Re: Properly shutting down sabnzbd

Well, this just checks the PID and kills the process. But is this safe? And what's also somewhat inconvenient is that the sabnzbd PID filename has the port included. This requires the user to change the port in an environment file.

Properly shutting down sabnzbd

I am the package maintainer of sabnzbd for Arch Linux and I want to write a decent systemd service file. The problem is however in closing sabnzbd.

Re: How to add an NZB from the command line

How do you do it in Windows? It must be somewhat the same, as python and the http calls are platform independent.

How to add an NZB from the command line

I am writing a .desktop file for sabnzbd, so I can just click on my NZBs to load them into SABnzbd. What I don't know is what URL I should call to add a file. Or should I invoke a python script?
