pre-queue script input parameters

[squareatom]

What is meant by "The sorting info is passed independent on the actual Sorting settings. Only the SeasonSort method will be used for analysis." on http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/user-pre-queue-script?

Also, for input parameters 8-11 what are they supposed to be? They are just blank.

For example, these are values returned when NZB "Revolution.2012.S01E03.720p.HDTV.X264-DIMENSION.nzb"

Sample script:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
f=~/tmp/pre-queue.out
echo " \$8: '$8'" >> $f
echo " \$9: '$9'" >> $f
echo "\$10: '${10}'" >> $f                                                                                                                                      
echo "\$11: '${11}'" >> $f

Output from script:

Code: Select all

 $8: ''
 $9: ''
$10: ''
$11: ''

If possible, I would like to access the Series Sorting variables in a pre-queue script and change them.

I means that the "TV Sort" algorithm is used to determine season and episode.
8 : Show name
9 : Season (1..99)
10 : Episode (1..99)
11: Episode name

Only it isn't working due to a bug that sneaked in somewhere in the 0.7.x series.
It will be fixed in 0.7.4

Thanks for the quick response. I'm on 0.7.4RC2 and the fields are blank. So I guess it's not fixed yet? Is there any other way to access "TV Sorting" values?

[shypike]

I said 0.7.4, not 0.7.4RC2
Will be out soon.

[squareatom]

Sounds good! Is there any other way to access "TV Sorting" values in the mean time? Like calling a python sabnzbd function?

[shypike]

Just wait until tomorrow

[squareatom]

Oh you're quick with the replies

Sweet, didn't realize it would be so soon!

I think this is what I am looking for tho in lieu of the pre-queue.

Code: Select all

from sabnzbd.tvsort import SeriesSorter

def analyse_show(name):
    """ Do a quick SeasonSort check and return basic facts """
    job = SeriesSorter(name, None, None)                                                                                                                      
    if job.is_match():
        job.get_values()
    info = job.show_info
    return info.get('show_name', ''), \
           info.get('season_num', ''), \
           info.get('episode_num', ''), \
           info.get('ep_name', '')

[shypike]

That's the code from SABnzbd.
It misses one line, which will be in 0.7.4

Code: Select all

from sabnzbd.tvsort import SeriesSorter

def analyse_show(name):
    """ Do a quick SeasonSort check and return basic facts """
    job = SeriesSorter(name, None, None)                                                                                                                     
    job.match(force=True)

    if job.is_match():
        job.get_values()
    info = job.show_info
    return info.get('show_name', ''), \
           info.get('season_num', ''), \
           info.get('episode_num', ''), \
           info.get('ep_name', '')

I added the line and still no input values 8-11. Guess there is more to the bug than just that function but thanks for the info. I'll just wait for 0.7.4

[shypike]

Are you using that piece of code in your own script?
It won't work, because the underlying tvsort code requires
quite a few parameters to be set up.

[squareatom]

Nah I changed it in newsunpack.py. I was going to try in my own script but you just saved me to trouble.

You changed it in SABnzbd itself and it still doesn't work?
That would be bad news. It works for me.
BTW: the title should have the proper formatting, like "Show S01E04 name" or "Show 1x04 name".
Something like "Winter in 1995" will not give parameters.

[squareatom]

Whoops. You're correct. It works. I just needed to restart Sabnzbd. Not sure why I didn't think of that before.

EDIT: So is the following still true? Or will values of output lines 8-11 be applied to TV Sorting?

Code: Select all

SABnzbd uses the first 7 lines of output, so they should only contain proper data (or be empty).
Anything after line 7 is ignored.
