genny VS transgui

Also of interest for people might be Genny. It’s a Nim library to automate creating language bindings for other languages. Currently it supports Python, Node, and C.

c2nim is a tool to translate ANSI C code to Nim. The output is human-readable Nim code that is meant to be tweaked by hand after the translation process. If you are tired of wrapping C library, you can try futhark which supports "simply import C header files directly into Nim". Similar to futhark, cinterop allows one to interop with C/C++ code without having to create wrappers. nimLUA is a glue code generator to bind Nim and Lua together using Nim's powerful macro. nimpy and nimporter is a bridge between Nim and Python. rnim is a bridge between R and Nim. nimjl is a bridge between Nim and Julia! Last but not least, genny generates a shared library and bindings for many languages such as Python, Node.js, C.

For those using Python, we just got our Python bindings for Pixie up onto pip. Repo here https://github.com/treeform/pixie-python

It's extremely fresh but our tests are working so consider giving it a try.

For those interested in Nim's meta-programming, we're generating those Python bindings for Pixie from our Nim code using https://github.com/treeform/genny here https://github.com/treeform/pixie/blob/master/bindings/bindi...

This explains why the only other Lazarus project I know (transgui) is very similar, a GUI to another program.

I use to use https://github.com/transmission-remote-gui/transgui with transmission, main things I liked about it was being able to register opening .torrent files with it and it had a local / remote path mapping option so if you had a share it would translate the local and remote paths.

Since outsourcing torrents to a different device (first a Pi1/2/3, now a Synology NAS), I’m happy with Transmission since it can be easily controlled via Transmission Remote GUI. Basic configuration, nothing fancy. KISS.

I would suggest troubleshooting by using the webui or transgui to connect to the daemon and make sure the torrents are going into the correct folder. Otherwise you may need to set "umask": 0 in settings.json to make sure the daemon is creating the files as global read/write, especially if the system user is running the daemon process.

Besides me rarely using magnet link, because I've setup radarr and sonarr for tv shows/movies, I think I use transgui as my client to open magnet links.

There's also transmission-web and transmission-remote-gui. Both great if your torrent system is separate from your desktop.

It's a Windows application where you can connect to your server's IP and the Transmission port, and use it as a normal torrent client, including support for handling torrent files and magnet links. You can download it here.

I run Transmission Remote GUI on my main PC connected to Transmission on my server. It automatically opens magnet links and torrent files on the remote server and feels just like using a local BT client.
