NzbLink Support

I read somewhere :) that there is a new method of adding nzbs:
nzblnk:?t=NAMEOFTHEFILE&h=HEADER&p=PASSWORD

even if the automatic fetching of the NZB wont be supported
(or will it be with some search engines to be defined by the user?)
it would make it easier if nzbget would check if the header is already in the downloadlist
and add the corresponding password to it...?

THx,
Isarrider

I honestly don't have a clue what you are talking about.

That is something that is tested in 1 forum that distributes nzb files. They are testing a tool that will get an nzb from such a posted "link" and send it to sab or nzbget. This is still a closed beta test (forum staff only).

So nothing to do with nzbget and is not even a standardized link, just proprietary solution from them. With a Tool that will be released to public maybe some day (they test it already since forever).

Ok, thanks for explanation.
I guess existing browser extensions (for nzbget) could be extended to support this other link format.

Hi,
now there a ref implementation:
https://github.com/nzblnk/nzb-monkey/tree/master/src

As I dont like running external programs,
maybe more people would enjoy having it in nzbget integrated?

Thx

Hi there,

prinz2311 is right. The NZBLNK is a URL Scheme to trigger 3rd party software with necessary information to find and download a NZB referred by a header and provide this NZB including a password to a download solution like NZBGet.

This behavior is already implemented in a python tool called NZB Monkey. Download here.

The URL Scheme itself is documented here.

NZBGet does not contain any search functionality so it doesnt make sense to implement this in NZBGet. :ugeek:
