Launches Flexget in daemon mode in the background.
Download the zip file. Unzip and move the .app file whereever you would like it.
Double-click on it to run. It should flash a small window then disappear. You can confirm the daemon is running from Terminal:
flexget daemon status
You should see something like this appear:
2014-02-05 02:04 INFO manager Daemon running. (PID: 6452)
To stop the daemon, run this command in Terminal:
flexget daemon stop
If you have a .bash_profile file in your home directory, this app will source it when running. This is to allow certain environment variables to be set correctly (most notably PYTHONPATH for those running Deluge in a different site-packages directory than where Flexget is installed). If you don't want this to occur:
- Right-click on the app file and choose Show Package Contents.
- Click (or double-click) to open the Contents folder, then Resources.
- Use your favorite text editor to open the
scriptfile. - Remove the line
. ~/.bash_profileor edit it to suit your needs. You can also adjust the path to Python.
To set PYTHONPATH directly, add this line before the line that starts with /usr:
export PYTHONPATH=/your/path/to/site-packages
As of 2/14/14 (release v1.0) the below should no longer be occurring.
Please note due to an apparent bug in the Flexget daemon implementation, this method employs something of a workaround to launch. If you run flexget execute commands from Terminal while the daemon is running, you may see lines like this: Traceback (most recent call last): They are safe to ignore.
I am putting this into the public domain and to the fullest extent possible am relinquishing any copyright interest in the files in this repository.
This bundle contains a simple script that launches Flexget and does not contain any Flexget code or resources. This project was not created, and is not maintained, by Flexget.
