This is a Gnome Shell extension for monitoring a transmission-daemon or GTK app using its RPC interface.

This extension supports Gnome Shell DE from version 3.4. Note that the latest version on master may only support more recent versions (see ./[email protected]/metadata.json).

All credit for this project goes to the original author, Jean-Philippe Braun (@eonpatapon). This project was forked since maintainance has been abandoned.

Thanks as well to the many contributors who have contributed to this project --see the contributors graph for a full list!

Visit the GNOME Extensions Page.

$ git clone git://github.com/thekevjames/gnome-shell-extension-transmission-daemon.git
$ cd gnome-shell-extension-transmission-daemon
$ make install

If you have gnome-shell-devel installed, the extension will start working immediately. If not, restart the shell (atf-f2, type "r") to enable it.

The best way to find the correct version to install for support for older Gnome Shell versions is to check the GNOME Extensions Page under the Versions header. All previously released versions should be accessible as zipfile downloads there.

Some older versions have been tagged in this repo:

• the latest version supporting gnome-shell < 3.10 is tag 1.0.0
• the latest version supporting gnome-shell < 3.16 is tag 2.0.0
• the latest version supporting gnome-shell < 3.20 is tag 3.0.0

To install for those versions of gnome-shell, please follow the manual process outlined above after checking out one of the above tags.

Note that all versions since v20 should have matching tags between this repo and the GNOME Extensions Page.

You must enable the RPC interface in your transmission settings.

• for the GTK application, see preferences->remote.
• for transmission-daemon, see /etc/transmission-daemon/settings.json. Documentation for this file is on the Transmission wiki.
