Req: Direct link to download folder

[JonDubya]

I was wondering if it's possible to edit the template to make the completed download names links to the actual directory.  Example: If the nzb is "sabnzbd" it would have a url to file:///d:/downloads/sabnzbd/

If you can show how or where to do it in the history.tmpl file I'll make the change myself, just not sure where to put the code.

Figured it out,

Code: Select all

<a href="file:///D:/$line.filename/">$line.filename</a>

but it seems that FF nor Opera allow for that kind of link. Go figure ~ Any other suggestions?

SABnzbd is a client-server implementation.
Many people have SABnzbd on one system and use the UI on another one.
SABnzbd can only generate local paths, but these will be
useless on the remote system where the browser runs.

You could add this functionality to sabnzbd by adding a cherrypy handler.

What I implemented works for me.  I use sabnzbd on my desktop so everything is local.

The idea was to have a link to a folder, not to download files.

Right. It works for you, but there's no way for us to build a general case that will work everywhere, so we won't be adding this as a feature.

Just as a side note, it is easy to create a windows post-processing script to open up an explorer window when a download is complete, just create a .bat file with this in:

Code: Select all

explorer "%1"

I really like the idea of the name as a hyperlink to the download folder in the History template but can see the reason why some
people would not like it.

I would use JonDubya's edit except that different files are downloaded onto different drives and I can't for the life of me see if
that information is available, like the folder/filename.    Then again, I'm a fiddler and a meddler, not a coder

@inpheaux: Agreed. This is really what I was looking for, not so much as a full-on addition to the application.

@Eejit: Yeah, I don't have an answer for you besides download everything to one folder

Cheers
