  • Deluge 1.3.5 on Windows 7

( Requires 7-zip to be installed on the system running the client resp. the daemon if run in daemon mode )

Build Instructions

To build the python egg file:

  python setup.py bdist_egg

Installation Instructions

Download the egg file of the plugin.

Notes

  • Plugin eggs have the Python version encoded in the filename and will only load in Deluge if the versions match. (e.g. Plugin-1.0-py2.7.egg is a Python 2.7 egg.)

  • On *nix systems, you can verify Python version with: python --version

  • The bundled Python version for Windows executable is 2.6 and for MacOSX Deluge.app it is 2.7.

  • If a plugin does not have a Python version available it is usually possible to rename it to match your installed version (e.g. Plugin-1.0-py2.6.egg to Plugin-1.0-py2.7.egg) and it will still run normally

GUI-Install:

Preferences -> Plugins -> Install plugin

Locate the downloaded egg file and select it.

Manual Install:

Copy the egg file into the plugins directory in Deluge config:

Linux/*nix:

~/.config/deluge/plugins

Windows:

%APPDATA%\deluge\plugins

Client-Server Setups:

When running the Deluge daemon, deluged and the Deluge client on separate computers, the plugin must be installed on both of them. When installing the egg through the GTK client it will be placed in the plugins directory of your computer, as well as copied over to the computer running the daemon.

Note: If the Python versions on the server and desktop computer do not match, you will have to copy the egg file to the server manually.

For example in the setup below you will have to install the py2.6 egg on the desktop as you normal would do but then manually install the py2.7 egg onto the server.

  • Windows desktop with Python 2.6 running GTK client.
  • Linux server with Python 2.7 running deluged

Note: The Windows installer comes bundled with python: either python 2.6 or 2.7 depending on the intstaller you used.
