This is a simple example script from dev.deluge-torrent.org for interacting with the Deluge API.
Nothing happens after reactor.run() and I don't get the "Connection was successful" message, it just hangs forever.
I ran this on my Ubuntu machine where it works fine, but I couldn't get it to work on my Windows machine where i really want to put it to use.
from deluge.ui.client import client
# Import the reactor module from Twisted - this is for our mainloop
from twisted.internet import reactor
# Set up the logger to print out errors
from deluge.log import setupLogger
setupLogger()
# Connect to a daemon running on the localhost
# We get a Deferred object from this method and we use this to know if and when
# the connection succeeded or failed.
d = client.connect()
# We create a callback function to be called upon a successful connection
def on_connect_success(result):
print "Connection was successful!"
print "result:", result
# Disconnect from the daemon once we successfully connect
client.disconnect()
# Stop the twisted main loop and exit
reactor.stop()
# We add the callback to the Deferred object we got from connect()
d.addCallback(on_connect_success)
# We create another callback function to be called when an error is encountered
def on_connect_fail(result):
print "Connection failed!"
print "result:", result
# We add the callback (in this case it's an errback, for error)
d.addErrback(on_connect_fail)
# Run the twisted main loop to make everything go
reactor.run()
I have no idea of how to go about debugging this issue. I'm very new to Twisted, and from what I understand it's a huge library.
