@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.

Thanks @stevenhoneyman. This is my first foray into AUR management, so I'll do my best.

Getting this error with the latest update /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/twisted/internet/_sslverify.py:184: UserWarning: You do not have the service_identity module installed. Please install it from <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/service_identity>. Without the service_identity module and a recent enough pyOpenSSL tosupport it, Twisted can perform only rudimentary TLS client hostnameverification. Many valid certificate/hostname mappings may be rejected. verifyHostname, VerificationError = _selectVerifyImplementation() Downgrade python2-twisted-14.0.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz -> twisted-13.2.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz resolves the issue

@samaelson1, I'd be glad to take over the package, if you want to orphan it.

This package is in dire need of love. Is the maintainer MIA?

mkaito commented on 2014-04-11 12:15 (UTC)

Please include a user level systemd unit, in /usr/lib/systemd/user/flexget.service: [Unit] Description=FlexGet Daemon After=network.target [Service] ExecStart=/bin/flexget daemon start ExecStop=/bin/flexget daemon stop ExecReload=/usr/bin/flexget daemon reload [Install] WantedBy=default.target

python2-certifi is obsolete, so you can remove it from depends.
