@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 for the comments. For now I just updated it to the latest version still using python2, I will look into the migration to python3 and the creation of all dependency packages.

Just in case, a brief of what I did to upgrade to 2.2.20 and at the same time migrate to python3 (none of the new pkgs are in AUR): flexget -> 2.2.20 -> CHANGE to python3 -> REMOVE all #AUR# on deps -> REMOVE "prepare" -> NEW DEPENDENCY python-pathlib -> MOVED from OPT to DEP (really opt?) python-transmissionrpc python-rarfile https://pypi.python.org/packages/7b/eb/58d9e635e9be0aebb7977f56c0696bbc39b308eccde494ea98257bf5a3d9/FlexGet-2.2.20.tar.gz sha256sums 42b49386fd5f0bb60e1e920d2a5eb5651c9ef0d0df12f464fe2d3a3d64dcef87 python-apscheduler -> 3.2.0 https://pypi.python.org/packages/c8/40/16a2df29261992cee18f6cba9731d9101302cc76d24794a332f6e567fe2f/APScheduler-3.2.0.tar.gz sha256sums 5baa1195ba711868fae257612cf80372ff1124014ca896884bf132f75636f638 python-flask-restful -> REMOVE python2 python-rpyc -> REMOVE python2 python-flask-compress -> new python3 python-flask-cors -> new python3 python-flask-restplus086 -> new python3 python-flask-restplus -> new python3 (required 086, only for completeness) python-rednose -> new python3 (prior deps on this) python-termstyle -> new python3 (prior deps on this) python-safe -> new python3 python-pynzb -> new python3 python-pytvmaze -> new python3 python-pathlib -> new python3

requiers guessit<=2.0.4

Thanks, I asked in upstream IRC, and decided to use virtualenv + pip do install it for a given user.

sleduc commented on 2016-04-28 17:54 (UTC)

Unfortunately I do not think this is possible. In fact I guess it would require some modification of the code of Flexget to be more "modular". But I fear we can't do much on the "packaging" side since flexget will not even start if one dependency is missing. Maybe you could ask this question "upstream" (in https://github.com/Flexget/Flexget/issues)

adam900710 commented on 2016-04-28 02:50 (UTC)

Any idea to stripe off the so many python dependency? Or is there any option to disable features which I won't need? Personally speaking, I just need flexget to filter torrents and download to given dir. Nothing more, the dependency makes me quite scared though.

sleduc commented on 2016-03-18 19:54 (UTC)

Thanks, I updated the dependency (and the package version), it should all work correctly now.

cgirard commented on 2016-03-18 09:44 (UTC)

OK, sorry about this. I've created python2-flask-restplus086 for Flexget and updated the SRCINFO of python2-flask-restplus.

mkaito commented on 2016-03-18 02:24 (UTC)

I installed restplus 0.8.6 manually, and it seems like things work again. I guess cgirard might have to revert the update, if he was specifically holding back for flexget.
