RSS feed of queue

[huleboeren]

Now I know that rss feeds are more used for non-changing stuff but I would love an RSS feed of the queue.
Would make it so much easier, to check if SABnzbd is downloading and what is downloading on my cellphone which has a builtin RSS reader

That would save me the trouble of loading up Opera Mini and typing the password for sabnzbd not to mention none of the themes display correctly


What do you think?

Searching for my past response to this issue I found a post that actual had a patch for adding an RSS feed of the queue http://forums.sabnzbd.org/index.php?topic=402.0 that I somehow missed.

I tweaked it a bit, but it works and looks like it might suit your needs. The nature of the data from the queue doesn't really comply with what RSS feeds do, but some people may find it useful so I will look into adding it.

Dont know how I missed that thread!

But how exactly do I use it?
Do I need decompile something? Because I cant find the interface.py

To edit you would need to be running from the source (not the .exe). That would involce installing python and the required dependencies (cheetah, yenc ect..).

Bah
Think Ill just wait until its implemented officially or find an alternative ^^

Also, kinda offtopic but another feature request

But is it possible to automatically prioritize the rss feeds you have, higher than what you added via the watchfolder/nzbdstatus/etc ?

Like this: queue:
Job 1 (from in nzb watch folder)
Job 2 (from nzbdstatus)
job 3 (from rss feed)
job 4 (from rss feed)

becomes like this: queue:
job 3
job 4
job 1
job 2


But obviously a new rss feed with new stuff should not prioritize higher than the old, just higher than the jobs not added via rss

Just wanted to bump this request.

Sounds like a good idea to have the RSS feed.

0.5.0 will allow this. Just have a bit of patience.

I'm patient. Just wanted to say it's a great idea. :)

Great work guys. \m/
