How to view live script output in history tab/api while post processing is ongoing?

Post by sanjitsinhaa »

Hey.

I am trying to write a post processing script which run in loop and print update of progress in percentage in the terminal, but i am not able to view live progress bar in history section. It only show the final print statement after the script is completely finished.

Is there any way by which i can get live terminal output from my api?

I don't think there is a way to get live updates of that output from sab while your postproc script is running, from either the web interface or the API.

Maybe we could add it though, we just don't expose it but we do capture all output line by line while running.

I found the solution. I am redirecting my progress output to sabnzbd log and direclty writing progress in log file. I can retrieve this info in history section or via history API.
