ctide Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 I'd be handy if there was a way to download completed files directly from the Web UI. I can't imagine it'd be very tough to add in there, and it would simplify the process of getting files off my machine at home to my laptop at work.

rob5 Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 I'd also really like to see this feature added. Great idea, ctide! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 ??? Download completed files Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctide Posted July 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Yeah, be able to snag the files that you've downloaded remotely from the web UI.For example, we just run a torrent server on the network at home, so if I download something at work I just load up the web UI and queue it up. It'd be nice if I could just hit the web UI from work and download things that have finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 It's not an HTTP server... I doubt this will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctide Posted July 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 How does it respond to HTTP requests without an HTTP server? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 It IS an HTTP server, just a basic one.I don't see such a feature happening either, as the WebUI is only intended to control the client remotely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctide Posted July 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 It seems that all I need to do is write some javascript that will move files into a folder under webui, and then I can download them from there so I'm just going to hack that in.edit: Err, I guess I'd have to stuff the files into the zip wouldn't I?

Firon Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Yes, you would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 And you couldn't tell Javascript to move the files, either. Javascript is ignorant of local files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fjdslafjdsklaa Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 Here is what made, its a html file that should go on a web server on the machine utorrent is on. you could use iis or wamp as the server. just change according to you utorrent port and password for webui, these are surrounded by ***. on your web server, make a folder called downloads in the same directory as this html file, tell utorrent to put downloads in this directory. i used firefox to make this, so it will look best that way.<html><head><title>µTorrent Web UI</title><style>body{margin:0;padding:0;}#u{width:100%;height:90%;padding:0;margin:0;}#nav{width:100%;height:28px;background:#cccccc;padding:0;margin:0;}#nav li{float:left;list-style:none;padding:1px;padding-left:2px;padding-right:2px;margin:0;margin-right: 5px;margin-left: 5px;color:white;border:white 2px solid;-moz-border-radius:5px;}#nav li:hover{position:relative;cursor:pointer;top:-1px;left:-1px;float:left;list-style:none;padding:1px;padding-left:2px;padding-right:2px;margin:0;margin-right: 3px;margin-left: 5px;color:white;border:white 3px solid;-moz-border-radius:5px;}#nav ul{padding:0;margin:0;}#nav li a{color:white;padding:0;margin:0;}</style><script type="text/javascript">function changetouv() {document.getElementById('u').src = 'http://***WEBUI Username here***:***password goes here***@localhost:***port here***/gui/index.html';}function changetodl() {document.getElementById('u').src = 'downloads/';}</script></head><body><div id="nav"><ul><li id="uv" onclick="changetouv()">µTorrent Web UI</li><li id="dl" onclick="changetodl()">Download</li></ul></div><iframe frameborder="0" id="u" scrolling="no" src="http://***WEBUI Username here***:***password goes here***@localhost:***port here***/gui/index.html"></iframe></body></html>Another approach would be to create an alias to your utorrent download directory. If you use wamp server, you can simply click the task bar icon -> Apache -> alias directories -> add an alias. type downloads, then type you utorrent downloads path. this will make a directory on your site, localhost/downloads. then change ths line:document.getElementById('u').src = 'downloads/';to this:document.getElementById('u').src = 'localhost/downloads/';you would want to do this if you don't want to move you download location.a note on the web UI devs: just create an alias with Apache as described. add a context menu item the links to the file in the alias directory. Example:<a href="http://localhost/downoadalias/dynamic filename">Download</a>Please comment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
