@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.

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

mkaito commented on 2014-11-07 02:27 (UTC)

Also requires `python2-tzlocal` now.

@jarondl - I see that now. I'll update the package later today or tomorrow.

jarondl commented on 2014-11-06 17:12 (UTC)

There is a new dependency - python2-apscheduler

Upstream is no longer offering a versioned package for download. Recommend using pip2arch from pkgtools to generate the PKGBUILD.

1. python2-paver is a build/packaging tool, akin to the use of waf in mpv. I do not have a strong opinion about this, but I'm sure it works without python2-paver. I don't know how well it will work with python2-paver in the long run, but from the looks of commit b6854cc it's not an entirely smooth change between different paver versions -- upstream requires a specific paver version because newer versions may break their setup; that's my opinion, but you may want to ping upstream to make sure. 2. python2-setuptools provides python2-distribute. Yes we're certain.

@lolilolicon - what do you mean by "...is python2-paver required? Upstream seems to perfer a particular version ('paver==1.2.3') and have it handled automatically at build time?" I was under the impression that if it's a dependency, regardless of whether or not flexget "deals with it at build time," it's still good stewardship to make sure the package call for it? In other words - I believe that an AUR package should pull in it's dependencies via PKGBUILD, NOT via some framework-specific package management system. Good to know about python2-distribute, though it's obsolete, are we certain it's not in use by flexget?

lolilolicon commented on 2014-10-07 06:23 (UTC)

As a matter of fact, /usr/bin/flexget requires at runtime python2-setuptools, so it should be a depend rather than just a makedepend. Note also python2-distribute is obsolete. Finally, is python2-paver required? Upstream seems to perfer a particular version ('paver==1.2.3') and have it handled automatically at build time.

Version bump to 1.2.199 * Removed python2-argparse as requirement per fix of https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/42063 * Added makedep python2-setuptools

rbellamy commented on 2014-09-22 17:35 (UTC)

@lolilolicon, thanks for the information. I'm watching the bug, and will remove the python2-argparse dependency as soon as python2-stevedore is corrected.
