@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.

Out-of-date, this version breaks with python2-sqlalchemy 0.7.0. It's fixed in 1.0r2244.

Please change the dependency of cherrypy to python2-cherrypy.

<deleted-account> commented on 2011-04-05 17:25 (UTC)

Should be dependant on python2-yaml and not python-yaml This is probably also true of any other python libraries

<deleted-account> commented on 2011-04-03 04:15 (UTC)

This requires python2-yaml not python-yaml

pezz commented on 2011-03-21 05:39 (UTC)

Works after latest update, thanks!

<deleted-account> commented on 2011-03-20 23:58 (UTC)

It requires python2-feedparser instead of python-feedparser

pezz commented on 2011-03-20 08:14 (UTC)

Thanks for the update. Still appears to be broken after the recent python-feedparser upgrade. Not sure if you can do anything about it?

<deleted-account> commented on 2011-02-11 10:22 (UTC)

You'll want to update the dependency for pynzb to python2-pynzb

amrhassan commented on 2011-01-20 23:09 (UTC)

Also requires "python2-html5lib python-beautifulsoup python-yaml python-feedparser".

MarianoC: Now has been fixed, thanks
