Automatically Extract Rar Files Downloaded With Transmission

[cemoka]

Dear Keenetic Team

 

is it possible to add Unpack / Unrar Completed torrents script to download center.? there are lots of pre tested and working scripts for transmmisions. The idea here download torrent and extract download rar files and add to the media server.

I'm attaching one sample script file.

posttorrent.sh

We have opkg subsystem exactly for this purpose.

thanks for your feedback

 

I definitely agree with you but installing OPKG and installing unrar is easy but adding any script to transmission(download center) needs a pro help.

I really don't understand why RAR archives must be unpacked automatically for all users. So what about zips? tarballs?
If you provide any backed user story we can discuss it further, but now it sounds strange.

What about archives compressed with ultra settings? They may require a lot of ram memory and extraction can be cpu intensive. Router won't be able to extract them.

first of all I want to thank for all people who contributed such a great software. thanks for saving us from boring Broadcom default gui. It is well designed and include every needs of soho users. I'm not just a simple user but also I worked nearly 10 year for one of the biggest modem(ADSL/VDSL) supplier for Turkish Telekom. 

if you download something(movie, game, application etc) from privet tracker site there are some rules to release that content. they have to be in rar format and must be split.  After every download you have to extract it. for 4k releases it is very time consuming thing. I tested manual unrar command it worked perfectly(30-40 gb extracted). But if I can add a simple script it will be automated.

Unfortunately we have no shell an coreutils in our software, but there is an option for users of DSL devices: you can install opkg in the flash. Right now it is available only in unofficial 2.16 branch, but stay tuned.

Our software is written from scratch and we don't use BCM chips - we use econet's/mediatek's ones.
