Lionhearted Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 I have a seedbox with a disk space limit. uTorrent is configured to download via RSS feed, so the number of torrents goes up. Obviously at some point I will have to get rid of some. Because there's more than a hundred torrents currently running, I was trying to create a very small Ruby class that would prune torrents in a sensible way. I'd want to get rid of the oldest, biggest, least popular torrents automatically while saving the more popular ones.Unfortunately the Web API doesn't seem to give data on the dates a torrent was added or completed. Why is this (basic) information excluded? Is there a roundabout way of obtaining the same information? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Alderaan Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 It simply wasn't included in the first public installment of the Web API back in 2006, and that Web API hasn't been changed since. But in 2.1 they are expanding the Web API and I'm hoping they will now expose Added On, Completed On and Last Active. All three as timestamps (for caching purposes).

bcode Posted July 26, 2010 Report Share Posted July 26, 2010 Any word on the progress of this API addition?Seems to be the most requested WebUI item but has been seemingly ignored by the core Dev team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
