nzbget 0.7.0 and nzbgetweb 1.4 released

Post by hugbug » 26 Apr 2010, 21:56

nzbget 0.7.0

Changes since nzbget 0.6.0
  • added history: new option <KeepHistory>, new remote subcommand <H> for commands <L> (list history entries) and <E> (delete history entries, return history item, postprocess history item), new RPC-command <History> and subcommands <HistoryDelete>, <HistoryReturn>, <HistoryProcess> for command <EditQueue>;
  • added support for JSON-P (extension of JSON-RPC);
  • changed the result code returning status <ERROR> for postprocessing script from <1> to <94> (needed to show the proper script status in history);
  • improved the detection of new files in incoming nzb directory: now the scanner does not rely on system datum, but tracks the changing of file sizes during a last few (<NzbDirFileAge>) seconds instead;
  • improvements in example postprocessing script:
    1) if download contains only par2-files the script do not delete them during cleanup;
    2) if download contains only nzb-files the script moves them to incoming nzb-directory for further download;
  • improved formatting of groups and added time info in curses output mode;
  • added second pause register, which is independent of main pause-state and therfore is intended for usage from external scripts;
    that allows to pause download without interfering with options <ParPauseQueue> and <PostPauseQueue> and scheduler tasks <PauseDownload> and <UnpauseDownload> - they all work with first (default) pause register;
    new subcommand <D2> for commands <--pause/-P> and <--unpause/-U>;
    new RPC-command <pausedownload2> and <resumedownload2>;
    existing RPC-commands <pause> und <resume> renamed to <pausedownload> and <resumedownload>;
    new field <Download2Paused> in result struct for RPC-command <status>;
    existing fields <ServerPaused> and <ParJobCount> renamed to <DownloadPaused> and <PostJobCount>;
    old RPC-commands and fields still exist for compatibility;
    the status output of command <--list/-L> indicates the state of second pause register;
    key <P> in curses-frontend can unpause second pause-register;
  • nzbprocess-script (option <NZBProcess>) can now set category and post-processing parameters for nzb-file;
  • redesigned server pool and par-checker to avoid using of semaphores (which are very platform specific);
  • added subcommand <S> to remote commands <--pause/-P> and <--unpause/-U> to pause/unpause the scanning of incoming nzb-directory;
  • added commands <PauseScan> and <UnpauseScan> for scheduler option <TaskX.Command>;
  • added remote commands <PauseScan> and <ResumeScan> for XML-/JSON-RPC;
  • command <pause post-processing> now not only pauses the post-processing queue but also pauses the current post-processing job (par-job or script-job);
    however the script-job can be paused only after the next line printed to screen;
  • improved error reporting while parsing nzb-files;
  • added field <NZBID> to NZBInfo; the field is now returned by XML-/JSON-RPC methods <listfiles>, <listgroups> and <postqueue>;
  • improvements in configure script;
  • added support for platforms without IPv6 (they do not have <getaddrinfo>);
  • debug-messages generated on early stages during initializing are now printed to screen/log-file;
  • messages about obsolete options are now printed to screen/log-file;
  • imporved example postprocessing script: added support for external configuration file, postprocessing parameters and configuration via web-interface;
  • option <TaskX.Process> now can contain parameters which must be passed to the script;
  • added pausing/resuming for post-processor queue;
    added new modifier <O> to remote commands <--pause/-P> and <--unpause/-U>;
    added new commands <postpause> and <postresume> to XML-/JSON-RPC;
    extended output of remote command <--list/-L> to indicate paused state of post-processor queue; extended command <status> of XML-/JSON-RPC with field <PostPause>;
  • changed the command line syntax for requesting of post-processor queue from <-O> to <-L O> for consistency with other post-queue related commands (<-P O>, <-U O> and <-E O>);
  • improved example post-processing script: added support for delayed par-check (try unrar first, par-repair if unrar failed);
  • added modifier <O> to command <-E/--edit> for editing of post-processor-queue;
    following subcommands are supported: <+/-offset>, <T>, <B>, <D>;
    subcommand <D> supports deletion of queued post-jobs and active job as well;
    deletion of active job means the cancelling of par-check/repair or terminating of post-processing-script (including child processes of the script);
    updated remote-server to support new edit-subcommands in XML/JSON-RPC;
  • extended the syntax of option <TaskX.Time> in two ways:
    1) it now accepts multiple comma-separated values;
    2) an asterix as hours-part means <every hour>;
  • added svn revision number to version string (commands <-v> and <-V>, startup log entry);
    svn revision is automatically read from svn-repository on each build;
  • added estimated remaining time and better distinguishing of server state in command <--list/-L>;
  • added new return code (93) for post-processing script to indicate successful processing; that results in cleaning up of download queue if option <ParCleanupQueue> is active;
  • added readonly options <AppBin>, <ConfigFile> and <Version> for usage in processing scripts (options are available as environment variables <NZBOP_APPBIN>, <NZBOP_CONFIGFILE> and <NZBOP_VERSION>);
  • renamed ParStatus constant <FAILED> to <FAILURE> for a consistence with ScriptStatus constant <FAILURE>, that also affects the results of RPC-command <history>;
  • added a new return code <95/POSTPROCESS_NONE> for post-processing scripts for cases when pp-script skips all post-processing work (typically upon a user's request via a pp-parameter);
    modified the example post-processing script to return the new code instead of a error code when a pp-parameter <PostProcess> was set to <no>;
  • added field <PostTime> to result of RPC-Command <listfiles> and fields <MinPostTime> and <MaxPostTime> for command <listgroups>;
  • in <curses> and <colored> output-modes the download speed is now printed with one decimal digit when the speed is lower than 10 KB/s;
  • improvement in example post-processing script: added check for existence of <unrar> and command <wc>;
  • added shell batch file for windows (nzbget-shell.bat);
    thanks to orbisvicis (orbisvicis@users.sourceforge.net) for the script;
  • added debian style init script (nzbgetd);
    thanks to orbisvicis (orbisvicis@users.sourceforge.net) for the script;
  • added the returning of a proper HTTP error code if the authorization was failed on RPC-calls;
    thanks to jdembski (jdembski@users.sourceforge.net) for the patch;
  • changed the sleep-time during the throttling of bandwidth from 200ms to 10ms in order to achieve better uniformity;
  • modified example postprocessing script to not use the command <dirname>, which is not always available;
    thanks to Ger Teunis for the patch;
  • improved example post-processing script: added the check for existence of destination directory to return a proper ERROR-code (important for reprocessing of history items);
  • by saving the queue to disk now using relative paths for the list of compeled files to reduce the file's size;
  • eliminated few compiler warnings on GCC;
  • fixed: when option <DaemonUserName> was specified and nzbget was started as root, the lockfile was not removed;
  • fixed: nothing was downloaded when the option <Retries> was set to <0>;
  • fixed: base64 decoding function used by RPC-method <append> sometimes failed, in particular when called from Ruby-language;
  • fixed: JSON-RPC-commands failed, if parameters were placed before method name in the request;
  • fixed: RPC-method <append> did not work properly on Posix systems (it worked only on Windows);
  • fixed compilation error when using native curses library on OpenSolaris;
  • fixed linking error on OpenSolaris when using GnuTLS;
  • fixed: option <ContinuePartial> did not work;
  • fixed: seg. fault in service mode on program start (Windows only);
  • fixed: environment block was not passed correctly to child process, what could result in seg faults (windows only);
  • fixed: returning the postprocessing exit code <92 - par-check all collections> when there were no par-files results in endless calling of postprocessing script;
  • fixed compatibility issues with OS/2.
Changes since nzbget 0.7.0-testing-r380
  • fixed: elapsed time for active post-processing job was calculated incorrectly if the post-processor queue was paused; that could cause the interruption of active par-job when using the option <ParTimeLimit>.
