HCLivess Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 anti-webui users remind me of fascist. "not a bit for anyone else if WE don't need it"... it was said that this feature is EASY to implement apart from Azureus DHT! I hate such arrogant attitudes. I'm for it!

1c3d0g Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 Relax, it's going to be implemented already. Quit asking for it, that's what I hate. Same damn threads asking for the same damn thing. Patience! :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruners Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 For those who whant a web interface, why not just make a simple upload script with php, and host it on etc ISS or Apache (I believe they are booh free?)Make a secure login, and a feature to download torrent files from a url, or upload from the computer you are using.Then use the already intergrated features in µTorrent, like "Put new downloads in: /downloads/incomplete/", "Move completed downloads to: /downloads/complete" and "Automatically load torrents in directory: /downloads/torrents/" to complete the system.Then you can make some nice reports based on what the different cataloges contains, wich should give you are view of what is done and whats still downloading.

dyck15 Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 For those who whant a web interface, why not just make a simple upload script with php, and host it on etc ISS or Apache (I believe they are booh free?)Make a secure login, and a feature to download torrent files from a url, or upload from the computer you are using.Then use the already intergrated features in µTorrent, like "Put new downloads in: /downloads/incomplete/", "Move completed downloads to: /downloads/complete" and "Automatically load torrents in directory: /downloads/torrents/" to complete the system.Then you can make some nice reports based on what the different cataloges contains, wich should give you are view of what is done and whats still downloading.That may be possible. My only question is how often does uTorrent check the "Automatically load torrents in directory" option? I was under the impression that it was only on start up, but I could be completely wrong. The only problem with this is that it will only allow you to add torrents, not pause/remove them. Getting the file sizes and completion % may be possible, but I would need to look into it. But it is deffinately a step in the right direction. I posted before that I am wanting a web interface as well. If we could just get some sort of query system I could easily build the PHP app to run it all. In fact, I would prefer a query-based system so that I could make my own web app with AJAX. I used to use Azueres but it was a memory hog. I hate not having a way to remotely manage my torrents, but I love uTorrent so I'm sticking with it.

Firon Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 About every second. It's monitoring the folder always using a windows function to see if the folder was modified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sumang007 Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Another vote for a good web interface! That's the main reason I used ABC, but I'm so sick of it crashing all the time (now switched to Azureus, but it's pretty bloaty).Cheers,Suman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfp Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Sweet good to hear its in progress. WEB UI is defintely a feature if bittorrent clients I use most. Using Azurues for over a year which is a well featured client, but at the severe cost of system resources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjard Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 If people so desperately request it, then it can be written as a separate programThe simplest solution i can think of is a program that checks a designated email address. Any emails arriving from person X with a .torrent file attached, and the program can start the torrent. A bit more effort and details can be scraped out of utorrent's listview of running torrents to provide stats, and with some more work, proper remote control would be possible. I'm fairly sure it can all be done without evenchangng the utorrent exe.. just make another exe (though the job would be greatly simplified if utorrent had a way of connecting and pulling an xml stream with info on the running torrents/pushing commands to manage torrents) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Directrix Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 If you want to take a look, click here. Its using the mAqua Coloured theme by FOOOD. Positive comments are very welcome!

Firon Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 The web UI will not be integrated, it'll be stand-alone. Of course, the functionality for it to work will be coded into the standard utorrent.exe, but the UI itself and so forth will be standalone. Don't wanna bloat the client after all.

Ghost21 Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 @Directrix:Nice, but do the icons really work? Other clients' web UI usually only have text links.@Firon:Very good. So you can run it only when needed. Those who don't use it won't complain of the 'bloat'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 The icons don't work yet, but the WebUI is in an alpha state. They will when it's finished. There will also be a "standard" HTML version for old PCs/clients and so on. And yes, that's the point of having it standalone, to not bloat the client for a feature not that many people need/use.

1c3d0g Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Beautiful, just beautiful! FOOOD's icons should be standard in µTorrent...*hint*Ludde*hint*... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splintax Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Wow, that looks much nicer than what I saw yesterday. I don't think most of the DHTML was working in Opera though, I'll have to try it out in another browser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HCLivess Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 oh my god! It looks wonderful! Keep up the great work. What about a pre-release? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Directrix Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 First, thank you for all the postive comments. I was joking about the negative comments; please start typing.@Ghost21: The icons do work.@1c3d0g: We all love candy.@Splintax: I have now made it more-or-less compatible with Firefox, Opera, and IEvil. @HCLivess: A pre-release is available only in special cases where people have donated over 100 USD . The webui still needs allot of work and isn't quite ready for pre-releasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HCLivess Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 may I ask how much time is approximately left for the first public version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 I'd say it'll be a while longer, seeing as how a lot of work is still needed... The standard answer? When it's ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s168pin Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Just out of interest, will this include a WAP version? Because that was very handy when I used ABC.No worries if it doesn't, but it would be quite a nice feature...
