@cmm11 I added this file /usr/lib/systemd/system/flexget.service with the intention of reducing the running permissions for users who use flexget-webui. Users using the webui can directly run command within the webui. If you have to run these commands from the command line, traditional su cannot do it because the shell of the flexget user is /usr/bin/nologin and login is prohibited.

  • You can run sudo -u flexget flexget -c /var/lib/flexget/config.yml execute --task task_name

  • Or You can use the gosu that I just packaged to implement: sudo gosu <user>:<group> <command>, for example: sudo gosu flexget:flexget flexget -c /var/lib/flexget/config.yml execute --task task_name.

If you are using /usr/lib/systemd/system/flexget.service, you can add a alias in your shell rc file: alias flexget="sudo -u flexget /usr/bin/flexget -c /var/lib/flexget/config.yml or alias flexget="sudo gosu flexget:flexget /usr/bin/flexget -c /var/lib/flexget/config.yml".

After taking over Flexget, I had

  • Added flexget-webui and flexget-webui-v1 in optdepends, you can install and enable webui if you need. When using webui, it is recommended to use /usr/lib/systemd/system/flexget.service I have newly added.
  • Fixed dependency packages.
  • Added /usr/lib/systemd/system/flexget.service to run as a system user, the original methods that run as normal user still exists: /usr/lib/systemd/system/flexget@.service and /usr/lib/systemd/user/flexget.service.
  • Removed check function in PKGBUILD due to the official testing of flexget before release.

If upgrade fail, you should remove old flexget first, and reinstall.

@jarondl - paying the bills! Get slammed at work. (: Thanks for the offer, but I just need to get through this week and I'll get it done this weekend.

Hi @rbellamy, what causes the delay? Can I help?

jarondl commented on 2014-11-09 16:45 (UTC)

Hu @rbellamy, python2-apscheduler was adopted by me and updated to a current version, so you can update flexget. P.S. Why is the changelog included in the tar ball?

willemw commented on 2014-11-08 16:58 (UTC)

'python2' can be listed, however it is not really necessary. It's a bit of overkill. That's all I meant. Flexget already indirectly depends on 'python2': see the 'depends' list.

jarondl commented on 2014-11-08 16:36 (UTC)

Hi @willemw, python2-apscheduler was never in the AUR PKGBUILD version, but was added in the archlinuxarm version (by me actually), when updating to 1.2.214. Maybe I should have bumped the pkgrel there by ".1". I hope that on the next version (1.2.215, which was already released) the packages will be in sync. Why shouldn't python2 be listed? it is definitely depended upon.

willemw commented on 2014-11-08 14:06 (UTC)

I have flexget installed on two machines. Both are version 1.2.214-1. One has python2-apscheduler in 'depends' (on archlinuxarm), the other has not (on archlinux). Did you remove python2-apscheduler from 'depends' without increasing pkgrel? The archlinuxarm repo still has the old 1.2.214-1 PKGBUILD file it seems. 'pacaur -Si flexget' or 'yaourt -Si flexget' does not display all the properties or displays syntax errors. I think it's because of '#AUR#' in 'depends'. Also, python2 does not need to be listed in 'depends'.

rbellamy commented on 2014-11-07 16:41 (UTC)

I'm going to wait until python2-apscheduler is updated before trying to fix this build. @jarondl - what do you mean when you say "If you let flexget download the egg..."?

jarondl commented on 2014-11-07 08:33 (UTC)

@mkaito your problem is that the aur version of APScheduler is old. The sqlalchemy stuff was renamed some time in between 2.1.1 and 3.0.1. Install the new apscheduler, you can use this: ( https://github.com/jarondl/AUR/blob/update-APScheduler/python2-apscheduler/PKGBUILD ) and check again.

jarondl commented on 2014-11-07 08:00 (UTC)

@mkaito I don't think flexget requires python2-tzlocal, but that python2-apscheduler should require it. If you let flexget download the egg, it downloads the new APScheduler version, which requires python2-tzlocal

This might be an upstream bug, but: File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/flexget/plugins/daemon/scheduler.py", line 7, in <module> from apscheduler.jobstores.sqlalchemy import SQLAlchemyJobStore ImportError: No module named sqlalchemy
