon reload
Note:Restarting (or reloading) Transmission daemon can be tricky. Restarting the the daemon (while it is already running) would rewrite the Transmission settings files to its original state. In other words, restarting the Transmission daemon would reset all the custom settings you saved.

Bash Aliases
Create shortcuts add the following bash aliases to /home/user/.bash_aliases

sudo nano /home/user/.bash_aliases

alias t-start=‘sudo service transmission-daemon start’
alias t-stop=‘sudo service transmission-daemon stop’
alias t-reload=‘sudo service transmission-daemon reload’
alias t-list=‘transmission-remote -n ‘transmission:transmission’ -l’
alias t-basicstats=‘transmission-remote -n ‘transmission:transmission’ -st’
alias t-fullstats=‘transmission-remote -n ‘transmission:transmission’ -si’

source /home/user/.bash_aliases
Example
user@SVR:~$ t-list
will run

transmission-remote -n ‘transmission:transmission’ -l

Web Interface
With your browser you can now add torrents, download and seed. You can also configure many transmission settings.

http://server-ip:9091

Command Line Interface
With a headless server full control of Transmission requires CLI

Transmission Create
Create a torrent file with transmission CLI. Torrent files can be generated from either a single file or directories. The example below is a directory example

transmission-create -o /var/lib/transmission-daemon/downloads/files.torrent -c “My comments” -t udp://tracker.openbittorrent.com:80 -t udp://open.demonii.com:1337 -t udp://tracker.coppersurfer.tk:6969 -t udp://tracker.leechers-paradise.org:6969 ~/torrent/complete/
-o /var/lib/transmission-daemon/downloads/files.torrent

New torrent name and where to store the torrent

-c “My comments”

Any comments to be attached to the file

-t udp://tracker.openbittorrent.com:80

-t udp://open.demonii.com:1337

-t udp://tracker.coppersurfer.tk:6969

-t udp://tracker.leechers-paradise.org:6969

Trackers for the torrents, more than one tracker is recommended in case one or more goes down.

~/torrent/complete/

Directory to be made into a torrent. If a single file is required use this format “/var/lib/transmission-daemon/downloads/MyFile.txt”
